    You could say 1200hp is almost impossible. I have heard many race Cummins engine builder say they have 1200-1300hp but when they were dynoed they usually had something like 1050hp. 900 is possible for working truck. I think STC engines can idle without smoke even with big injectors.

    The big deal is power, who cares about looks. If it don't run, chrome it.

    STC engines can idle nice with big injectors .

    I have one with 370mm injectors and it idles like stock .

    I thought it was a Big Cam in that truck on the video?
