need advice on how to build a high horsepower c-16

Good day to you all. I'm seeking advice on how to go about putting together a powerful c-16 for my project truck. I have read about fuel wires, marine cams, stage 5 turbos and all but don't know how to start all this. I'm building the truck ground up from scratch and sure could any advice you folks might be willing to give me. Thanks for your time.

 

seems most the threads I've read speak of about 800 hp. That would more than suffice. Guess I'm just looking a bit more than norm. Guess you might call it looking for bragging rights. And thanks for the reply.

 

Thanks folks for the replies. JAS, I'm starting from scratch so I would love to hear more about the c-18. I've heard about that twin turbo c-18 rated at 950 hp but no one at the cat place seems to know anything about it. How hard would it be to convert an industrial engine to truck specs?

 

550hpw900L, sure 800 hp is worth bragging about. Especially after drving 475hp company rigs, but I like you're line of thinking. I just didn't want to get too crazy with the hp as I'm wanting to set this truck up with a 3 pedal auto from eaton-fuller.

 

One more thing to all the folks who have or will respond to this tread. Once I have an idea of all the parts that I'll need, where do I find part numbers for all of it so I can start collecting the parts?
