Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Horsepower??

[knebraker]

I've got a 94' 12 valve cummins with a 5 spd, 40lbs of boost, with a few mods. My question for you guys is, about how much power do you think I have,and on the clutch I have It is rated around 375 horse and if I hit the pedal just right it will slip. I plan on getting a new one this spring, here are my mods:



1. Pump turnded up with a #10 plate

2. Timing @15. 5 deg

3. K&N air intake system

4. Marine 300 injectors

5. Clutch

6. spring kit



I think my dodge is around 400 to 425 horsepower tell me what you think and if there is any other mods i should think about doing for my baby, even though she runs good like she is



Thanks

I think your estimate is over optimistic,The #10 plate makes some good torque at the low end but on a 94 pump and only 300 hp injectors?No exhaust or turbo mods?Run it on a dyno and you will know for sure where you are at now.

I would invest in some 191 Delivery Valves with a bigger plate. You will be amazed!

Chris, bubba your gonna kill me for this, but I disagree somewhere because I saw a post somewhere that d-valves didn't increase power. But hey! you have 'em I don't :-laf



P. S. you also have other stuff that was installed prior to the D-valves.

Mark, I read the same thing but I ordered them anyway from Piers, 40cc's over 181's that's 40 HP to you and me, I called Piers back and asked what were they suppose to put out cause it was like putting 370's in again, definate kick in the pants! Went from dark hazing the road to covering the road... this is just my observation, If you had enough air just go to cut DV's!

Just because your clutch is rated for 375 doesn't mean you can't slip it with less. Trust me on this one .

You are at 302 rwhp, +- 25.



Delivery valves and a bigger exhaust housing are your next cheap steps.
