Should put you into the 500+ range real easy. Personally I like to call it quits at 600 to the wheels unless I'm going to pull it apart and widen out the top ring gaps, and do other helper things like rod bolts and what not.

Hope you like it! Sounds like it will be a badass!

Hmmm good to know, thanks for the input! So I'm guessing 620 to 650 to the wheels would be pushing huh ?

Yeah, especially for a hot day in Dallas, that's gonna be pretty brutal. I'd call 600 the limit.

Sorry if that's not what you wanna hear, but I stuck a ring land before and broke a piston all to crap. And I don't think you wanna have to go through those pains. :/

On 8psi through a 6.2 I would expect 550 on a reasonably safe tune. If you get aggressive, I think 600+ is definitely possible depending on the setup.

Aren't the 6.2's rated at 403 HP at the crank? So camping it and getting 422 rwhp doesn't take much imo. Thus why I wish I woulda got a 6.2 instead of the 6.0..
