You need a Bosch pump.
I think the nozzles would be the first thing to change out.

more like 750 to the wheels if transmission stays the same.I don't think 850 hp to the fly wheel is out of the question with with a Cat pump and Cat injectors.
My dad did 500 hp to the wheels with his 3407C with weak stock 425 Cat injectors, a Borg Warner stock replacement turbo, 3/4 a hole of timing and 3 1/2 turns of of fuel. Figuring 25% driveline loss and that's 600 hp to the flywheel. He's since put 25% over injectors, a Borg Warner billet S475 and still 3 1/2 turns of fuel. He says it has way more power than when it was on the Dyno 2 years ago.
My dad also has a 3406B in his puller. It has never been on the Dyno but it's a very strong engine. Hoping to get it on the Dyno this spring. That engine has 100% over injectors, full hole of timing and many different turbos from a stock Cat to a Holset HC5a.
Depending on what your doing with it I believe 850 hp at the fly wheel is achievable with a Cat pump and Cat injectors. That's 635 hp to the wheels.

you removed only 1 screw ? I took out both from the truck I posted a Youtube hillclimb video some time ago. It doesn't smoke almost at all when under boost, says something about B-pump capacity. Oversize nozzles might help a little bit but I think anything over 30% is harmful. If you can keep it fueling maximum up to 3000 rpm then it might get close to 800+I have the fuel backed all the way out, I literally removed the one and it's in the ashtray...

Red needle nose KW, 3406, cat pump, and Bosch nozzles. The nozzle is the limiting factor.

What size nozzle or injectors and who did them? That's how I want it to run!
I'm gonna say everything came from cyclone machine or Columbus diesel, they don't give out information.
Oh, I talked to them, they use 17mm b&P's and dual or triple feed tractor injectors... Outta my price range, lol
73 KW W923 out for a drive - YouTube
My 73 KW W900a with an 855 Cummins. I should do this again because the Jakes aren't working in this video, and I think they sound cool as hell.

Just an FYI,
I talked to Columbus Diesel today, and they have 13mm B&P's in the works to go directly into the Cat 3406b pump, they are 3-4 months out on being ready for public release. They are hoping to have them before first of the year and then do some testing for month or 2 after that...

Fricken beautiful pete. The more and more I look at these custom trucks the more I want one lol. Definitely a benefit of running trucks vs being a railroader, you get to customize your ride.
