In regards to the transmission build, one of our vendors was able to build it for us. As far as i know hes the only one stateside that build the 8hp75. The 8hp90 from hellcat and other vehicles did not have enough info on specific parts we wanted to use for the build. Trusted our guy and he got it done. Zero slip what so ever. On non built trans we had clutch slip around the high 600 tq range.

The power level of the truck does not effect how the meth kit runs. The meth kit is its own separate system. The pump being elevated above the tank is irrelevant since it is a bottom feeding gravity tank.

Wow that thing looks nice, but am I the only one who thinks 750HP is very low considering all the work done? I could have sworn I saw one with 720HP with a tune and downpipes.

tune and dp is low 600 i believe. 750 wasn't easy. also we have to take into account this is the highest HP + tq we have seen so we are in uncharted territory. We can fine tune a little more but we do NOT want Steven to have any issues with reliability.

Thats 750WHP which would put this thing well over 800hp at the crank. Seems like a huge bump from the 567HP from a stock car.

Just confirmed it was 722 to the wheels with tune, downpipes and exhaust, but it was posted by ecutuninggroup so never mind lol. I've seen plenty of posts by them claiming crazy numbers but can't back it up. So disregard my original post lol.
