Hmm.. you could do that. Use propane and nitrous as the boost and extra
fuel. That's not going to be a long lived engine though.
I still want to see under that hood.

No, they don't last long but that's how they do it. They don't use nitrous
either just the propane I think. They have whole events here racing just
diesel trucks.

It's impressive because considering the weight of that truck, there is some
SERIOUS power under the hood of that thing. They must have wrote a big check
to Gale Banks or someone similar in order to get that truck moving like
that.
I plugged this truck into a drag racing analyzer program that has been VERY
accurate. It has been verified with several known combinations and is
usually within .01-.02 seconds of the actual times these cars run. They
don't have a diesel option, but a vehicle doesnt know what is turning the
driveshaft, so it should be relatively close.
I assumed a 6000# truck and a 200# driver. Obviously the gearing and RPM
will be different for a diesel, but this program calculates net horsepower
required to move a vehicle to a certain speed through the traps. According
to the program, this thing would need 800 horsepower at the peak RPM. Since
I know squat about diesels, I'll assume that the peak RPM would be 4000?
Based on the torque to horsepower formula, this thing makes about 1050
ft-lbs of torque at 4000 RPM.
Very impressive indeed.

Re: OT: Holy Crap!
I saw this done to a Dodge on "Trucks", a saturday morning show where they
do projects like this sometimes. I think the "Trucks" host got all his stuff
here: http://www.bullydog.com/ Propane injection and nitrous (tranny and
drivetrain work had been completed beforehand). Diesels are built to take
that kind of power, but driving like the guy in the video, it prolly won't
last long.
