looking for 466 fly cut pistons

[IHinsanity]

I have a 706 rearend with dt 466 engine...as of now engine is naturally apirated and has naturally aspirated pistons in it...As I have been told by some that there is a difference? looking to turbocharge engine and go for a hot farm class with 466 c.i. limit...any information on a good start to help point in the right direction with the engine would be appreciated

I don't know alot but heres what I do know. If your looking for stock type pistons for the turboed motors here is a site that sells them.

If your looking for more performance pistons here are a few places to call and check and they will be pricer of course. I haven't bought from either but I plan on giving them a call when I start my build (i'm doing a DT360).

lookin to go more on the performance side of things...the cylinder head has been ported and polished on tha tractor but dont know if there is a difference betweeen porting a head with a turbo as oppose to one without?

I know that I have heard people say not to use N/A heads such as a IH 986 head that it doesn't respond good when a turbo is installed. hypermax is also a good place to talk to about high hp IH's they told me it would cost about 10-15K to get a 1000hp out of a 466. A place for some good info is www.pulloff.com i'm sure someone on there will be able to point you in the right direction.

New to tractor pulling and first post at Competition Diesel

Bought a 1466, pulled engine down, having cyl head and cam worked on here in local shop, decided to go to a 466 crank, We would like to stay in the farm stock class but dont think it will pass inspection due to the A pump on the tractor. have gone through the Ta and installed a HY-Cap heavy duty puller TA.
Can we run this 466 @ 3500 RPMs??

I am pondering my turbo and pump needs? I see you guys talk about 3LM turbos. Would like some advice on this tractor. We have some hot JDs pulling up here and would like to give them a run for their $$$

Thank you!

Guys I am sorry,

I posted in the wrong place.

After taking the head off of engine it does have domed pistons as wanted for a turbo charged engine I take it? With the head being port and polished and the pistons having valve reliefs cut in them I assume the cam has been cut? Just tryin to figure out where to go with engine from this point...any info will be helpful...thanks
