Hey guys, I picked up this Oliver 1855 for $500 because they hit a tree with it. Picked up a front end shipped for $380 , took it to work, hung it on the dyno, cranked the old rosa master up and got 125hp out of it. I'd like to pull it at local pulls and be competitive in the 3000 rpm off the farm class. Is it feasible to get 300 ish hp out of a turbo waukashaw? Who does pumps and injectors for these and what turbo? Thanks for your time and help. Ill post pics when I figure out how to on my phone

Im not sure what size you have, but on a 310 waukashaw it will take more than just turbo and pump upgrades, and once you get there, it can be hard to keep it together.

My neighbor pulls a 1950T with a 310, it runs good. Put a 39 or 45 head on the pump and a bigger charger it'll run pretty well.
But it won't keep up in a 3k rpm class because you don't have enough cubes to run with those guys
