Chevy C10 Truck With A Triple Turbo Duramax

Brett Deutsch received this truck from his Grandfather when he was 15 years old. Over many years the truck featured many different small-block Chevy V8s. But Brett is a diesel mechanic and always wanted this Chevy to be powered by diesel.

In 2010 he lifted a Duramax and Allison transmission from a Workhorse bus and installed a Danville Performance VGT 68mm turbo. With this setup it ran 11.0 seconds in the quarter-mile. Then in 2011 the truck received a twin-turbo setup and was able to get 10.6 seconds in the quarter-mile. After bending all eight connecting rods, a new motor was built with stronger internals. This setup helped the truck reach 9.4 seconds in the quarter-mile.

Brett soon wanted to start racing in NHRDA ProStreet class and work began building the monster Duramax engine you now see. The engine has Wagler Comp cylinder heads on top of a Danville Performance motor and Rossler Turbo 400 transmission. The triple turbo system was built by HSP Diesel and uses Bullseye Power turbochargers. This combo was good for a World Record of 8.81 seconds at 158 mph. Even though it is a quarter-mile beast, Brett drives this truck daily and it still runs A/C.
