The biggest, baddest on highway truck engine ever produced has just been purchased by Mr. Frank Hieden of Houston, Texas. Frank is now a member of the KTTA-HVT exclusive club that has only about five members in the United States. The Cummins KTTA-HVT is a mechanical K series 1150 cubic inch engine that is equipped with twin turbos and hydraulic variable timing (HVT). The stock factory horsepower rating is 750. Pat Sharp, the fuel pump technician and Brian Moan, the injector specialist at Diesel Injection of Pittsburgh, PA. have the combination of fuel settings to enable this beast of an engine to produce between 1,000 and 1,200 horsepower. As far as the writer knows there are only five of these engines in use in trucks in the USA.
These guys know Cummins...I bought a fuel kt from them for my NTC 300 very easy retrofit...Good Luck.
