No quad steer. It would have much larger flairs on the back. The flairs actually look awesome, there is one I see occasionally around me.

Default Tc??

Torn between the 2600 and 2800 PI Triple-disc. Does anybody have any experience in this area with a big heavy truck? Also any good points of contact to purchase, or pretty much $1,050 anywhere?

I would certainly go 2800 at least. I tow with a 3200 FTI and have Dmax cooler and it stays nice and cool!

2800 PI triple disc on order today. Now, on to the fueling, what do I need to support 800hp on this rig beside injectors. Do I need a double pump in the tank or sump it? Also does anybody make a complete fuel system kit to upgrade to? So far I have no experience in this area. Thanks!!

e85 is located next door to my house. plus its a suburban so i can carry 37 gallons to get me to the next e85 station, so im thinking e85???
I have 80lbs injectors which should carry me into to 700hp with e85.

Located this Hellmann fuel tank sump, and it looks like it would work out nicely. Still don't know if this is necessary.

Looks like a great starting point and a nice build. I would have run a little more compression if it was me but it should haul the mail when you get it going.
