About Summit 7.3

It started as a thought while sipping coffee on a Sunday morning and became a groundbreaking movement reshaping our industry.

Where Builds, People, and Ideas Come Together

Our vision for Summit 7.3 was to establish a platform where industry professionals could learn from and collaborate with each other. We aimed to create an environment of open dialog, shared knowledge, and mutual growth within the 7.3L PSD community.

We are thrilled to report that Summit 7.3 has been a huge success! We extend our deepest gratitude to our sponsors, vendors, speakers, and support staff. Together, all of us are driving the future of 7.3L diesel performance.

– Bill and Angela Cohron, Power Hungry Performance

Summit 7.3 continues to grow because people keep coming back.

endors like RD2 Fuel Systems have been part of the event since the beginning, showing up year after year, contributing to swag bags, and connecting with customers face-to-face. Many attendees travel across state lines just to be here, not only for the event itself, but to spend time with people they’ve built online relationships with throughout the year. It’s common to see attendees meeting up, sharing builds, and learning from each other in ways that go beyond a typical event experience.

The conversations don’t stop when the event ends either. Through the Diesel Alliance platform and our Facebook group, attendees stay connected, share updates, and continue learning. Attendees are encouraged to join early, ask questions, and share what they want to see covered, from technical topics to business strategies. This input helps guide speaker content and overall event direction, making Summit 7.3 something the community actively builds together.

It creates an opportunity to stay connected, even for those who can’t attend in person due to work schedules or budget constraints. Through this platform, attendees can continue learning, revisit content, and stay involved.

Built for Discussion, Not Just Presentations

Speakers at Summit 7.3 are selected for their real-world experience, whether that’s deep technical expertise in the diesel space or proven success in building and running businesses. These sessions are not sales pitches—they’re built around real stories, practical strategies, and lessons learned from people who have done the work. Attendees gain insight into diagnostics, operations, team management, and what it actually takes to grow within this industry.

Presentations are interactive, with open Q&A and real-time discussion, so you’re not just listening—you’re part of the conversation. If you’re looking to sharpen your skills, think differently, and walk away with ideas you can actually use, these sessions are worth being in the room for.

The summit celebrates the enduring legacy of the 7.3 while inviting the entire industry to participate in shaping its future.
