Default new build

I am starting a new build but nothing compared to the beauties you guys build. Its just going to be simple quick and cheap.

Searching for a MDT and I will install the largest camper with a slide I can find on the frame and over the cab. Unfortunately most seem to be fleet trucks and i have two questions if you will indulge me.

1. How much length minimum do I need to allow for the flatbed to accommodate the gooseneck hitch?



2. Most of these trucks have small HP motors like a cat C7 or DT446. Can i dial these up to 300ish HP or am I starting over with a new motor?

Thanks
