have you thought about .......cai , 5"6,7,8,stack or stacks , egr delete, head studs, zoodad, ?
the mods are endless. exaust ,cai and studs with a tuner are almost mandatory .
when that degas bottle starts pukin' your laying into the skinny pedal lil too much .

get er done

[fatheadon1]

Had a Cai on my last 6.0 and was not happy with it. I'd like stacks but need a transfer tank where they would come into the bed so that won't work. My plans for the truck are extended life coolant, straight pipe for now then come summer I'll do egr delete oil cooler update sct fitting an head studs then she will be bullet proof. Till then the truck an I have a deal to be good to each other an not blow up lol an if it does well then it will be a project now instead of later either way I think I like this truck more then my new one

If I had to tell someone ONE thing to do to a 6.0, it would be buy a scanguage 2, its to bad they didnt have a digital read out built into the dash standard.

coolant filter and ELC coolant ASAP! and my heads are stock at 95k and i run either an SRL or innovative street since 45k. and if they didnt lift the other night when i had to show my buddy the differance between his bully dog and my SCT, i doubt they will

[fatheadon1]

well the cab is off the motor is apart and the go fast tow well parts are going in more pics to come

done so is far fresh oil cooler ford hg arp studs stc update, waiting on the brown truck for my tweaked injectors,turbo and ficm then it will be finish reassembly and track time

[thelettuceman]

That was one beautiful truck ..... What's goin' on?

[fatheadon1]

It's a planed refresh/ build up of a tow beast work truck sleeper goal is reliability an over 500 HP. But ran into a snag when the guy who was lettin me use his shop stopped lettin me use it after I already had the motor apart. So I went with plan B an pulled the cab with my buddy's bucket an buildin it up little by little as the parts come in. Should be back together in 2 weeks or so

[the new boss 92]

man that looks good, sucks your buddy bailed on you with the shop.

I have been down that same road as your truck. My last repair was much easier i traded it in for a chevy. No more ford junk in my fleet.

[fireside]

I have been down that same road as your truck.I hope you plan on changing the oil cooler and HOP since you have gone that far get it done or you will be taking it apart again. My last repair was much easier i traded it in for a chevy. No more ford junk in my fleet.

[fatheadon1]

I did all the updates. As for 1 brand being better then the other I feel they ALL have their flaws. Fords work best for what I do. If Chevy gets the job done for you better then for that's good. I have a 04 Tahoe that runs like a top but since the day I got it it's had the factory characteristics of the wipers staying on till they feel like shutting off" my neighbors 05 1500 does the same thing" an my abs an traction control lights have been on since 50k so to me the truck has its quarks but I don't have a bad thing to say as its never left me stranded. I just look like a fool after a rain storm an I'm drivin with the wipers still on.

Could you do us a favor and post that up a few more times? I'm not quite understanding.

HAHAHA!

OP: have you been running a tuner with a high hp tune? I had the block ripped down on my truck as well and its my understanding that seeing the spray patterns like that on the pistons is a sign the tuning has been ramped up a bit much. I may be wrong I have only read about that a few times.

[fatheadon1]

The truck has been tuned but not abused for 5000 miles that I have owned it. Previously my friends dad owned it an he driving harder then NASCAR hence why I pulled apart a runnin truck to refresh it

[plowingkid35]

Looks like a fun prject, we had a 6.0 and got rid of it because it became an endless money pit and decided to stick with my 7.3's, but as usual I can't be satisfied with those so i recently bought an 09' 6.4PSD so far so good 30k and strong

[fatheadon1]

I love my 6.0 partly because I understand their downfalls an fix them before problems witch is the same with the 7.3 the motor will run for ever but the auto trans is junk so one needs to deal with that no biggie either way. As for the 6.4 I got 3 and all are well an just about outta warranty so they are next on the list to be bulletproof and deleted

My business partner try talking me into the same thing as we have all fords an hes an ole school dodge guy but I'd rather wrench on my straight piped v8 then listen to the obnoxiousness noise of a 5.9 this is all personal preference I have absolutely nothing against cummins.
