    Shhhh! Not so loud! I don't want them to figure out they were excluded in the picture. :lmao2::lmao:

     

     

    Not difficult when they are always inside a shop :)

    Perfect point to shove a cummins in that ford.

    Someday I will have a obs 4 door ford f350 with my motor/trans.

    Hopefully the Vin is a gasser Vin so I won't ha e t worry about diesel emissions

    Is that a picture of a "lifted" Ford??!!! :lmao2:  :cookoo:

    Soooo, what's the story behind this one?  Someone brought it in to get the valves adjusted?

    What a nightmare! Must say something about the engines inefficiency to need all that or just plain bad design. Maybe both.

    Ridiculous. Pre EGR/DPF Dodges are still holding their price. I don't know why but 2nd gens cost almost as much as 3rd gens on the used market. Every 6.0 guy I know that hasn't modified their motor has run into EGR, oil cooler and turbo issues. There's a couple guys out there that love their 6.0s, but that's because they did all the deletes. My dad just got a brand new F150 Ecoboost 2.7 V6 twin turbo, I'm scared to think what he's going to run into with all that mess under the hood.

    Thing is over on the RV forum I moderate on the Ford trucks (diesel and gas) and Ford Ecoboost are the most popular truck out there. Funny part is Dodge Cummins truck are the least most popular truck in the RV forums. Next is Chevy just below the Ford.

     

    Now not to bash on Ford solely I can nit pick about Dodge, Chevy and Ford all the same. Each have their issues but I have to draw the line at lifting the body off to do a head gasket. :rolleyes:

    Dodge isn't too much better now with the newer 6.7L EGR cooler, DPF, etc...

    Most are lifting the cabs / front clip to do engine work on the Duramax too. Not sure how long it takes to lift one of those but all the guys who have done them on the Fords say 1.5- 2 hours to have it lifted off the frame.
