    What kind of fuel mileage does a regular cab 6.5 auto 4x4 get? Found one that might be cheap at a farm auction supposedly had a dead fuel pump.

    Loss of Torque???

    Hpop is probably toast, early build hpop's were a bad design and have a finite lifetime.

    Loss of Torque???

    I don't like the idea of a 6.0 with a tuner unless you have head studs.

    Loss of Torque???

    Vgt turbo doesnt use vacuum for control. Pcm pwm solenoid controls oil pressure to change turbo. 6.0 totally different than a 7.3

    Loss of Torque???

    Cat or muffler plugged up possibly. 03 doesn't use the EBP sensor anymore. one of the original reflashes took care of that.

    Just bought y first 6.0 loved my 7.3

    6.7's are the first to be detuned a bunch, they are 300hp (chassis cab or narrow frame) vs. 400hp for wide frame (pickup box trucks). IIRC some of the 6.4 trucks were like 25 or 50 detuned.

    Just bought y first 6.0 loved my 7.3

    None of the factory reflashes affected power level. A recall on an 04 was probably for elimination of using ebp, those early ones now use an inferred exhaust pressure reading. They also had a customer satisfaction thing for us to test drive, verify no driveability issues and reflash to the...

    Just bought y first 6.0 loved my 7.3

    Ya we can't turn power levels up or down with factory scan tools, the only thing we can do is update to newer factory software. Chase

    Replaced original Injectors at 266,000 Miles

    The shaking might be caused by a worn injection pump. Mine did that after changing injectors up until the pump crapped out a couple months later. Chase

    Champion Radiators for the IDI

    Those Radiators are now plastic tank crimped jobs. I ordered one for my truck cause I needed it right then, went ahead and installed it, I'll see how long it lasts. The thing vibrates like mad when idling so I doubt that it will last. At least it has a lifetime warranty right......
