if you are happy with 7.3 power and all just not the issues build one
if you want more power more cost and more bolt on mods go with a cummins
but you need motor mounts made up
mod the fan shroud
hammer the firewall
and some wiring but wiring is simple with a 6bt
then yo got the tranny you have a few options
stock ford unit with an adaptor (costly)
dodge unit moving the crossmember and if its auto youll want a manual swap dodge autos suck new drive shafts
then if you you use the dodge tranny you
use dodge t case or a divorced unit like a np205

I leaking injector will sound just like a rod knock. How old are your injectors??? To find the possible problem injector feel each hard line. If one is hot then its leaking combustion gas back up into it and pumping fuel in early to the cylinder.
