and im still waiting for complex to explain how the design of the cab affects the motor itself.

people hate on the 6.0l but if your not an idiot it really is a good motor, the more people learn about it the more power/reliability it has gotten. Head studs and updated gaskets do wonders, minws getting those in the spring and retuned :P

Saw a cool sticker once, I'd rather be cumming than stroking! BTW refer to line #3 in my sig, despite their lesbian hyjinx.


There are lots of places that deal just with diesel turbos. Garrett actually makes most of its money from the diesel side of things, gasoline turbos are just a 'me too' side-business for them. The seals in newer journal bearing turbos are typically piston-style, and to get at them you remove the comp wheel. That almost necesitates a rebalance, and its nothing even close to balancing a mower blade. :1

He could also get a new snail, as said turbo places usually just treat them like another part of the eninge and offer a decent core exchange.


BTW you truck people sound like girls arguing over which Backstreet Boy is hotter. "OMG Joey is sooo hotter than Lance!"
