Re: once you blow black you will never go back!
 
for just the studs and gaskets, yes. If you know what your looking at theres a few extras in there ;)

Re: once you blow black you will never go back!
 
now, can you just replace headgaskets on those without pulling the cab? and you only have to pull it if you stud it? iv heard different things. and that aint ---- for black smoke. how about a 60 series detroit with 7 inch stacks.

Re: once you blow black you will never go back!
 
You can do gaskets without pulling the cab and you can do studs but you need to pull the heater box. Ford designed it this way and its the easiest way but If you didn't have a 2 post then I guess it wouldn't be easy. The cab comes off pretty quick, f150's do to. :P

Re: once you blow black you will never go back!
 
... so why did you pull the cab exactly?
for BHG only? :(

shitty :X

Okay well most headgaskets anyways :P What's going on there i dont know ---- about diesels other then the fact we blew donuts in the middle of the highway in dvst8r's Cummins >:D

accordepicenter 05-18-2008 11:22 PM

Re: once you blow black you will never go back!
 
that is the fastest way to change heads or head gaskets in F250-550 diesels, just pull the cab right off. Its not as bad as it sounds, the entire job is a ----- though

Was the oil leak your Injector control pressure sensor by chance? I had to do mine on my 03 6.0 about 6 months ago, but i didn't have the luxury of removing the cab, what a ------- ----- of a job that was.

6.4's are impressive engines. There is a guy making 500whp on intake, exhaust and programmer. I'd still take a 5.9 or 6.7 though.

yes, I was talking stock to stock. They are just starting to really figger the 6.4 out, The majic "easy" number to get seams to be 430 on the 6.0l and 500 on the 6.4l. I still like the 6.0l better just because I can work on it easier. Ever tryed doing anything to a 6.4 :l

It's not bad from a roll, but it's a stick, so it's kinda slow from a dig. Smashed my buddies 7.3L with a 5" exhaust and an edge on kill. Even with the play tires on it. :y but 50psi and a stock 400,000km's + hg don't play well together. :1

50 psi on a stock turbo?

HomeMadeTurboz 05-23-2008 03:13 AM

Re: once you blow black you will never go back!
 
Not stock to that truck, but it is stock... It's an HX35.12 vs the H1C.18 that came on it. Just spools a little quicker. Yeah the Egt's get a little toasty if I stay into it for any time (1500+ pre turbo is easy) I have a GT4294 to go as a primary once this HG gets sorted out.
