    6.0 makes mroe power, sounds better just less reliabilty. You better have a good reason to swap diesel in though cause it is a lot of work.

    Ohhh, I see. Well I'd throw a turbo on like an STS. They sound amazing and make power.

    I've got a good buddy who bought him a...2006, i think, F-250 with a 6.0 and he's already poured 10K into a already $26K truck. replaced egr valve, had studs put in the cylinder heads, and something else. He had a programmer and the motor flat couldn't handle the extra power. My cummins will take all you can give it
