Rocky31186 Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Keep some head gasket in a can with you! Once bullet proofed they are great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Nice looking truck. I can see me doing something like this, once the current projects free up some $. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRTurbo04 Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Good looking rig, ugly as sin guard though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franchi Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Good looking truck, congrats. Always loved the sound of a 6.0 with good turboback, sounds like a jet liner. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supldys Posted April 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Good looking truck, congrats. Always loved the sound of a 6.0 with good turboback, sounds like a jet liner. :-) Oh yeah, I won't even realize I haven't had the radio on for an hour because I'm listening to the motor. Already threw a catch can on to keep the oil out of the intercooler, put in a coolant filter, and put in some synthetic rotella. Head studs are on the list but gotta find enough free time for it. I like that guard! Mostly as a step stool to get into that engine bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeitgeist57 Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 What was the latest year these F250s were available in a diesel/stick shift combo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supldys Posted April 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Clay, I think the 6.4 still had it so 2010 would be the last Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeesammy Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) What was the latest year these F250s were available in a reliable diesel/stick shift combo? Whenever the last 7.3 rolled off the line. Edited April 6, 2016 by Geeesammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRTurbo04 Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Whenever the last 7.3 rolled off the line. Not that early, it was 2008-2010 range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustlestiltskin Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Nice color choice. Square it away and you should have a nice running dizzle for years to come. That front brush guard would pull quite the premium a week before deer hitting warz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble Maker Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 I was looking for another goat, but they never show up out here I can imagine finding one anywhere in even just ok running order is going to be hard, given their original numbers and current age.

supldys Posted April 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Had some falling FICM voltage numbers so opened it up and re-soldered the capacitors and cleaned up the contacts, solid 48V all day now. Never really thought about coolant filters before I put one on this truck. Just changed the first one and it was pretty nasty even after I had flushed it thoroughly last month. Now I'm an advocate for these things haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supldys Posted May 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Did the "blue spring" upgrade today, it's supposed to add about 10psi of fuel pressure. I didn't notice anything, except that my leak at the fuel pressure regulator is fixed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
