    This truck is Awesome!

    I haven't been on in a while, b/c of work which is a good thing. I just wanted to say that my truck has not skipped a beat for the last two years! Allen did an awesome job on the truck and it has been running good ever since I picked it up from him 2 years ago. Knock on wood, it hasn't had any problems yet. This just shows you how well the 6.0L motors are. This engine is original in the truck when I ordered it brand new. The only thing that has been changed is the cam and springs. The rest of the motor has not been touched and it puts out some serious HP/TQ, yet drive just like a stocker.

    Thanks Allen,
    Jamest

    Thats great. My 6.0 has been doing great. Especially since it has a transmission in it.

    I love my 6.0! I hope I can find another one for a drag truck project down the road.

    12psi! She is holding up well. Daily driving, it feels like a normal stock truck, open the cutout and nail it at 55mph and instant tires spinning! The truck never gets over 180 degrees hot or cold. I just can't believe it is still together and not burning oil. This shows just how well built the 6.0L are built from the factory.

    Get it done, you will love it. The funny thing is that everyone thinks my truck is a 1/2 ton when really it is a 3/4 ton. They freak out every time when I tell them they just got beat by a 3/4 ton gas pickup.
