It should run without the turbo I guess. If a guy wanted to see how deep he might be into a motor it would be a good idea and check it out and try to get it to pop without a new turbo just yet.

I need to bring you guys up to speed on a few things. I purchased this 2008 E450 to serve as a donor vehicle for an engine swap.
I have a 1997 E350 Airstream 190 class B rv. It's an extended van with a high roof and all the RV stuff in it, shower, kitchen, generator, all that stuff. This came factory with a V10 and I'm looking to swap a 6.0 in to it.
I like the 6.0. I've owned one before. Back in 2005 I bought an E450 new. I kept it for 7 years, but only put 19K on it. It never gave me any trouble.
Since I liked 6.0 setup in my E450, I was thinking of swapping a 6.0 in to the 97 Airstream. However, with all the research I've been doing on the 6.0 lately I'm getting a little scared.
Long story short, I want to make sure I'm going to do this swap before I drop the $170 on a Scan Guage.
In the mean time, I'm going to part out the E450. It only has about half the parts I need for the swap anyway. If I do the swap I'm going too look for a newer E350 like mine with the 6.0 that is wrecked, one that runs!

m-chan68,
If anything I would just leave it alone with the V10. I only paid $5,400 for the Airstream, I stole it. I'm also already remodeling the inside. These Airstream vans were built really well, a lot of newer stuff is built pretty cheap. Also, any newer class B is going to cost $$$. Especially if it's diesel. Some newer B's are on Mercedes Benz Sprinter vans. Actually the Mercedes van might be good quality, but get out that pocketbook!

I got the following pending codes:
P0312
C2026
P1426
P1700
And the following hard code:
P1260
Here's what's interesting. The E450 does not have PATS. I cleared all the codes and none of them returned.
