Replacing a hpop on this truck will do nothing but add another voice that curses the 6.0. Tossing parts and not fixing the underlaying issue is picture book of what I hear on a regular basis at the shop. Yank the engine back out,, and fix it right.

Anthony, you stole the words right out of my mouth. If I read correctly, the OP is still farting around trying to get his high pressure oil psi up to spec, to get the truck to run. If I also read correctly, he states he is STILL not getting low pressure oil, correct? If that is the case, why throw an expensive HPOP at it?

Sounds like this is getting to be a real expensive band aid, real fast.
