6.0 Mileage

How many miles do you have on your stock 6.0 without studs or how many miles did you get on your 6.0 until you had to stud it?

The po did the egr delete when the oil cooler was done. If he hadnt done it, i would have. im not a fan of recirculating bs back through my motors. Next mod on my hd will be a crankcase breather kit routing all the crap out to atmosphere instead of back in the intake. I just hate the whole idea. Ive cleaned out an isx15 egr elbow and we got enough soot to cover the top of a 55 gallon drum (heaped pile).

210,000 km

It made it to the 100,000km mark before it needed everything from head gaskets up.

I bought it needing all the work, it was a former plow truck

I have a 2005 F350. Bought it in 2013 with 26,000 on it and in December, with 41,000 miles on it I had to replace the oil cooler, EGR cooler and the heads.
ARP studs were done at that time.
