If it's a 6.0 that is still running good, you got a good one...it can't hurt to throw the head studs and such at it, but it would be up to you if you did a tune. Do NOT do a tune without supporting mods.

If there are currently no issues with the truck I would suggest leaving it alone. Good maintenance goes a long way. If you haven’t done a coolant flush and replace with ELC you need to. If you don’t have a way of monitoring deltas and other key PIDs you need one. You also need to monitor fuel pressure. If I’m keeping the truck, I wouldn’t do the studs unless I had the heads checked out or replaced, and the block deck surface dressed up.

Head over to the 6.0 section of the forum for lots of good information on this platform.
