Late 08' they changed the plug design once again. I believe for 08' more noise reduction chambers were put into the intake and possibly a resonator put on the exhaust. Hopefully an 08' owner can chime in and confirm things.
The 6.4l boys have been getting good mpg increases with via a DPF delete and tuning however it voids the warranty in heartbeat. The EPA must not know squat about internal combustion engines. Reducing emissions and burning more fuel doing it, just doesn't add up for me. If the EPA would ditch the DPFs for now we could have diesels that get great rpgs and have more power to boot.

I thought that was a roomer not sure though I also heard they were going to make it so you cant buy 2 strokes for small engines, they already outlawed the sales of banshees in the US.

Is this a truck with the Alison trans? I have only heard real good things about that tranny, could just be a fluke.
