Mark I'm sorry that I didn't see this earlier, but I would like to chime in here. I can't speak as eloquently as the others, but you do a damn fine job and a thread like this is long overdue to bring attention to a person that does so much and does so willingly and gladly.

Good job Mark.

Quit being so shy and humble. You've worked more than hard for this, that's for sure. MANY MANY thanks to you for all your information and help. You are a STAND UP GUY for sure.

I want to add to the "Thanks"

The spread sheets have been very helpful in many ways, and all the knowledge Mark has shared is just amazing.

Thank you Mark for your time.

And thanks to the Techs here that are so willing to give of their expertise.

I have never learned so much about any vehicle I have owned, than this 6.0L.

I grew up in the diesel world....but did not know much about powerstrokes when I made the switch to Ford.....with no regrets I might add!

The wealth of information passed on here is nothing short of amazing.

My thanks to Mark, and of course all the techs (Cheezit and company), and senior members here on this site that spend there spare time too help others.

Cheers to all.....

Learning something..... wait..... let the bashing begin!!!!!!


Geez.....


Just joking.... had this been a real emergency.... you would have been directed to your nearest "Bismic" for further assistance and updates. Please stay tuned for further information.
