Goodmorning gents. Yeah, it didn't rain too much up here in M-town. Sorry to hear about your dad Aaron, and hope the bank gets their head out of their...rear...so you can get your truck. If you want any help getting some of that stuff on let me know. I need something to do dang it! Sucks when you can't afford the stuff you want to do to your own truck. I need to some progress somewhere, may as well be on your truck, haha.

7.3 was what i really wanted but low miles and rust free were more important so......6.0 it is. after reading up on them i feel like they got a bad rep when they first came out and never grew out of it. i dont think any engine ever will compare to the reliability of the 7.3 though. ray's 6.7's are doing well so far, and apparently he gets a reflash for 10 more horse coming out soon.
