[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 16281943, member: 166576"] My only concern with Godzilla is overall fuel economy. Ive certainly speculated my fair share about it, and I think being paired with the 10spd may actually help it when using as a daily. I hope so because its not even funny how much simpler the 7.3 Godzilla will be compared to the 6.7 Powerstroke. If/when I make the switch from the Excursion to the Super Duty, I have to gain MPG. Shouldn't be that hard to do considering Im running the V10. I will say though that the V10 has been a heck of a smooth running engine. Even survived the drive belt snapping from a failed tensioner in bumper to bumper traffic here in AZ few months ago. I have thought and looked into the idea of swapping the V10 for a Cummins, but its too damn much to go from a V10 gas to diesel let alone an engine not even offered in the sub F550 and under trucks. The idea of the 6.0 is that even though it had a problematic start to its life, it seems to have come along nicely. Plus, Ive read in many places that the 5 speed behind the 6.0 was a pretty stout transmisison. I looked up bulletproofdiesel.com (AZ company). Looks like I can get the power-side Bulletproof FICM board for about 200 bucks. I found a place that sells reman 6.0 injectors for about $900 and HPOPs for about $800 bucks. Refurbing the factory 6.0 Turbocharger doesnt seem too hard, and the swash plate for the variable vane section is a service part. [/QUOTE]
