I've read your posts and know you're young, so am I but if you have it heavily modified kiss a warranty bye bye and get ready for more than you bargained for as far as parts and maintenance goes. oh and a fully built Goerend tranny isn't cheap but it's worth every penny IMO
thats why I said 5.9 or 6.7.

it my understanding that the tranny in the 6.7s is alot tougher, just dont know if i want to get into emissons mess. but everyone seems to think that after the deltes there is wayy more truck there then there is with the 5.9s
