[glnmllr]

I have a 2004 350 6.0 power stroke and would like some opinions of chipping it. I dont know much about performance chips and things of that nature. just looking for some ideas and tips. thanks

the 6.0 is a good moter but it has a weak point with the head gasket if you put to much boost to it bully dog make a good programer for them but there are lots more out there check out ford powerstroke forum there is a welth of info there

The 6.0 powerstroke is a huge POS and Jasper can prove this.Jasper puts in over 30 improvements for the 6.0 starting starting with the first year 6.0s.I seen the sheet of the improvements Jasper puts in for improvements.6.0s do have injector problems too

You deffinitly don't want to replace the head gaskets on these engines. From what my Ford tech friend told me they are a pain in the A** and very expensive. I have heard nothing but problems comming from chipping these engines. Be careful

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I know people that have had nothing but good with the 6.0 and I also know some people who have all sorts of problems. I dont know if I will chip it or anything, I was looking for advice before I make a decision.

This is thre last year for the powerstroke,Ford is building their own diesel,called a Scorpian diesel.and Ford should of put in the Cummins in instead.Ford owns 51% of Cummins.There is a shop in Montana that is making money,doing Powerstroke to Cummins swaps and has a long list.If you here Cat is making Ford's new Diesel,it is 100% incorrect and Cat quit making truck engines.Cat's diesel truck engines do not meet emission standards and this is the reason why.
