    I sure wish they still had the 300 6 that is what my wood hauler has in it and it has to be one of the most dependable engines ever.

    Thanks guys! I’ve had it since about 2012, only put about 2-3000 miles on it a year. Put exhaust on it, and started a turbo setup for it, but always lost motivation and money. I still need a fmu and a few adapters to finish it out, have the turbo, intercooler, injectors etc.

    Now I’m getting around to fixing it back up a little bit and upgrading as I go. Next step it to respray the hood as its clear coat is shot.
