I can attach the entire build sheet to a reply if you send me an email. It will not display correctly in the forums or as a PM.

Let me know if you need help finding a WCC ASC, which will be required to have WCC/Navistar pay for and complete the recall. Good luck, Ed

Thanks Ed. It is not bad news for me. I am thankful you caught it. Bamaguy911 mentioned another recall I will have checked. Thanks to both of you for the help.You can email me at titus2grace@gmail.com

I put a full Banks system on, so no more problems. I like the low RPM torque compared to the V10 Fords. Mileage is about the same, but as I have always said, "If you are worried about fuel mileage, stay home"
Happy Glamping.

One of the leading causes for cracked exhaust manifold/s (if not the leading cause)...quick shutdown after grade pull and/or long highway run. I always allow the engine to run for 3-5 mins prior to shutdown if I pull off the highway and/or exit after a grade pull.
