Ive done just about everything that you can do to fix what Ford messed up on the 6.0. The VT365 is actually a great motor with very little issues that is still in use and production today. Problem was when Ford got ahold of it and rush'd it into there truck.
So far- ARP studs, full Bullet Proof diesel oil cooler set up along with their upgraded water pump and all aluminum radiator. BPD upgraded EGR. 5" turbo back Diamond eye exhaust, upgraded alternator and too many mods to mention.
The 6.0 is not as bad as the hype sais. Just have to watch it and take care of the issues before they break.

We spend a week every summer at a NFS campground between Chama, NM and Antonito, CO on the Conejos River. Southern Colorado is an awesome place!
