[QUOTE="F-127, post: 115067, member: 966"] Alright, doing(should say did) a complete engine teardown. I have a 03 F-250 equipped with a 6.0 with 203k miles. Looking for opinions on things to do or something I may have overlooked. No major issues with the engine, had a moderate exhaust leak at the manifold on one port, EGR system was still present. Previous owner had been running intake/exhaust/tuner but that's about it. Doing some preventative maintenance got carried away into complete teardown since I'm looking for a nice DD year round. Not an unlimited budget but I'm looking to do things right once(hopefully). The ride: [ATTACH=full]69015[/ATTACH] Me getting carried away: [ATTACH=full]69016[/ATTACH] [B] Things at the machine shop:[/B] Block decked, initial talks with machine shop, block needed .005-.008 to be trued up. Cylinder bores, perfect, honing to be completed. Balancing the rotating assembly. Pistons, cut as needed from decking block. Cylinder heads to be checked over. [B]Things from Ford:[/B] Gaskets and seals for complete rebuild, LPOP, HPOP, piston rings/bearings, oil cooler kit, thermostat, glowplugs, cam and crank sensors, turbo pedistal(mine has a TSB out about a moan/droan), fuel pump(ebay), fuel regulator spring at fuel filter housing, turbo drain tube, IPR and ICP sensor [B]Aftermarket/Other[/B] EGR delete, coolant filter kit, Powermax turbo, ARP head studs, FICM tuning and ECM/TCM rollback from PHP. Going with a 05+ intake horn/elbow and manifold. Edge CTS with EAS pryo and fuel pressure. Fuel banjo bolts(ebay) I'm considering replacing the HPOP discharge tube, if replaced the only o-rings in the HPO system that weren't touched would be the ones in the line going from the standpipes to the HPO 'logs'. For the turbo supply, I see no issue with the quick connect fitting there instead of the o-ring and hold-down clamp. Considering tapping a couple ports into the upper oil pan for a possible engine oil bypass or extra turbo drain someday. So anything I'm missing? Any recommendations? I appreciate the help and will keep things posted as they go back together. [/QUOTE]
