[QUOTE="FourEyed, post: 1537458, member: 11078"] Well here we are once again. I'm right at 198k, Just 30k since I did the top end, (and thought about pistons), and now have a cracked piston. Rebuild time. It happened out of nowhere, and I just got back from a 1100 mile trip with the camper and the truck ran perfect... until it didn't. This time, I decided to tackle the job myself. Since I have a nice space, but no lift. The engine is coming out the front. I'm semi mechanically inclined, but not a pro by any means. Hopefully some of you will catch some mistakes I'm bound to make. I don't dd the truck, and don't drive it in winter. So all I have is time. Once I get it out, I'm going to have my block rebuilt. Do some form of coated pistons, cam, and possibly try to go for more power while I'm there. Truck is in great shape, so instead of spending $60k+ on a new truck, I will make this one new. Here's the rough plan.. Send injectors out to get tested (RCD)? Was running GH tunes, open to anything Coated HD pistons RCD stage 2 cam Heads, Lifters, pushrods, rockers, etc all have 30k on them, hoping to re-use Rebuild transmission and do converter (starting to slightly slip) HPFP - Chance it with the 200k one, or replace while out? Debating drop in turbo, still doing research. Don't really want to do a dual fueler setup. My buddy 2stangs8689 with the rescue in his 6.0.

Wasn't too bad to this point. Just taking my time.
