[QUOTE="ncollins64, post: 1564318, member: 8604"] Well I know you will get mixed answers here, and although I have a few 6.7s now and love them, I still have a 6.4 too and I’ve always had a soft spot for them. And knock on wood, out of the hundreds of thousands of miles I’ve put on the 6.4s I’ve never once had a problem. I over maintenance and prevent problems before they arise. In your situation I’d do a few things. Check compression and blow by, if all checks out good id pull the engine and fix it right. Oem oil cooler kit, thermostats, coolant line fix,and head gaskets, stone the block surface for the heads, A1 studs, depending on budget reuse the heads or get new from kdd (not reman). Heavier valve springs, pushrods from rcd and also get some new genuine Johnson lifters and new oem rocker assemblies. Reseal everything including oil pan etc. fuel injector line and o ring kit, front and rear seals, and like I said depending on budget do some 6.0 manifolds and some new up pipes and updated radiator hoses and maybe a coolant filter too. Always use ford oil and fuel filters, drain your lower fuel filter often, run fuel treatment in the winter at minimum, use good oil, and get good tuning. I can help with that too. Other than that drive the heck out of it. O and as far as the trans goes, depending on the build date I’d make sure it has the updated newer style internal trans filter. [/QUOTE]
