[QUOTE="BrewTown, post: 1544916, member: 31811"] I have a scenario I could use some help with. I want a hybrid like many others. I want a 7.3 CCSB with '05+ axles and brakes. I own an 01 ZF6 with a bad cylinder (oil ring found on magnetic drain plug) and an 05 6.0 that I daily and occasionally tow. Am I better off starting with a 7.3 truck, and axle swapping? ABS is a must, not sure if the swap causes issues. No need to 05 swap for the grill and headlights. Not sure if I'd want auto or ZF6 again. Other option is to 7.3 swap either my 05, or find another in an XLT because I don't like my leather. Not sure about engine mounts, trans cross member, hydro-boost, A/C, exhaust mounts, driveshaft's, and the big one is the electrical. BCM controlled functions, cluster (swap 7.3?), assuming the whole harness. I think finding one of these, possibly with mechanical issues, may be less than a good 7.3 truck. If I do ZF, I have my 01 as a donor. I also have '94 and '97 long blocks in the garage. I searched, didn't find any threads to follow on 6.0 to 7.3 swap. Let me know if you know any. My 01 does have some goodies. PIS (yes I know) 230/100s, first gen KC38R, Hydra with PowerHungry custom tunes, south bend street dual disc, CNC 4 line feed, that's the main ones anyways. Let me know anything I forgot, or what insight you have. I do live in an emissions area, but they only test '08+ currently. Thanks to anyone who read this book... [/QUOTE]
