Message: [QUOTE="DZL JIM, post: 1084717, member: 153"] Our '04 shop van is pushing coolant pretty good now. Almost 2 years ago we did the heads (pressure tested and machined flat at 110,000 miles) and Ford gaskets, and installed 4202 ARP head studs. Just like we've done on lots of trucks. This past spring we added 190/100% injectors, Barder Stage-3 turbo, tuning, etc, and not even a couple thousand miles it's puking good. Dynoed at 560 hp, so it's nothing compared to a lot of you guys. What's the recommend fix now? What have you guys found to be the real issue? I'm sure I'm not the first one to see this. Stronger head studs? O-ringing heads? If it has to come apart again, I'm thinking o-ringing heads is most cost effective cure-all solution. Input appreciated. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
