Message: [QUOTE="6.0 Tech, post: 1362983, member: 23001"] So, got her apart today, and it was not good :fustrate:. Heads came off and found 4 pistons had cracks, three of which had hit valves, and another that had hit valves. Apparently 40+ psi of boost on stock 200k mile valve springs is not all that good an idea. Dont know how much boost as i onlu have a 35 psi gauge, but it was damn near wrapped back to 0. Once the front cover was off, decent scoring was found, and my main bearings didnt look happy. :cursing: Thanks to the guys at diesels and more, a new set of mahle pistons, rings, and arp rod bolts will be here friday. Picked up a full set of bearings tonite from them. And Got a new front cover on order thru ford, and hopefully no more surprises... However, on a happier noye, No Limit intake was dropped off to get ceramic coated, along with the compressor housing of the Stage 3. My XDP sump also showed up so hopefully she'll be back together for the NHRDA on yhe 30th. [/QUOTE]
