Hi to all the vendors and everybody who can help me, it is time for me to rebuild my truck right.
I'm in need of some prices for following parts.
1. Elite headstuds
2. oilcooler/antifreeze delete kit
3. injectors like 175-190 100% over, they need to be reliable.
4. Turbo, Powermax or something real reliable
5. SCT live wire, I like the gauges and keep track of vitals.
6. Custom tunes for the SCT
7. Regulated return
I like to get everything together and have a shipping address in the U.S.
Please let me know if I forgot something and I'm open for sugestions.

1)Headstuds- go with ARPs on ebay
2)You don't delete the oil cooler or the "antifreeze". Go to Bulletproof Diesel for an oil cooler and get some Fleetrite ELC from your local International dealer
3)I've heard good things about Casserly's. Use the search function and you'll get all the reveiws you can handle. 155-175's with a Powermax
4)Powermax maybe with a Batmowheel
5)Get the Livewire from Quick Tricks Auto (Vivian, her tunes are great) or Innovative (Eric's tunes are good too) I've also heard great things about Matt's tunes at Gearhead.
6)^^^look above^^^
7)I think Craig at MPD has them. Use the search feature again and find one you like, but they are all pretty similar.

1) Go with ARP's (Browns Diesel 400 shipped)the A1 H-11 headstuds are a waste of money
2) just get the OEM oil cooler rebuild kit and before you do the work flush the system with restore and restore + also get an EGR delete if you dont already have one ($250 + $200 for EGR delete) ELC coolant is about $20 a gallon
3) Warren Diesel injectors ($1500)
4) want to stay VGT? Powermax with a batmowheel if youre going with 175's (Performance Truck Products $1150)
5) Livewire is a dinosaur get an SCT X3 and and Edge Insight CTS ($350 + custom tunes + $400 for Insight)
7) Regulated return from Strictly Diesel ($670) or Elites stage 1 is $575 but it uses rubber lines

This is what I would do

The BPD remore mounted oil cooler is the only remote mount worth a damn.

I would run a Driven Diesel(Striictly Diesel) regulated return
