So I just bought a 6.7 crank a few minutes ago. Threw a decent low ball offer out on Ebay and got it.
Will be going in a 1998 12 valve block (industrial). Planning on running a VE pump so I need to swap the crank gear. How do I go about doing so? Just get a huge puller to get it off and put the new gear in the BBQ for a while and tap it on? Do I need to worry about welding it or will it be fine driving a VE pump at 400 to 450 HP?
My 6.0 Ford just rolled 10K hours (actually wouldn't roll, just stuck at 9999.9). Less than 5 miles after it rolled I stopped in town to grab some parts and came back out and it wouldn't start - first time this 6.0 has ever given me trouble.
Long story short, it has developed a high pressure oil leak, so that along with #4 injector that goes on vacation if I don't run way to much fuel additive and a turbo that gets stuck more often than not means that it is the end of the line for the 350K mile 6.0 Ford.
Truck is in great shape, so it will get a stroked 12 valve.
