Just Say'in Hello..New Kid On The Block

[Stillundecided]

Hello everyone..I do not have a lot of forum exp. My first and only forum post's have been on the "Ford Enthusiast" Forum. Yes..that means I have chosen the Loved and Hated Ford 6.0 as my method of torture. And So.... I am driving a 2005 F-350 Super CC LB Drw 2WD Red. Not many mods yet. Here is the short list.

• By-pass oil system self design using 3 micron glass media filter.
• Modified exhaust manifold...enlarged ports to 1 5/8" with custom laser cut metalizied gaskets, to support Anti-reversion.
• Volante Ram intake and filter sys.
• Hypertech level one tune.
• All fluid filtration thru Racor.
• All Lubrication including rearend is Amsoil.
  
  The cab is going airborne on monday 11/20/2011 for a cab off ..Arps/Black Onyx/Full EGR Delete/Updated Oil Cooler .
  
  This event is driven by the now famous "Barrior Breach" between the coolant and oil that has been known to occur, and has in my Oil cooler. The rest is a "while I'm at it" thing.
  OK..enough rambling for now. I look forward to sharing and learning what it takes to make these dream machines of ours the Modern Marvels they can be.
