Actually it wasn't Fords Fault. You can blame government emissions restrictions for killing the 7.3L.

That is True...But you cant fully blame the gov either its all the tree hugging hippies crying because their prius gets smoked out by a Blue dodge on 37's.. o sorry i dont know where i was going with that.

I thought the problems with the 6.0 were engineering issues between Ford and International.

As to the tree hugger stuff: Being a tree hugger and being a motorhead are not ncessarily mutually exclusive.

Good point Dan, Just go look at the sami body, ive "hugged" plenty of trees, heck look at Derik's XJ, hes gotten very intimate with trees.

Might be fun to convert my 7.3 to a VGT turbo, but she runs and sings like a birdie right now, so no need to mess with her!

Ficm is sold. Id do 450 on the turbo. Good backup!
