just bought a 06 f350 cc lb it has a six speed and the 6.0 powerstroke. I am thinking of doing a 12v swap. I found a 93 12v that a guy has down the road from my house, it is complete with gverything including intercooler he wants $1900 for it. or a salvage yard in town wants 2400 for a 97 12v but the i have to buy everything for it. what i am looking for is about 350hp for a nice daily driver. I have a 98 quadcab shortbed with a 12v in it and love it, but I dont know anything about the 93 12v and how to get power out of it. have been on internet looking around and talking to people most everybody is telling me to get the 97 ppump motor but i do not want to have to look for the accessories to put back on the motor. is $1900 to much for the 93 it has 160000 miles on it? Is 350hp going to be dependable with this injection pump? or is that it's limits for power. I am not in that big of a hurry for this it is just a project, but i am pretty sure i do not want the powerstroke back in it.

 

i have a buddy that has a pump and injector shop. he can get some nice power out of the first gen.

 

i like cummins alot better than powerstrokes but seriously why wouldnt you keep the 6.0 in it? you can build those engines to be badass.

 

Is that the engine and trans or just the engine? A 12 V is worth it.....only need 2 wires, 1 for the starter/starter solenoid and one for the FSS....done deal.... no computers....or other bullshit.

 

putting my first gen 12 valve was pretty simple like was said before two wires and she runs. you have an awesome setup with the 6 speed already one thing i wish my conversion had was a manual

 

First things first. What's wrong with the 6.0L?

Besides it being a 6.0L
