What? There is no way that spring will cause a miss

Dude me and a half dozen other people have told you a dozen times or so now.. diesels take forever to warm up! They have a cooling system adequate enough to cool down itself AND a friggen tractor trailer. It's normal. Deal with it. This isn't a cadillac or honda civic designed for comfort, it'd designed for work.

Believe me the folks on this site will NOT lead you wrong. I cant speak for the 6.9's as the only thing I know about them is that they last forever.. but these 12v/7.3's and above have monster cooling systems.

YES the bhaf is worth it. Mileage will go way up, sound will go way up, and all you have to do to clean it is beat it against the curb or use an air comp
