help help me choose what to do

I have an 06 f350 6.0 and it pop the head gasket and i have been looking at all these different web site from mkm customs - to - bulletproof-diesel - to - xtermediesel and each and everyone of these sites have good stuff to fix my truck but i would like for some that has been down this road and has a 6.0 to tell what they did to fix it and how is it working if anyone on here lives in Columbus Ohio or close to Columbus i would love to meet you and talk with you about your truck. I do have a good idea where i am good to get my parts but i just need that reassurance to make sure i am doing everything the right way and here is my list of parts.......OK i need heads the old ones are cracked so i found this company out of TX called cylinder heads international they have the heads for 500 each plus shipping next i don't want to delete my egr so bulletproof is (i think) a good upgrade new EGR Cooler and I am going to buy there Oil Cooler to and they have the gasket kit with everything in it so my total overall cost on fixing this truck is close to 5000.00 please send me some input if anyone has done this to their truck

Have you put out a fight with FMC, to see if they fix it under warranty

FMC gives their diesel trucks 5 years 100,000 miles, If you use a tuner on your 6.0, then you have to stud the heads & upgrade the EGR
