Hi every one. I'm new to the world of 6.0s. Just brought home my 06 after being told by many I was nuts to consider buying one. I have been surfing this forum as a guest for about 2 months.The knowledge I gained from all of you has helped me make an informed decision.She checked out great for compression,eot/ect delta, stiction ,ficm voltage. no de-gas residue and no warranty issues per oasis. So some one please tell me it makes good sense to spend a pile of money on the upgrades I've listed in my sig section. I could use some affirmation to convince the wife I haven't lost my mind

 

Coolant filter would be the first one I would (and did) do - easy to do and not that expensive.

I put in a Sinister - it came all assembled and I just had to install the mounting bracket and cut in the hoses.

 

Sounds like you've done your homework. I see no issues with your plans.

Obviously when you dive in for ARP's, there's a laundry list of stuff you should put in while you're in there.
