Default 6.0 questions

i am looking to to buy a 2007 ford f350 6.0, i own a 2001 7.3l i know alot about a 7.3 but not much about a 6.0s. the truck im looking at has 110,000 miles but i know theres problems wit the 6.0s fuel injectors. 6 of the 8 injectors have been replaced but i dont know if i should drop the money into it then have it blow up on me. any advice on 6.0s? thanks

drink up

they shouldn't. i'm guessing the same concept as 7.3's if it gets below 45psi they start goin. so maybe some gauges and an airdog and you'd be ok
