Mine is going into the shop on the 18th for headstuds, egr delete and the tech is going to look at the oil cooler while its apart. The heads will also be machine to.

 

I have MDubs truck at my dealership, WHEN i get to do it, i want to put the updated STC bracket on the back of the pump, throw updated stand pipes and dummy plugs in it, arp head studs, mill the heads, and oil cooler.

 

Yeah, I want you to do all that stuff too!

Does the updated STC bracket on the back of the pump, updated stand pipes and dummy plugs help a lot and where could I get them.

 

YES THEY DO! When you can get 50-90k out of stock stc fitting and stand pipes, ive done the new bracket which is solid and updated dummy plugs and stand pipes and have yet to see the truck back. The older ones are like an air line fitting to an air compressor IN CONCEPT. they will wiggle lose from vibration heat and extremely high pressures. Lets see how well you hold up to 3000+psi high temperatures and vibration. . Same with stand pipes and dummy plugs only the o rings wear out. Before ford updated them the only way you could get them was for a 4.5 LCF same frigging things and have been doing that way before ford released them as an "update part number". Here are the part numbers for all of them.
4C3Z-9B246-F STC fitting
6E7Z-9A332-B Updated Stand Pipes and dummy plugs
heres something else i highly recommend
W302472 6.4 banjo bolts
W303659 Washers for banjo bolts
3C3Z-9T517-AG Fuel pressure regulator upgrade kit.

 

Thanks for the info Powerstroke Tech.

 

Bill, thanks for all the P/N's!

We should come up with a thread we can sticky with common P/N's like this, and maybe even some cross reference into International P/N's too... hrmmmm

 

I finished mine with all of these parts in the middle of july. wow, hell of a difference, especially since some of m orings were blown in half on the dummy plugs./

 

That is an EXCELLENT idea! Just went through all the forums and took me about 20 minutes to get caught up on the last 2 months of DB life. Lol.

 

I agree. Some how Sticky a thread for tools and sticky a thread for part numbers and cross reference international parts.

Ive got a spread sheet about a mile long just for the 6.0 I have everything simple from a PCV o ring all the way to a complete engine part number. I have ARPs official PN for studs, not that it matters because you can buy them from ANY distributor. LOL im trying to get my dealership to stock Swamps FICMs Sinister egr delete kits and ARP studs...

And i also have a spread sheet thats about 10 miles long for the 6.4 if anyone is unfortunate enough to have one of those with no warranty remaining

HA that should be the 6.4 signature- just replace bomb with 6.4
