Default 08 F350 engine conversion
I have a 2008 F350 and my engine just went out. I'm trying to decide what kind of engine I should get but I'm not sure what engines will fit. I want a Cummins but I don't know what size, any suggestions?

If your 2008 F-350 has a 6.4 diesel, then you should have 5 year/ 100,000 mile warranty

Let me ask you a couple of questions
(1) Are you draining the water out of the fuel once a month ???
(2) Are you replacing the TWO fuel filters every 15,000 miles ???
(3) Are you "O N L Y" using ULSD fuel !!!

Best bet, is to get another 6.4, cause the wiring harness & transmission will be a "P E R F E C T" fit
