Well what do you guys think, which sucks less the 7.3 or the 6.0. I'm leaning towards the 6.0 sucking less...

I'm leaning towards you knowing nothing. Neither suck. And if you think so, come to TS. I know of a little white 6.0 and 7.3 with ghost flames that will put a hurtin on you!

Personally, I think the 6.0 is a disaster waiting to happen. In the world of Power Strokes, the 7.3 is a lot more reliable overall, from everything I've heard & seen.

What's a TS? And what are these trucks you speak of? Names?
You still didn't answer the question... which sucks less?

"Sucks" is not the word I would use to describe either. But I have a few buddys that are gonna be racing. A pretty good friend of mine named Danny Elmore in his 6.0, and Zane Koch in his 7.3. I also know a guy named Brian running quick diesel with an 11 sec. full body 4x4 7.3, still running stock internals.
Pick your poison...
7.3 or 6.0, it's all personal preferance. I'm a 7.3 man myself.

Well you've got to admit though that the 6.0 was a very large problem child in the Ford diesel engine family. From the injectors, to the head studs, and head gaskets.
I'm just messin, I'm actually a Ford guy myself. The forum is dead so I figured if I posted something controversial it would pull people out of the wood work, which it did, so I win... haha.
I was actually at the dragstrip in Salt Lake a couple years ago when Zane tied the record for worlds quickest 7.3. The was a sight.
Now the 11second 7.3 with stock internals is something I'm going to ask you to prove. I've only ever seen built Cummins and D-Maxes reach that low "stock", and even then was high 11's.

Why do you keep calling BS on me? I'm not some lowly punk. You'll figure it out soon enough. Let me try to find some of Brian's runs. Or you can call Swamps Diesel and ask them...

The engine has never been pulled... lets just say that.

Because you keep making claims with nothing to back them up... there for you have the burden of proof. Post proof, like that video, when you make claims and people won't doubt you.

BTW- If you're so "in" to diesels. How come you don't know what TS is?
What do you consider "stock" internals??

Son, the 7.3 is in a class of its own when it comes to reliability. The 6 liter will need some upgrades such as new TTY headbolts and EGR cooler. Other than that it is a fine engine.
slow but reliable.
