@@Rich-w5r5x I have a video on how much it cost to restore, you just have to add how ever much u pay for the truck itself onto it or add additional repairs: ua-cam.com/video/MHo_KAigK3I/v-deo.htmlsi=f_fnKRq-IlV5V0gx
Just bought an 01 7.3 dually with 80k miles PUMPED to get the build going pulling the cab and bed this week then ripping the motor apart and replacing every seal
Do yourself a favor, keep it stock. I’ve got a 2002 I bought new, thru the years I’ve replaced injectors, hpop, turbo, some wiring,etc. she’s got 425,000 + miles drive her every day. These motors (7.3 L) were designed for longevity. You start turning everything up and you’re going to kill it. Just a little advice from an old Ford man, good luck 👍👍🇨🇱🇨🇱
that is 1 clean Power Stroke!!! very tastefully done, love the over all upgraded look! my 2005 needs new headlights, but not sure what direction I want to go with!
@@alsaku33 kc300x, didnt want any new turbo at all but mine blew so needed replacment, dont see the point in a T4 kit unless its a pulling truck or something
I bought a 1999 Ford F350 Dually 4x4 Black with chrome. I upgraded to newer tow mirrors it helps a lot, upgraded radio to be touchscreen. I upgraded the grill, put a backrack and a fuel cell on it. I put an intake on it so it sounds unreal now. For a tune what would you recommend? I have a programmer/tuner that’s plug and play doesn’t require chip, but I can’t get the most out of it so I’m upgrading… any suggestions? I also want to continue to build truck, it has 298,000kms but runs flawless.
@@Dr.SnowRemoval Sounds like an awesome truck! For tuning on a 7.3 powerstroke I would 100% recommend a php hydra chip, they are by far the best canned tunes on the market, nice switch on the fly buttons, display says what tune your currently in. It also has lots of support for custom tunes
I was going to buy a new F-250 with 6.7 but, decided I am going build up my current 7.3 to even more reliable power horse. Next taking trip in truck from NC-OH. Anyway ✌️ nice video
I'd recommend upgrading the motor and transmission long before swapping headlights, mirrors and other cosmetic items. Upgrading the up pipes, EBPV turbo pedestal delete with a high flow exhaust port, high pressure oil crossover line, FRX fuel rail crossover and deleting the muffler will make you feel like you have a completely different truck. I guess if you go for cosmetic swaps first, it'll look good broke down on the side of the road or on a tow truck 🤣
@@chuckparson6712 ive done all of those mods to 7.3s before, some of which are done to this truck, none of them are necessary or will make it break down lol. Up pipe leak just means less boost, not a no start engine!
@@nick7.3 EBPV control arm is a prone oil leak, that runs down the back of the engine where the up pipes are, which causes fires. Not deleting the transmission by pass tube and installing a larger transmission cooler causes the transmission to overheat and will burn it up. Obviously these are things that happen if you actually work the truck, not just drive the truck.
@@chuckparson6712 ive worked 7.3s and driven them for years so has my cousin 0 issues ever running them stock, my buddy has 400,000+ on his 7.3 thats been beat extremely hard for ever only ever has trans issues
@@nick7.3 didn't mean to ruffle your feathers, just don't agree with your recommendation for the first 5 mods people should do.

I just picked up an '03 f450 with the 7.3. as far as the front end conversion, did you just buy parts parts for The 05-07 age range and they fit or did you need to buy a kit that has it all together?
@@DRAKE_DOES_STUFF honestly bro keep it close to stock as possible engine wise, like you said you start making high hp it will just be broken down all the time. Also mods for engine cost so much, save ur money, especially in our terrible economy
@@DRAKE_DOES_STUFF yes a hydra chip will make the most difference, and exhaust. Only warning is if you tune it it increases boost obviously, but its more than stock turbo was meant to put out so more than likely your turbo will go out pretty fast on a big tune
I think im gonna build my 7.3 like your old red one mines a long bed though but same Color and everything and I just bought a 2011 bed that’s the same color but I need to do some major typical Michigan rust repair are rockers and cab corners pretty hard on those?

Dude take your tuner out of your truck, if someone steals it your screwed. I have the same tuner on my 02. Exhaust, cold air, tuner and just had her repainted! 35's on the stock wheels is a perfect 35x10.50 tire/wheel imo. No DEF no Cat, no EGR bs, 230k and she runs and looks like new, actually better than the new crap and way cheaper 😂
