Great video! What does something like this cost with all the parts you replaced?
9k with all parts and labor biggest expense being $2200 for the KDD heads
I dropped my truck off here while they were in the middle of this job. Meeting these guys here and watching them work i knew these guys are the business. They did a dcr conversion on my 2019 super duty and did a phenomenal job. If you anywhere close to this shop and have a diesel truck, and you want top notch work and not getting racked over the coals like the dealership and other shops, this is the place to take your truck. Andrew and his guys knows what they doing.
KDD built an engine for me a few years ago.
Glad to have had the opportunity to get it from him.
Good people, and they do a thorough build leaving nothing to chance..
Yes first 6.0 video I’ve seen with the correct pushrods very good!!! Lots of people miss that!!
One of the only guys I’ve seen actually un-torgue head bolts.
Making it possible for me to escape thousands in labor, thank you sir!
Great video, thanks for taking the time too to post it.
As a 6.0 owner and shade tree mechanic I have to say this video was AMAZING! Such a wealth of information and entertaining the whole time. Awesome content on your channel and I will be ordering some merch from you so hopefully you ship to Canada 🇨🇦 😁
Thanks for the compliment. I’ve got 2 more behind this one to do after I knock out some simple jobs plus when we start on the 6.0 shorty street truck build I think we’re gonna do it cab on and pull the motor so that I can go though how it goes for those who don’t have a lift.
Great video, fantastic narration.
Speaking of that: has anyone ever told you that you sound like Hank Hill/Tom Anderson? Respect..😁
👍 that STC snap to connect fitting at high pressure pump is something I forgot to change bet it will be lovely to change with cab on
It’s not terrible just convenient to do while the cab is up.
You're a miracle worker!
Awesome video as usual. You are meticulous and we appreciate that.
We have had a 6.0 power stroke since 03 and have had some issues but it is a beautiful truck 84,000 original miles
Good job, Mr. Auto Medic
Great video! Thanks
Very impresssive. I appreciate your attention to detail.
Thanks bud
Great Video
My '06 6.0 just blew at 270k on stock head gaskets. I knew my luck would run out sooner or later
Can’t complain about that though, 270 ain’t bad especially if she’s been putting in the work
Love the video - slow, meticulous, exacting and professional.
I have a 6.0 EX that I will need some work on and would like so if y’all would do it
Give us a call and we can set it up
9:33 I had that same degradation on the top o-ring of one of my injectors for my 7.3, when I was doing the cup replacement fun.
Great video!! I thought I hit subscribe already. But I did on this video!!!
Grate. Job
I just found this channel and love it!!! You are awesome and I thank you very much for how detailed you are and even letting us know the torque spec’s ( that info is gold). What exhaust is on this truck??
@@lownotslow1 stock with muffler delete and pre axle dump. Thanks for watching. Spread the word about the channel, it helps a lot.
Love the videos you put together with the 6.0's. Have you seen any failures with the new Chinese made motorcraft coolers?
You can use a 3/4 socket to push down those injector clips. Ik the tools are designed for that but it ain’t exactly necessary, especially for someone who doesn’t do it everyday.
Oh yea for sure that works that tool just makes it easy and faster to me. Was worth the $12 for sure.
Do you think you'll ever do a video on a step-by-step procedure on how to do head studs with cab on. For us at home mechanics that don't have the shops.
Great question, I’ve thought hard about it and I may with the 6.0 street truck build when we get started. As much as I don’t want to I may.
Can you do a video of the differences Ford did between the early models and later years and if they all benefit from the same upgrades/fixes?
Yea, good request.
What is the book time on that kind of job with cab off?
14:27 why not the pushrods? I can guess because possible wear and damage.
23:02 do you check the cylinder head deck for flatness? I’ve heard (not read forums) that lack of flatness is a problem with many a 6.0.
Those were brand new KDD heads no need to check and if you were meaning to refer to the block deck surface no I did not, if the block was getting pulled yes I would have because it would have been going to the machine shop anyway. So be never had a block be out but heads in the other hand are the typical issue which is why I will not do a 6.0 head gasket job with factory heads anymore.
@@AutomedicGarage I was referring to the block surface. Thanks for clarifying. From watching how you go about the work, I can tell you are taking appropriate measures. I would not use stock heads either. Keep up the good work!
What does something like this cost to get done?
So with the minimal coolant pressure rise would that not be the egr being cracked ?. Head gasket usueally keep rising. Also if you drain coolant 1st then you dont have to deal with the mess.
@@hankclingingsmith8707 you would smell coolant burn with the egr, see coolant burn through the exhaust, and it wouldn’t blow the degass cap off. I drained coolant, just didn’t pull block plugs

Did you guys do this job in 2 days ??
I got a leak around my oil pan on my 07 6.0. Just ordered a gasket set but I read on a forum you can drop the pan 1/2” and apply some sealant for temporary fix. Should I do that or just wait on the gasket set?
Wait and do it right
@@AutomedicGarage figured it wouldn’t kill nothing to wait but wanted another opinion. Thank you sir
what are your thoughts on doing a head gasket job with out removing the cab ? i had me t6.0 studed and blew gaskets again and my guy dont rmove the cab just seams like a lot of work
Cant get the studs in without jacking up the motor. Can have the cab off in 1.5 hrs so why not. Makes the work so much easier and cleaner.
If you have a lift to use, it seems foolish not to.
What head gaskets are you running on this one?
Oem
Mr Automedic, I've got a 2000 F350, 7.3 automation transmission that i bought new. It came from the factory with 215/85/16 tires which I have upgraded to 235/85/16. My speedometer is now approximately 3 mph off when I check it against a GPS. Do you have a computer or programmer to change the tire size in the trucks computer to 235/85/16? I know this may sound trivial to some but I'm meticulous about my vehicles being right and this speedometer being off drives me crazy!
I can adjust by .5” increments.
Thanks for replying. I'm in the Chattanooga area and need to come over your way sometime in the next few weeks. I'll get in touch with you and coordinate a day and time when I'm heading your way.
Any idea what you’re expecting for horsepower out of this truck?
Not a lot. He’s running a Diablo sport tuner(not the best) with everything else being stock other than blue spring, exhaust the and the oringed heads. Maint thing here is that he doesn’t have to worry about headgasket problems anymore.
was that reck it Ralph back in the video 😂
That’s a good nick name for gary
@AutomedicGarage 🤣🤣 T shirt idea: Gary what are you doing, Ford stuff lol
@@Boron64 I like it
Where are y’all located?
Arlington tn
Where are you guys located

How much do you all think I should put money aside each paycheck to rebuild my 2007 6.0 ?
That’s a pretty open question
All of it lol 😆
😭 dam im sorry guys i just really wanna rebuild my 6.0 but my stupid job lowered my pay from $22 to 18.11 an hr 😭 so im trying to put little money to the side
@justindaniel5087 what all needs fixing?
@@justindaniel5087 this job was 9k parts and labor. I charge $2500 labor for stud job but we also did oil cooler, stc, fan clutch, coolant filtration etc.
Put some respect on this mans name i would pay 10 grand for a brand new truck i ddnt really c or maybe i wasnt paying attention wats evrthyrhing he got done to the hoop
Im not following your comment or the lack thereof of correct spelling. What he got was stage 1 KDD heads, arp studs, complete oem top end gasket set, oem oil cooler, blue spring mod, new injector orings, stand pipes, dummy plugs, cooling fan clutch, S&B cab mounts, updated STC fitting. Bill was like $9500. Including the 3k labor.
I meant it sarcasticly as if to say i would say that truck has another 200 thousand easy. Next to one of these newer trucks with all the emissions its not a new truck i can take the comment down i apologize
Ur a great at wat u do im new and got a 04 6.0 as a gift 🎁 i wanna take care of it i live in parkersburg west virginia with a small roofing business is there a page where u can ask questions
@@BlakeRobison-jh3ft on our patreon there is. You can also email.
