You guys did a nice job on that! We just got back from a 2200 round trip in the 04 Excursion! I love it! But time to put it away for the Ohio winter! Unless I can find a comparable conversion Van, 4X4 6.0 , I'm keeping the Excursion for ever!
I live in Acworth an hour from you, I have an 06 Harley edition 240k studded and deleted but coming to see you soon for some love on it. Thanks for the videos
Bill you have to use the “back in black” tinted oil coating from NH oil under coaters. If I may offer some constructive criticism that undercoat job is weak. That frame should look wet. The first treatment on a heavily rusted truck needs to be heavy and extremely thorough because salt is! Great job on these trucks. You are making dreams come true.
Bill , you know would make an interesting video is The History of your Shop & How you got to the process of having the Mechanics that you do. And then a side video on The History of How Mike (mikey) came to be at Power Stroke. That'd prob be your #1 video.
Fluid Film will stop any rust on the underside and protect it from getting worse. Ive used it on my truck since I got it and even with Western Pa winters the underside looks brand new.
I used to watch bills videos about 7 yrs ago or so while I was looking around for a truck to use for work. Lol back then he scared me to death about the 6.0s which led me to buy a low mileage (at the time) 7.3. Now that truck has 460k mi and is plumb wore out and beat up. The drive train is still holding up pretty fair but the rest of the truck is falling apart and looks like crap inside and out. Starting to kick the tires on replacing the old girl. He gives me a lot more confidence in a 6 liter these days now that all it's short comings have been learned to be bullet proofed. If I end up getting one I might just have to take it to him so he can do his thing to it. Cheers from Jackson Mississippi
I am looking forward to the day I bring my 07 F350 to you! I only have 85,000 miles on mine, nice to know there is someone I can trust with my truck. Its worth the ride from AZ!
I just had my 2007 f250 dealer proofed, lower end reseal, new injectors, glow plugs,etc. I think my trucks runs better than new with 190000 miles on it. Scott, Bill and his wife, and the Techs at the shop were very courteous and explained everything I asked about the process. They even painted the pulleys, heads, and oil pan, which is unheard of at any other repair shop! I am completely satisfied with the truck and am glad I traveled 400 miles to bring it to them. Thanks so much Powerstroke specilities!!! They will treat you right!!!!!
Loved my 2009 but rusted be on repair cab corners rockers and the box. Sold it they use it as a plow truck now, I bought a 2018 ram 2500 Laramie Cummins love it. Enjoy the video
Phosphatize the Iron Oxide back into Steel which not only stops the rust but returns the black color, Then use the oil to protect every year. If he does it next season itll be a true transformation. I grew up in Oaklawn Ill moved to Glenwood, Colorado then Wyoming have zero rust on my two 1997, and 2005. None have ever been to the mechanic except Bill at Powerstroke Specialties and my own maintenance maintenance maintenance smiles for miles! My pocketbook full full full!
The DIf cover you mentioned you’re exactly right the high-quantity ones do not work as well. It’s a fluid dynamic thing not a volume thing. Banks I believe actually has a video on it you chose wisely.
That is the probable path of my truck, some rust,,,, but not that bad!!! Few engine issues and low power. I’ll be bringing it as soon as I sell off my welding shop!🤞🏼
Great video. I’m just wondering WHY the F buy an F250 with a diesel engine that only runs 220,000 miles before rebuilding? My 5.4 has almost 300,000 miles on it and still running strong.
I have a 7.3 IDI that I swore was the best towing and hauling with the best mpg until I bought a bulletproofed 6.0 and I'm seeing 20mpg highway towing with a Moritz flatbed and dump trailer. P.S. selling my 1988 7.3 dually longbed ZF5speed 4.10 rear end 💪
Congrats Tyler! Nice truck! I just went through and did a ton of work on my 6.0. Live in central NJ also. We should get together and compare trucks! Drive safely back to NJ! Wish you well.
not long ago i saw a 2007 super cab long bed , for a good price , started like a new 6.0, but the rails like he mentioned and the frame was flaking from rust, looked nice from the outside , but not under ir
I love this video and man I’m with you about freedom. I became citizen and served in the army for the love of the country and the Freedoms it stands for
If you had the cab and bed off on it, why not scale down the frame and coat with POR15? Truck looks good but when you look under it now its ehhh. If you had done that and forgone the NH OIL coat the truck would have been way better off
Dunno...I like Cummins but I agree that the 6.0 is an under appreciated motor...the early years got a bad rap but most of the 6.0s are pretty good engines...delete the EGR, switch the head bolts to studs, good filters and they’ll run forever
That thing is badass!!! If I ever bought a ford diesel this is where I would take it no questions! Been watching your videos for a long time!! How is “spot the shop truck”? Update video?
I own a 2006 VW jetta diesel with 400k miles. Started having injector stiction on original injectors starting at about 300k. I used a gallon of Lucas Injector cleaner over two year period and it did nothing..The Archoil worked in six months. Bill's advice saved me from buying new injectors.. I have started to use it in my F-150 and 2stroke outboard. Help a Veteran too.
I have a 2005 6.0 that I love to death. I’ve invested a fair amount in mine as well. My issue is our governor is pushing to outlaw any diesel vehicle older than 2008. I pray that doesn’t happen.
Get a mailboxes etc. box in the closest state re title in that state and have the mailboxes etc. foreword your mail monthly! My friend has done that for years, the vehicles are titled in KY because the taxes were less. Saves him 400 a year for 20$ a month but he has 8 trucks! Keeps the book keeper pulling her Hair out though!
There are no states implementing this on a passenger truck level. I live in California and if it’s not happening here then it’s not happening anywhere. They are, however, pushing for a clean diesel retrofit to 2010 or newer engines in all vehicles over 14,000 pounds. We’ll see how well that goes.
Dang I'm all for restoring but when you replace every part on it you might as well get a different truck in better condition and swap stuff over to it. Good work though! Lots of money.
Bill ,once I get the extended dealer proof done and I regularly use the arch oil additive will I have to worry about cleaning out the turbo on the exhaust side every 50000 miles
Good afternoon, Thank You for sharing all these information. Kindly would You please instruct me on the right direction to fix a power stroke problem? The engine runs fine for about an hour, then I turn off the key. the problem starts here It will not run again. It cranks but will not run. Where do I start to look for answers? Thank You
Tell him to go to Krown Rust Control or Rustcheck , or get a woolwax-fluid film kit and spray it. You need to drill the doors & rockers and get in the cavities, i've lived in the rust-salt belt my entire life, that's how you need to make them last. Krown is the best, RustCheck is a close 2nd, and Fluid film makes a good product....but it's sorta fly by night as to who sprays it. If he's going to live in New Jersey go to Krown (google SOuth Main Auto Krown part 1 , Krown part 2 , South main auto krown aftermath )
Remember the old saying 'You get what you pay for'? Go ahead and take it to a cheap jack leg shop and you will be spending the money twice having to go back and have Bill fixing it anyway.
I don't even own a Powerstroke or have the desire to, but I have been watching Bill's videos for years. Excellent video as always!
Same! Only I want a 6.0 now lol
@@jacobjones9461 looking at them right now 🤣
The restored trucks Bill creates are the best deal on the market. Better mileage, better reliability, and better price. Thanks Bill!
Bill love how much pride you take in making these trucks great.
Smart kid, he came to the right place. Thanks Bill your the man.
He is such a smart kid outside of bring us his truck. Raised right has manners and respects others
i love the 6 liter sound , makes my old 7.3 sound like a locomotive
Ya that's fair, but I love my ol Locomotive 🚂
My old 7.3 IDI straight piped sounds like a Sopwith Camel on takeoff compared to the glorious jet engine sound of my 6.0
There's NOTHING better than the 'bag-o-wrenches in the dryer" sound than the Legendary 7.3!
You spent your hard earned money with the right people. Power stroke specialty are the best!!!
Thank you for your positive comment
Does anybody just LOVE the neon sign Tyler sent me for my office???? OMG
For sure!! That is a really great sign!
I almost bought one of those and now I will! It looks awesome!
"So, you're from New Jersey?"
"Yep"
"What exit?"
LOL!!!🤣

Love the sound of my 6.0, I run 4 inch turbo back.
Thank you so much for everything! It was an amazing experience to work with you guys! Awesome video.
I live in Acworth an hour from you, I have an 06 Harley edition 240k studded and deleted but coming to see you soon for some love on it. Thanks for the videos
Love my 6.0
When its time, its coming your way. Never gonna spend 80k+ on the newer trucks. Love what you do Bill. 👊
Absolutely love this 6.0
LOVE that turbo whistle!
Hear the whistle see the smoke..you just got passed by a BIGG DOGG POWERSTROKE
@@tyhewitt4858 Haha, that's pretty damn good! I like that.
Same reason why i am slowly but surely restoring my 99.5 7.3
Let us know if we can help you...just call the shop
04 f250 best truck fx4. All i need is a hungry turner ..
The 6.0s are great love that whistle
I have a 6.7 f450. But I love how a straight pipe 6.0 sounds...
You hit it out of the park on this one Bill, great video and loved the ride along!
That's the way all trucks should run.
It makes more sense economically to get an older diesel and restore it unless you have 80k + to buy a brand new one.
Bill you have to use the “back in black” tinted oil coating from NH oil under coaters. If I may offer some constructive criticism that undercoat job is weak. That frame should look wet.

Good to see spot still getting things done haven’t seen it in a while

You do good honest work, love the channel.
Just lined up shipping to get my truck down to Bill. Funny he lives literally the next town over from me. Can't wait!
I want one of those signs!!! BadAss! Great video btw. Love how you got his whole backstory about his truck.
I’ve had so many trucks. 5 12 valves, 24 valve, Detroit’s and 6.0s.
6.0s sound the best
I have a 03 6 speed. The turbo whistle drives me crazy
Man I wish mine was a 6 speed! But yeah, the 03 ten blade turbo is extremely loud with a straight pipe. Lol!

I’ve been wanting to bring my truck to bill for a while! Atleast I’d know the work he puts on it is honest!
Phosphatize the Iron Oxide back into Steel which not only stops the rust but returns the black color,
Then use the oil to protect every year.
If he does it next season itll be a true transformation.

It's interesting that since you've stopped working on 6.4's the carnage videos seemed to have stopped, I really enjoyed those!
I love this channel! Nice gift too! Well deserved

Red Lion Heavy Truck does the same work and they are in N.J Full Restos including interiors & paint.
Great job !

Beautiful truck!
Oh Bill... I liked you before... But after "Commifornia" I just started to love you hahahaha
another great end result good job bill.
Man I love this channel
not long ago i saw a 2007 super cab long bed , for a good price , started like a new 6.0, but the rails like he mentioned and the frame was flaking from rust, looked nice from the outside , but not under ir
Rest in peace Bill. I can’t believe you are gone
"bottom end is indestructable"
Lists several types of bottom end failures.
...only due to OTHER mitigating factors! Are you actually paying attention???
@@seanoleary1979 He's definitely a gm guy just ignore him lol.
Bill I wish you open a shop in NJ
Bulletproof your powerstoke guys by getting a Cummins swap.
I love this video and man I’m with you about freedom. I became citizen and served in the army for the love of the country and the Freedoms it stands for
If you had the cab and bed off on it, why not scale down the frame and coat with POR15? Truck looks good but when you look under it now its ehhh. If you had done that and forgone the NH OIL coat the truck would have been way better off
I want a 6.0 Econoline. Cool video.
Your mechanic will hate you!
Dunno...I like Cummins but I agree that the 6.0 is an under appreciated motor...the early years got a bad rap but most of the 6.0s are pretty good engines...delete the EGR, switch the head bolts to studs, good filters and they’ll run forever
Awesome truck the Only thing that disappoints me is you didn’t touch up or he gets in and out of the truck on the rocker panel
That thing is badass!!! If I ever bought a ford diesel this is where I would take it no questions! Been watching your videos for a long time!! How is “spot the shop truck”? Update video?

Ayyyy im from middletown hope to see the truck driving around
Could you bullet-proof a 2009 Ford E-350 Super Duty Commercial 6.0L V8 Diesel Cargo Van ?
Thanks for the road test 🍻
I’ve got a 2006 with 319000 miles and I’m torn on what to do ,I LOVE my truck but I’m near retirement and we want to pull our camper across country
Simply changing mine to a 12 valve done dumping money into a 6.0
all you gotta do is watch his videos it will tell you legity everything ik guys with 6.0s with 400 to 500
I'm itching to buy a 6.0 and have Bill take care of my truck...
Is that 4" or 5" exhaust? Lol just saw 4" straight pipe, awesome!
4 inch with a 5 inch tip

Good video, I saw spot! lol
Zane come on and see us I will let you drive SPOT!! I have a key!! Lol 😆 🤣 😂
Bill, you are my hero
Dang I'm all for restoring but when you replace every part on it you might as well get a different truck in better condition and swap stuff over to it. Good work though! Lots of money.

Do not trade a 6.0, no DPF.

What was the turn around time on this project?
Put 20k in it and didn’t get the door Jams painted and the frames rusting out.
👍
What EGTs are you seeing when gettin’ it unloaded with these mods? I need to get a pyrometer but until I can afford just taking it ez
What happens when u drop 20k into a truck for restoration and then u total it the next week? I don't see insurance paying u back
You do good work but double the price of most shops. Reasonable pricing should be part of your decision.
Remember the old saying 'You get what you pay for'? Go ahead and take it to a cheap jack leg shop and you will be spending the money twice having to go back and have Bill fixing it anyway.
can you make a recent video of egt, eot, and ect in details please!!!
who is the person i speak to about my '94 Ford? I want to rebuild Lucy......
Hey Bill, what are your thoughts on Archoil's new AR6500 in a 6.0 vs the AR6200?
I got a f350 7.3 1999 and the mecanics around here can't fix my transmission!!!!! Is realy that complicate?
Maybe one day I will buy a truck from Bill
nothing like happy customers
I spotted Spot 15:23
Come see us!! I have a key to spot you can drive it
What temps do you like to see the egt’s at when shutting down.
Will the payload and towing numbers increase after your restoration ? Bill
Call the shop and Bill will talk to you and answer your questions
Thanks for watching
