Can 600hp be a long term reliable truck?

[whitetailreflex]

Just like the title states. I've got a studded 6.0. Just about to replace oil cooler, egr delete. standpipes and stc fittings replaced 15k ago. Ficm rebuilt.

My question is.
With a studded deleted updated truck, at 100k now last long term minus typical stuff.(oil coolers and what not).

Post deployment build plans.

64.5fmw
190/75
Reg return with fuel bowl delete and an aero motive setup.
Billet trans
Ported intake
T4 divided up pipes
Upgraded valve train
Ficm tune

Anything missed will be appreciated. But what I'm wondering is, could a build, once all the quirks are worked out last say 40-50k without catostrophic failure.

Thanks zack.

Also I don't intend on towing, just a few drug free passes on track and dyno. With a moderate street reputation. Also a fresh hpop maybe?

Should last a long time! There's a lot of truck running that type of setup with no issues. The head gaskets may give after time though

So what would be some things I could do to prevent that? H-11 over arp?

Nothing really, just depends on how much/often you keep you foot from putting the skinny to the floor.

Well I'm sure after awhile it'll get old, but then again my tuned 6.4 had a skinny pedal that liked it rough...

Drive it like it's a rental....you may have issues.

Drive it like its your pride and joy, with the odd hammer down...it should last a lot longer.

I hope so my 6.0 has around that power level... id like her to last a while lol

I typically baby my trucks. But I also feel that why have the power if you never use it?

How many miles, passes and pulls so far?

 

[GatorBaitR6]

No passes or pulls on this setup.. due to deployment and asshole bosses who won't give me time to go race... The stock setup had about 8 pulls on the sled track... I know have a full bts trans along with the 600-650 hp so it should be good for a while...

I forgot to add them. I'll do them along with pushrods and valve springs

MTW stage 3, full force 190/100s and a full built bts trans... I didn't take the cheap route lol...

Yes yes yes. This is the only thing that worries me.

I just installed 190/75s and an s366 on mine with 220k miles. Thing seems to love it.

How do you like the non vgt over vgt?

Amazing. Sounds wayyy better. Spool is pretty good. It's also a smaller turbo as far as outside dimensions and it fits easier.
