Something I have been thinking of if I ever have to rebuild my 6 l is to get someone in with a steamer unit and pump steam through the entire waterjacket until it is about 200 Fahrenheit after the first torque and then do the final torque while it is fully hot.
WHS ^^^^ The fact that you claim to have continous injector problems on the 6.0 speaks more to an incompetent mechanic. In this case YOU. in ovwr 225k I don't have stiction and neither do many othet owners. Injectors failed after YOU had them apart? YOU effed up. Replaced o rings on one side...
You think the piezo injectors on the 6.7 are reliable? Do a search on fuel contamination. Idlf you're lucky you can save the valve covers and oilpan. Last.time I checked that's way worse and WAY more expensive than a 6.0 With the 6.0 if you run reasonably clean fuel and have good fuel pressure...
Split shot is SO much so than piezo. Split shot only functions at idle, it can't react fast enough for above idle. Piezo functions at all throttle settings as far as I know. They tried split shot on the 03 6.0 the injectors simply didn't stand up
Unfortunately piezo technology can't realistically be retrofitted to the 6.0 so all this piezo talk in this thread is a complete and utter waste of time
