6.0 Engine rebuild - After Market suggestions

[Kolohe]

So the 6.0 engine is being torn down. Installing:
EGR Delete with up pipe
ARP Head Studs
Oil Cooler
SCT Tuner

While the engine is torn apart is it worth it to upgrade injectors,...etc Just want to know if I should bullet proof it more so to say.
This truck is usually my daily driver, towing a few times a month, not really looking to build a motor to race....

I am thinking installing a Turbo back exhaust. Any thoughts on the AFE Atlas 4" ?

Whats the budget?

 

[Kolohe]

To stay within my budget without the wife kicking me out of the house lol I have about $800 left.
I did find the AFE turbo back exhaust for $309...then it would be around $500 left. Would it be wise to go a different route?

I would go ahead and try to squeeze in a regulated return while your in that far. STC fitting and blue spring mod also.

How many miles are on the truck?

 

[Kolohe]

McDaniel1991. I have about 136k miles on the truck until my second egr cooler failed and screwed up a few other things.

I never thought of the STC fitting, it seems like a must have after reading about it...
I did go with the Exhaust after getting a deal on it.
As far as the Regulated return line I may be going over the budget...hopefully I can do without it for a while.
Will think about the blue spring mod though.

After almost a month or so down and tons of research and reading on this forum about the correct way to repair the 6.0 I can finally say that the engine is back together. Hopefully it starts lol
Time to turn the key over...

I wonder how you guys felt after the repair job...because I'm crapping my pants hoping everything's put on correctly.
