[QUOTE="TARM, post: 440661, member: 578"] Not sure on the cost you will have to call some of the sponsors. It should be done before nay machine work is done for sure. Give it plenty of time to cure. Maybe give Nate @ Unlimited or Dave @ swamps a call and talk about it. The 7.3 has oil squirter that shoot oil onto the underside of the piston. Sometimes the loctite lets loose and you end up finding a cooling jet in your oil pan when you do a OC. The issue is one the piston is not getting the oil as it should to cool it and the oil is now flowing out of a larger hole than its suppose to so you can end up with low oil pressure. By putting a weld on it they will stay put for sure. Same thing goes for the cam gear. keeping it from walking and then you start eating up CPS and have issues. I think you will be SUPER happy with the setup as far as the power goals go you are looking at. We tend to always push our parts to the max. Turbo pushed to way high drvie pressure and heavy fuel to squeeze all the power we can. Its nice when you build something and choose the parts to stay in the sweet perf zone for those specs not the ragged edge. Things last longer run better IMO. [/QUOTE]
