[QUOTE="slowcoupe, post: 1235401, member: 5146"] 6.0 is a good motor as long as its been maintained well. Ask him about the heads coming off? Who might have done the work and if he has receipts. You can verify that the studs have been done by looking down near the covers on the driver side. You'll see a nut instead of a bolt. Ask about fuel and oil intervals, about any other maintenance he did while he was in there deleting it. If you can swing it pick yourself up a scangauge II from autozone. You can pick one up for $150, plug it into teh OBD port before taking for a drive and its cheap insurance to check for potential ECT and EOT variations. If this happens to not be the truck for you then you can use it while searching for others. I have always done this in the past. Other than that verify the 4x4 works properly, Check for oil leaks, etc. Same as any other vehicle. Good luck and you'll love that ZF6. I have one behind my 6.4 on behind my 7.3 and looking to swap one behind my 6.0 as well. EDIT:heres a link of what ARP look like from above.
