Message: [QUOTE="Bersaglieri, post: 1515873, member: 30558"] Hey guys, new to PSA and 7.3's but not new to diesels. Been reading alot of threads on here over the last year or so. Bought the wife a 2002 Excursion and have been doing budget mods to it over the last year or so. PHP Hydra, straight pipe, K&N filter, gauges, and necessary suspension mods for safer driving. We put around 30,000 miles on it a year. At 320,000 miles we were experiencing injector oring failures. And so it began... It started with preparing to install Full Force 180/30 injectors and then I found out the turbo was pretty worn. Then bad uppipes, glow plugs, cups, the list goes on. The good news is that we have 400-440psi of compression in the cylinders. Now I am on a mission to replace anything that will give us issues down the road. With 320,000 miles is there anything I need to fix or replace other than what I have listed below? Yes, I know the trans will die, at least it will be quick. Current plan: Full Force 180/30 Ford/Alliant cups, glow plugs, valve cover gaskets/wiring Irate Diesel T4 kit Borg Warner s364.5sxe .91 A/R T4 Mahle top end gasket kit and Mahle bolts Gaerhead tuning Questions: 1. With 320,000 miles on the valve train, should I do valve seals and valve springs? Comp 910's? 2. Are head studs necessary for my goals? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
