[QUOTE="Fordcowboy, post: 205601, member: 312"] When I bought my truck, I had the same thoughts as you in mind. My plans however included upgrading the motor to where I wanted it. I wanted more power, so I intended to replace certain parts when the time came, and to upgrade them. Some got replaced before they were due, but some were forced upgrades because the original parts needed replaced. Yes, I have replaced HPOP, Injectors, and Trubo, all for upgrades. Did they need replacing...for optimal performance, YES. Would it have out pulled your 460 without being replaced, YES. I could still be running my truck with 300k miles, completely stock, with no issues at all. Well...issues to someone concerned about details, but to your average Joe, no issues. My HPOP was performing sub-par, but still ran fine. Same goes for all the other parts that have been upgraded. Aside from my optional upgrades, it has been normal wear and tear parts. Water pump, alternator, batteries, and that is it. Your truck may not be running at optimal performance, from what you have researched on the forums, but you are also dealing with us folks that are concerned with every little detail. That doesn't mean that your truck won't perform great for what you need without replacing those expensive parts...it just may not perform at it's peak potential. [/QUOTE]
