Yes, there is considerably more available real estate under the hood of the Ram/Cummins compared to the Ford/Powerstroke. This was another one of my reasons for going with the Cummins; more room=easier repairs=less overall operating and repair costs over the long haul. There is a reason why most hotshotters use the Ram/Cummins! :C
Yeah, I have done my own work on my engine except for the water pump that was replaced under recall by the dealership. So for I have removed some engine exhaust parts, replaced the turbo for a larger fixed geometry turbo, replaced the exhaust manifold for a higher flow pulse manifold, and installed head studs. I also replaced the after engine exhaust system myself which was kind of a pain in the arse holding the downpipe on the turbo with one hand while trying to the clamp around it and the turbo flange with the other. Never had an issue with space or needing to remove a ton of plastic parts to get to stuff.
