The 7.3 modifications have been interesting to read about, I've learned alot!
I doubt I would have done most of them on my 7.3. My F350 was a working truck, a tool to do a job, not a hot rod play toy, to spend my weekends tinkering with.
Getting a bigger engine, in a bigger truck, made more sense to me than getting another 7.3 old body truck (a
'95-'97 F-Superduty was considered) and spending thousands of dollars and countless hours building it into something it isn't. Even though I do truly love the old body trucks, and the 7.3. I much prefer the old body over the '99-up body.
A Ford Pinto can be turned into a bad@ss 1-ton diesel dually, with enough creativity, money and time (and I would love to see one done!). But doesn't it make more sense to just buy an actual 1-ton diesel dually, and be done with it, if that's what you need?
