I ended up with a 1999 F550 with the 7.3 power stroke with pickup bed. Already bullet proof from the factory.
Now that's some advice.
Except for this statement, which I'm curious about. Bulletproof Diesel is a private company that remans Ford oem equipment into upgraded, more effective parts that perform better and address the now known problem areas with the 6.0. So far as I know, Ford won't "factory install" these parts. Which is why I'm curious. Is that what happened, or were the upgrades actually aftermarket? Curious minds want to know! :)
Not a modified 7.3. Not familiar with bulletproof diesel. My statement is related to the 7.3 powerstroke not the 6.0. M 7.3 has over 240,000 miles and runs with no issues. My sons has over 300,000 and again no issues. Great motor you can expect 500,000 miles out of.
Hence the generic term Bullet proof.
