Unless you want to replace your rockers soon you better take 6.6's advice.
How does the dpf/or egr impact the rockers? I have heard issues with rockers but did not know they were related.

I don't know if Ford came up with this dim bulb idea or if it was Nav's stupid idea? (my guess say's it was Nav's?)
Nav's 6.4 junk rockers.

The saying goes as follows. 6.4s run very well for short periods of time.
