I have a 1996 Powerstroke with the 7.3 that I have done some mods on. I have a 60 hp chip, and am always tempted to add more power in order to pull my fifth wheel up the grades faster. However, the addition of larger injectors and other power adders must have an affect on engine longevity and durability, don't they? How about today's high horsepower engines? Will they have the longevity of the tried and true engines that had the potential to go 500,000 to 1,000,000 miles?
