I bought my 01 F-250 7.3L about 3 months ago and i love it to death. I've been doing tons of searching and reading trying to get as much knowledge as possible. So in my research i wanted to get a few questions asked.
-What exactly is the stock hp / tq of an 01 7.3L, i've seen so many people say different things. So far it looks to be around 235 hp 500 ish ft lbs of torque.
-What is the stock boost pressure of the 7.3
I read that the 99-00 had forged rods but the 01+ had other rods, are these engines condierably weaker?
which goes into my next question, what kind of hp can i expect to safely run on my stock 01 7.3L? Are these engine prone to any problems with mods or are they fairly reliable.
I planned on doing intake, exhaust and an Edge evo 2 on my truck. I figured that would get me close to 320-340 hp
And whats the difference between the 6.0 and the 7.3, i read the 6.0 makes way more hp modded, just curious why.
Sorry for all the questions but i'm a sponge and i want to absorb as much as possible. I've been building turbo cars for a while but this is my first diesel. Feed me knowledge
