Im glad it got resolved for you, just make sure and pop those gaskets at like 148k then get your ARP's in and your good.

I am glad everything worked out but looking at the oasis report they never changed the original head gaskets. only the egr cooler and the oil cooler.

That's odd that the Oasis report doesn't show changing the head gaskets. I've got the paperwork from the Ford dealership for all the work done and it definitely shows the head gaskets being replaced. Wouldn't surprise me if they were never done at this point, but at least I've got a warranty in writing.

Appreciate all the help from everyone here!!!!

SWAMP's diesel repairs FICM's if they aren't too far gone - for less than half what one from the dealership costs.
