How many miles?
Pull and Oasis report and see how problematic it has been.
Any reports on what or if anything has been changed or worked on i.e. head gaskets, head bolts/studs, egr, etc. etc.
What do you plan on using it for? If you’re going to be running it wide open everywhere and pulling huge *** loads you will want to run tunes, and have the studs installed on the heads. But if you plan on just normal use it will do the job.
I just picked up and 2003 and it had 287,XXX miles on it. Just had the head gaskets, and a bunch of other stuff done to it. So I have utmost confidence in it. But I just bought it for a weekend rig, and I don't plan on pulling huge *** loads or running it to the ground. The truck is good, and the 6.0 isn't so bad. They have a bad reputation, however I've met a couple people with allot of trouble free miles on them.
Good luck with your decision?

Thanks for the reply. I was told that this engine was rebuilt so i dont know what else has all been done to it. Tomorrow the guy who owns it will be around so i guess ill find out more then. and i will be useing it mostly for regular use. My dad just got a 6.0l, and the injectors troubled almost right aways, but his truck had high mileage and he drives over 300 kms every day 5 days a week.
