I thought I’d give y’all a blurb on why I decided to switch from the 2H to the 6.0. I won’t lie I never thought I’d go this way.

After driving around the 40 to school this past year or so I just love the feeling of being able to put my foot to the gas and get somewhere. The 350 with the 3 spd has been awesome and never struggles to get me where I need to go. Having the extra horsepower just makes sense for the kind of driving we do in Dallas and is far more practical than a 2H would be. Turbo kits are also very expensive…

Then comes reliability. Although the 2H is a very reliable and bullet proof engine, it also has its downsides with sourcing parts. After watching @POTATO LAUNCHER and @SipLife walk into Autozone and Oreillys for whatever they’re heart desires, it’s hard not to be sold.

So there we have it. The 2H won’t go to waste. We’ve been wanting to diesel swap Kermit (my dads 40) for a while and now we have a rebuilt engine to do it. 6.0 baby
