I was at the local speed shop picking up some valve stems for my rims.



I was talking with the owner, who was telling me a customer was just busted by Ford.



He had a F-350 Super Duty with whatever Turbo Diesel they come with. He had it chipped boosting god knows how much. Well he tried to race a ricer with his truck. The problem was he was towing his 31' boat at the time. He lifted the heads off the block.



He towed it home pulled the chip and called for Ford to tow it in and have a look see.



Ford called a factory rep, who came and hooked up a laptop down loaded the datalogging and voided his warranty.



He gets to buy his own engine. Caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

if only the guy knew how many problems Ford is having with thier new 6.0 powerstroke diesels!

they have purchased almost 500 of them back so far because people were on thier 3rd engine



alot of them out there are on thier 2nd engine already.
