@Greg A, My name is Tyler. What's up from Maui, Hawaii. I am a Huuge fan! Your videos are awesome and very inspiring! I'm literally trying to watch every single video you have uploaded! I am hooked on your channel! I recently bought a 2004.5 Cummins 3500 (not the dually), quad cab short bed about a year ago. (one owner) It has the NV5600 I believe. Its bone stock with 130,xxx miles. All I can say is, what you are doing is Awesome! I have a list of things I want to do to my truck based off of the things that you have completed on your channel. You've educated me more in the diesel industry just by watching your videos. The tutorials you post are spot on! You've got some badass trucks man! I hope to travel up to the northeast someday to attend some of the awesome events you all have up there! Sorry for the long comment to everyone...Just wanted to say thanks for your channel! You're awesome bro! Awesome content and keep up the great work!

How this channel has changed drastically since the beginning of the first generation ram project, and the scrap truck... (Omg I loved that thing) is insane. WOW

[@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic]

You can check your block with a straight edge and feeler gauges. Max warp is .003 front to back and .002 side to side. I agree doubt it would be a problem but if you have the tools and for price of mind.

I'm in new England too in Connecticut. So I know what you mean about nasty crusty! Lol! It's awesome to see someone do this and explain the work on this engine! I'm thinking about taking a gas powered Class A motorhome and getting a wrecked truck with a Cummins. And putting in the motorhome. Maybe I can hit you up for some advice

[@smcox1991]

Back to the good ol Greg a videos! I’m with you on replacing everything that gets removed.

[@jaredanthony8070]

Theres a lot of ways to do things like surfacing cylinder heads. You can easily take it to a shop and get it magnafluxed for cracked which Cummins seem to be extremely common to crack but if you are pressed on time you can get a new sharpening stone and clean it as best as you can and use diesel or something as a lubricant to surface the head just that .001 or so to have a fresh smooth head. Now if its warped you will probably never be able to get it out by hand... but head gaskets will sometimes just decide it's the end of their life. Old paper ones especially.

[@poogan1239]

Whoah, never seen the head studs removed that way before...Crazy how all the clamping force resides between the nut and surface of the head while the studs remain only finger tightened down into the block, unless I missed where he broke torque on them?

[@mickelreeves4380]

It's always a good idea to check your head and block surfaces anytime you have a head gasket problem especially when you're talking about a inline 6 that head is way to long to not develop a little warp/twist

[@baloghlcb]

Yeah I always just shake my head when somebody doesn't have the heads checked not only for the surface, but possible cracks in the head or any valve or guide issues. Why would somebody run the risk after doing all that work just to have to tear it all back apart.

I’m new to your page and am now binge watching videos. I’m hoping you or someone that follows you can help me out with an issue. I have a ‘14 Cummins with a 68RFE. I had zero issues with my trans until I serviced it. OE parts and fluid but added a Felpro pan gasket. Now when it sits over night after startup I don’t have any gears until it idles for a minute. Yes the fluid is full checked at idle in neutral, changed the flat filters oring, changed the screw on filter nipple to steel. I just cannot figure it out.

[@sambrem0788]

Why not just reuse the head studs ? Or are they torque once items ? I thought that was why you upgraded? Just curious love the vids thanks Greg

[@keith2860]

head studs stretch to clamp the head down. thats how they stop it from lifting so its best not to re use them.

[@jefffreybrasch8882]

It’s nice to see one of your trucks dirty as hell like mine is

[@zack2008100]

It would be interesting to measure the studs to see if they stretched and if they did how much

From all your trucks, do you you have any 3rd gen exhaust brake setups? Even if it's just the 45 with the flap and would you sell one. I don't have $1400 to spend on an exhaust brake.

[@titanary68]

I know this is an old video but when it comes to the valve cover gasket/injection harness they are typically bullet proof. The issue is stupid people. My 08 6.7 Cummins junked her first HG at 57k, my fault, back then we didn’t know the Smarty Jr was the worst tuner you could put on the truck. Anyhow I sent my truck off to get studded with 625’s new HG and swap the Smarty for a H&S mini max. On the 150 mile trip home from Sutherland Diesel in Palmdale the truck started to run like crap, no power smoking like hell and on the mini max it was showing P0204 P0205 P0206, basically injector failure on the rear 3 injectors. Turned out the morons at Sutherland torqued my valve cover down to 14ft lbs. yeah the manual calls for 14in lbs. so it was a $800 tow bill and $179 for the new gasket and all was well. Until the new HG blew because they had zero idea how to properly torque head studs and do a proper hot torque so on and so on. The truck is now fire ringed which is the ONLY way to go if you want to make anything more than 400 crank HP on a first Gen 6.7
