We had a bunch of those in our conventional style school buses. International sent out a team to do full updates on those engines which included changing the head gaskets out and a bunch of other stuff to them. They ran good before but ran even better after all the updates were done.
Very interesting to see a 6.0 cousin. It would be hard to go back to working on a Ford 3/4 and 1 ton truck where there is no room in the blankity-blank engine compartment.
I’ll never complain about working on a pickup chassis 6.0 after doing injectors, stand pipes, oil cooler reseal and harness on an E350 cutaway van. What a pain in the ass, makes trucks feel like a playground under the hood.
Thank you for doing this. Now if you could show us an International MAXXFORCE 6.0D Powered Vehicle like the CXT, MXT-TSV, MXT-MVA or MXT-APC that would be a real treat. A lot of people don’t know these engines came in military vehicles too. The Brits love their “husky” vehicles.
I came to see where the CCV is routed on the vt365 compared to the powerstroke. You can see in the first part of the video the CCV is routed to ATMOSPHERE on the vt365. It’s the hose he grabbed with his hand
If I were an owner of that I would immediately straight pipe it like how ford does it so it would sound exactly like a 6.0 powerstroke then race it against one which thats what that truck sounds nice for 👍
I had a customer VT 365 decal made for the back window for my '05 6.0! in your opinion what is the best mods for the 6.0 to keep it reliable? can you de-tune a 6.0 for more reliability?
I’m sure you could but I wouldn’t be able to make myself do it. To be reliable I’d do something with the egr cooler, make sure to run a quality elc coolant, coolant filtration, blue spring, do something with the cat if it still has it and if it on factory head bolts don’t tune it at all and they are actually pretty good with that. Have several customers who are in factory bolts and gaskets and did nothing but the above and run great. Now if you wanna tune it fork out the money for kill devil oring heads and arp studs with oem gaskets along with the above and your good to go.
My 06 6.0 is studded, no cat, Rotella elc, 6.7 steering box and engine is a rebuilt from Blackwater like 12 years ago before they went to 💩 lol Running the MPD 2.4 tune from PCD and good lord my 8000lb truck is a frickin rocket when I want it to be 😁
Super cool to see a 6.0 in its original form! Thanks for sharing !

Interesting, thanks for the video 👍😁
Did you happen to see where the crankcase breather is? Is it to the atmosphere?

What about CCV? Is it different? What do you recommend on the new 6.0 systems?
@@ardenbriggs1190 what are you referring to as new?
@@AutomedicGarage 06- 2010 I should have said the later versions... my bad
@@ardenbriggs1190 as far as the vt365 goes I’m not sure what if any changes were made to the CCV
7.3 fan clutch best mod for towing makes the 6.0 so much cooler…. But know it will be louder on the daily
Sounds like a 6.0
Yup. It's a sound coming from the exhaust.
