Default 03 F250 superduty help

Hey everyone. I am in need of some advice. Thanks in advance for anyone who can help. I have a 03 f250 SD with a 6l diesel. My question is what are my options as far as engine replacement go? I dont want another 6l. Is there any conversion combo that will work without having to completely redo this truck. Can I put a 7.3 l in it or is there anything else? Thanks again

I believe the cummins is a popular swap with a company specializing in it. I don't remember the name of the company but it's out there

Really if the 6.0 hasn't blown yet. Bulletproof it and build power. It really is a great motor once you do a few key mods to prevent the head gasket from blowing. You can make 400hp with a tune pretty much.

Exactly. Everybody dogs on them but they are really better than the 7.3 in some aspects

I would replace it with another 6.0 if you need a new engine ...upgrade head bolts, egr delete, upgrade the FICM and an sct and you'll have one heck of a truck!!
