6.4's are monsters in comparison to 7.3's lol my deleted 6.4 runs circles around my Dad's 7.3 with relatively similar mods. Both have a tune, exhaust, and intake. There's just no comparison. My fastest 0-60 time is a 6.9, idk what the 7.3 runs but I know it's nowhere close lol I haven't driven a deleted 6.7 on the highway to know how it compares.

0-60 is about 2 minutes. You can microwave a hot pocket by the time you hit 60.

Basically, but the 6.4 will be long dead before the 7.3 wears out. 200k miles and counting only major repair was the built BTS trans installed back in January after 2nd gear went bye bye

They are two different platforms too though..it's like comparing a 460 to a 4valve 4.6..7.3 is a work horse/6.0 is still a tq monster but loves to scream on the high end too..especially cammed
And I love the sound of a 6.0..but has the high pressure oil crap

But for the cost of getting a 7.3 to the level of a 6.4 you'd be in it enough to rebuild a 6.4 and truly "bulletproof" it lol.
