Casey in Ky said: (quoted from post at 10:58:30 02/23/09) Just priced a complete clutch kit at Napa for a 2000 Ford 7.3, both 13 inch and 12 inch were less than $500. Is there something else I'm missing?? Or are you getting a heck of a deal on rebuilt autos?? Just curious...never owned a diesel and don't want any suprises...
Pay someone to put it in and the $$ will be similar to getting a rebuilt automatic stuck in. Parts are cheap to rebuild a auto too, it is the labor that kills you.
I would get the V-10, diesel may be cheap now but it won't be that way this summer... not to mention there are many fewer things to go wrong with a gas engine. With last summer's fuel prices a well tuned gas engine will eat a diesel alive for fuel economy.
The torqueshift that came out in '03 is also a much better auto than the one in previous SD's. The later the 6.0 the better, run don't walk away from an older one.
The 6.8l V-10 was less than $1000 more than a 5.4l V-8 on a new truck, I have yet to figure out why people would want the V-8... they both get the same milage.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
