2000 F350 CC 4X PSD with everything Banks makes on it. Incredible power and 14mpg towing the sled in town and 18 on the freeway.
If you get it I highly recommend Banks products for performance. Jeff

I also get my fuel filters at local NAPA store. I think their less than $30.
Intolerant1, Watch using anything but a factory approved filter for fuel or oil with the PS. I am not saying these filters will not work, but make sure they actually meet the required specs. The injectors in the PS are very sensitive and need a very high degree of consistency at a very small particle size(I think it's around 2 micron). Same thing with the oil filter.

I have seen to many oil and fuel filter related injector and rotating group problems to take any chances. Not on PS's but on other engines that use the HEUI injection system.
