Are you stock otherwise.

I am between two trucks, one with low 57K and stock except head bolts, and new EGR, and one with 87K and the mods.
I purchased the Sinister Delete Kit for less that 300 and the SCT controller was about 375. While I have it apart I'm replacing the oil cooler it hasn't been changed and they are they will give up at some point. It's wasn't very much fun last night hanging over the front of the truck. There is several delete kits on the market, this one changes the down pipe that hooked to the egr cooler that's why it a little more. The rest of of the engine is stock even the exhaust.

Dolla- The H2 has a 6.0 gas engine and is only rated to pull about 7500 lbs. That poor motor must of been straining.
