Hey I love your videos there very informative and good quality. I wanted to know since you work on the 6.0 and 6.4 which would you prefer if you were planning on bullet proofing what ever you got?
I clean the oil and coolant galleys with rags and brake clean. Scotch Bright Pads on a sanding block would be good to use. Don’t use the circular scotch disc, they are too abrasive and definitely not recommended, especially with multi-layer gaskets.
@PWRSTR0KER2008 From everything I found, The low pressure turbo failed and leaking oil into intake. The oil causing the high pressure turbo to fail. That combination caused the valve failure. I did find the front engine cover also has cavitation and will be replaced.
The cylinder head was removed for loss of compression on cylinder 1. Both the intake and exhaust valve seats were completely worn into the head causing the valves to stick, and pushrods to bend. This head was removed for inspection and all passed for reassembly.

Thanks for the great comments! If I would build a 6.0 over a 6.4, the bottom end of the 6.0 is far stronger and capable of running it hard!

Why was this in the shop? I would think it would be years before it needed this kind of work.

This engine had a lifter fail and bent a push rod. I had to remove the head to replace the lifter. These 6.4lit have not been as tough as the 6.0lit!

Hot tanking does work, but it take a while and you still need to clean the surface. This works quick and it does a great job!

What about oil and coolant passages? Also what is your opinion on scotch brite pads for block surface prep?

why do you use the bar stock instead of the roloc discs? And what is the part number for the cleaner

What caused the valve seats to wear out like that?

So why did you have to remove the head? Were you replacing the head gasket?
