PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: DIESELSITE’s Stand Pipe and Dummy Plug Kit for 2004.5–2010 Ford 6.0L Powerstroke
If you’re a Ford 6.0L Powerstroke owner, you already know the score. The factory stand pipes are a disaster waiting to happen, and most of the aftermarket replacements aren’t much better. Torn o-rings, flimsy oil ports, and cheap materials? Yeah, those sound like problems you don’t want to deal with when you’re halfway through a road trip or hauling a trailer up a steep grade. But don’t worry—DIESELSITE has your back with their Stand Pipe and Dummy Plug Kit, a complete overhaul of the weak link in your 6.0L system.
HOT & HAMMERED
When Bob Naudascher hauled home his self-described rust bucket, it was far from show quality. The typical oxidation process had taken its toll on the car with the floors and lower extremities of the body requiring replacement. After repairing the considerable rust and getting the body structurally sound with all panel gaps fitting perfectly, Naudascher had Jack Consonza and Carl Chuppa drop the top on the sedan two inches. In the process, the front vent windows were eliminated. While the sheetmetal was being moved, front fenders were molded, the headlights frenched and the hood was filled and shaved of all trim. The stock grille remains but has been relieved of all stainless steel in favor of a monochromatic approach.
