Yeah right just like the power stroke is.
I have one and there isn't a damn part except maybe some bolts that will fit any other GM engine. I am a LONG TIME GM guy, going back 30 years.
You are blowing smoke on this one.
With routine maintenance these last just about as long.
What kills them are harmonic balancers that go bad and are not replaced when they should be.
Their IP's are not as long lived as soem but they are cheap to get rebuilt.
AND they are not subject to the cavitation related failure the powerstroke is famous for, AND the parts are nowwhere near as expensive. I will not argue they are the best out there but they are nowhere near what YOU are trying to paint them as.
