FWIW - you can bulletproof a 6.0 for around $5k. An aftermarket EGR cooler, head studs, aftermarket HPOP, and a coolant filter are all that are really needed to make one last a long time.
I get what you're saying, and agree with PMs/mods, but if you have to drop 5k to make a stock engine reliable it's not a good engine.
