I blew the head gasket awhile back and then winter came and my babygirl was born so just wandering if it would sale the way it sits or if i need to tear it down and fix the head gasket. would like to get 12500 will get pics up when wife gets home thanks Cody

How much if any damage did the head gasket do? Just need a new set of gaskets and go?

Heard of blowing a head gasket with boost obviously, just never knew what kind of damage it does.

Not sure where "Moore" is, but what do you think about selling the truck minus the engine, turbo, and trans?

Looks like a nice truck. Unless you are planning on selling it super cheep, or parting it out fix it first. Just go with some Ls9 gaskets, arp bolts, and surface the heads. Even if it costs you 1000.00 you would be $ ahead. A hurt truck isn't worth much.

Moore is right outside of Oklahoma city. I have ridden in this truck before, but that was when it was N/A
