Yea just put money aside for injectors, gp's, and uvc harness is all I can say. Yea tranny is really the only weak point on the early superduties. I dont think my tranny has been touched, atleast that I know of from what records I have from Ford. 200k is nothin for a 7.3. Lots with well over 300k. Powerstroke helps ole 7.3 had over 700k on it when it finally blew a rod and they used that thing as a tester for all their go fast goodies. Maintenance is key on any truck. Mine has over 275k and still runs great.
