Crusing around the max I use is 1250, Passing and such I have pegged the 1600 a time or two, sled pulls, and such... With the H2e I have yet to see over 1400 in the race setting and hybrids now!
Very similar numbers to those that I had with my 7.3. I know youve had a couple of engines apart, have you seen or noticed any issues with those kind of EGT's?

With 120k on my old motor there was no damage to any pistons other then the one I cooked... Using that limit I would expect to see some small cracks in the fuel bowl area after 120-150k, but they will not really propagate any further...

I think lots of water injection helped mine...:tounge
