Ok , got the injector thing figured out , had 2 bad injectors , replaced those 2 ran awesome for 2 days , started smoking white , thought the egr cooler crapped out , till this morning went to start it coolant in the cylinder , would the egr cooler allow coolant in the cylinder ? I don't think it would based on the location n the system ? feedback please ? and the head gasket cannot be done without lifting the cab ? correct
Question stuck in 6.0 hell ,

Yes it could, thru the exhaust valve.

The exhaust gases are sucked through the egr cooler back into intake, hence exhaust gas recirculation. So yes, if the cooler leaks it can suck coolant into the cylinders.
Google 6.0 head gasket test, there are a number of youtube videos that might help you narrow it down.
You can replace the head gaskets with out removing the cab. You can find multiple write up on google, but the jist of it is that you put in the head bolts or studs in the head and use zip ties to hold the up so they don't stick out the bottom of the head and interfere with the install.

My screw-up, Seth is right in that the coolant would enter the engine thru the intake, if the EGR cooler is leaking.
