6.9 Turbo on 7.3

What would have to be done to fit a 6.9 turbo on a 7.3 motor? The 6.9 is a 88 and the 7.3 is an 89. What parts would i need to interchange

RCrawler is gaining momentum as a positive member of FTE.
The last year of the 6.9 was 87. The turbo setup should be a straight forward bolt on to the 7.3.

The part numbers for the exhaust manifolds are the same for 6.9L and 7.3L. So the exhaust parts will bolt right up from the 6.9L to the 7.3L. The real obstacle is the inner fenders when unbolting and bolting in the manifolds. If your doing that much work I would drop the inner fenders out just to save aggravation. My 2 Pennies
