6.0 turbo conversion on a 7.3

Looking to do a 6.0 turbo swap on my 97 7.3. Looking to see if you guys could help me out. I'm wondering how difficult it will be to find the pedestal, or if the VGT turbo will mount on the existing 7.3. I have an idea on how the wiring will go I'm just a it lost on the whole turbo mounting. Lets see what you guys got.

Thanks

Not worth it will take alot to fab up a mounting braket, then you still have to make the VGT selenoid to work, for the $$ go the T4 route cheaper and kits are available.

Lots of fab work, wore it and figure out how to operate the VGT.
IMO it’s not worth it. You have way better options than that.

There are much better options available. Do you have any modifications yet?
