Who made my engine?
Newby here, probably asking newby questions.
New to diesels, and have just bought my first - 2000 7.3L F250 SD.
I've been told that there were maybe two manufacturers of the 7.3.
Who are they, and how do I tell who made mine?

Were the manufactures Ford, Navistar or International by chance?
Is your passenger side valve cover clean? If so, there may still be a sticker there that looks something like this.
Cannot get the image to upload because of the new format in which the forum is run, sorry.

There was only one manufacturer and that was Navistar International often referred to as International.

I believe this is the sticker that was refereed to earlier, it’s the only one on the passenger side that has anything useful on it
