its not
when my fan clutch on my '89 went, I went to the junkyard.
all the 7.3's up until '94 would fit.
didn't try any 6.9's but I figure they'd work too.

If I recall the 7.3 DI was larger fan clutch? don't remember.

I think you're a little confused there, as there are turbos on the 7.3's prior to the direct injections powerstrokes... he wasn't asking about them, just turbo'd. As far as I know, the 7.3 turbo and the 7.3 NA are the same, I see no reason for them to be different prior to 94.5, has nothing to do with the tirbo itself, and the temps still need to be controlled the same way. The powerstrokes were rediesigned for th edifferent way they are operated, and of course they can't keep the parts like that common, would cut into their parts sales....

I am running an 86 6.9 fan clutch on my 94 7.3 IDI turbo motor.
No problems at all.

you're right.... my bad.
I often equate turbo to powerstroke.
