Idm ?

I am looking for information on injector driver modules. I have been told that all modules between 95 - 2001 are interchangeable. Is there any reference material to support this or is there any way to decode the oem # for their applications.Are there different modules for standard and automatic?
Any help will be appreciated.
Dave

No proof, but I think all IDM's are interchangable from 94.5 to 03. All 7.3 psd's.

There have been changes in the IDM from year to year, but they will still interchange. The IDM doesn't know if it's single or split shot injection...that is a physical change in the injector and a minor programming change. The IDM is little more than an amplifier, it gets the command to fire and it supplies voltage to the injector.
