A 7.3 IDI is a 7.3 IDI no matter how you look at it.

yeah, they swap same for same, just a PITA to do because of weight. i wouldn't worry about the mileage too much if it's been properly serviced. i would check the coolant to make sure they had the proper DCAs in the fluid to know there was less chance of cavitation eating through the cylinder walls.
