great truck, and 233k is not much for a diesel. go to the 7.3 section for all your motor info. great stuff down there.

Did you get a 7.3 or a 6.0? The 7.3 was put in the early 2003s IIRC and the 6.0 was put in the later 2003s.

You are correct. In '03, they had both engines available. As you said, the 7.3 was the early run and the 6.0 finished the year out.
