Turbo Upgrade
I have a question thats related to the current discussion on the 7.3's in the Ford trucks vs the ones in the commercial vehicles but is different enough to warrant a new thread.
I was talking to an International diesel tech a year ago or so and he was telling me that the turbos and injectors on the 7.3's in the school buses were larger that what came on our trucks. Does anyone know if this is true and if you could directly swap the school bus turbo?
This would be a cheap way to get a larger turbo as there are plenty of old International school buses around....

according to the pics that I found here 95 International Navistar Retired School Bus Schoolbus : eBay Motors (item 360252852171 end time May-05-10 08:43:21 PDT)
it looks to have the same turbo as the 95 PSD. yes it is intercooled, where the 95-97 PSDs were not, but it still looks like a garrett compressor housing. More research is needed.
