Van Turbo

Is the 98 van turbo the same turbo that is used to upgrade or is it to old?

That's the older style. You need one from a L99 or up.

Hey Joe off the subject but do you know if every thing on 01 engine fit on a 97-98 block? Just got a 4x4 van with a 7.3. Yep that turbo set up on the 97 looks smaller.

Thanks

Are they any good? My plan was to swap motors if it will work. Do you know if my 01 parts will fit the 97 block such as turbo, up pipes,hpop etc?

Thanks
