Help me scavenge an econoline!
I drive a 1996 f350 7.3, and have to opportunity to get some "upgrades" from an 01 econoline powerstroke. The van has 90k and a dead cylinder (the guy's crew used ether 
). 500 miles before it happened it received a brand new turbo. My OBS turbo is going out and i've been looking at budget options to upgrade. I was hoping that the econoline had an intercooler so I could get the whole exhaust manifold to 3" plenums and be done! 
At least I could get the exhaust manifolds, uppipes and turbo.
Are the later 7.3 E series turbos larger, and what injectors will it support?
They have 3" plenums >> am I correct?
-I'm thinking I scavenge exh manifolds, up pipes, collector, turbo, plenums.
-Would the 17deg hpop be a much better improvement to run my stg2? (my stock 15deg has 247k on it).
-Should I worry about the e fuel system?
Thanks for any input!

I've come to the conclusion from reading it does have the 3" plenums.. What will the late 7.3 van turbo support injector wise?
Any used 7.3 intercooler/pipes for cheap? Thanks!
