[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 513256, member: 1682"] Only major problem with '03 7.3 is powdered connecting rods. Might cause a headache later. I would look at a 2000 7.3 with low miles, have cast connecting rods. Not a bad price. If it was a manual, I would definitely go for it. At any rate, your buying the best motor that International ever made and one of most fuel efficient of any diesel. Edit: I should add that your highway mileage unloaded should be somewhere around 17-19 mpg. My 1995 F-250 gets up to 22-23 when I want it to, but it takes away from the fun of showing off :cowboy: :lol: . With proper and religious maintenance, you can expect at least another 150,000 miles on the original motor. Mine is at 229,500 miles right now with stock injectors. [/QUOTE]
