idk what size it is, but its probably to big for the average street truck, a guy at a local shop told me that a street truck would have a hard time getting an hx50 to light

A H2e is perfect for a 7.3 with stock injectors... I am running a modded H2e with larger compressor and exhaust wheels...

The L10 didn't come out until '82...

HX50 is more suited to the 14L engines like the ISX.
