possibly... I think 7.3 idi just has different heads & injection than the powerstroke. I heard of one guy put a c6 behind a powerstroke, which c6's came with 6.9 idi's i think.. keep in mind mechanical to hydraulic clutch or vise versa

my 7.3 powerstroke has a ZF5 speed which has a hydraulic clutch, I think the 4 speed you have should be mechanical. is the powerstroke auto or stick?

Do not put the powerstroke behind that 4speed... It will not last long.
