Yes, There's actually a few scan tools in a dealership, Not up on ford stuff so much, I know there was WDS and some others. Again not real sure.
My choice on the older Strokes was always a brick or solus. they seem to communicate better. My brick (mt2500) will still read powerstrokes that my expensive scan tools claim no communication.
There's about 5 pages of verification test that a shop will go through before calling it a failed computer. but if your doing it yourself, you can throw the parts at it and see if it works.

well I am doing it myself, but I did have a ford diesel mechanic stop and work on it. I hope I can trust his word. the new pcm is installed and he is stopping today to program it.

Re: 7.3 NO START
Most suppliers, (even advance) will sell computers that have been loaded with your vins most current calibration and data files. And actually there are a few tricks with tuners that can load stock files into the ecm. The latter option is for those with experience in advanced reflashes.
