I am 99% sure that you have 7.3 Powerstroke in your engine bay.

Yup what they said. Ford did not call a powerstroke until 95. but its still the 7.3

Also check the block for some stamped numbers. Then post the numbers on a forum or call your ford dealer to get the exact details. I believe you can get the year, location where the block was produced ect.

...The right way to tell is to look at the eighth character of the vin number. 'F' means its a Power Stroke, and 'K' indicates IDI. All of the '94s had 'Turbo Diesel' under the F_50 badge whether it is a PSD or IDI. If it says DI on the plastic she's a PSD.
