7.3 IDI fits under the hood of a C-Vic'. Well, not exactly "under" the hood, but it fits in there. You have to use a diff type of air cleaner on it, since the IDI has a 8" tall element (exaggerating) on it. You can use a modified pan from a 302 or 351 to clear the hood.

Make sure, if you get one, you get the transmission adapter plate with it. It will bolt straight to your OEM transmission. Although, you probably should upgrade that to deal w/the torque.
