Early 99 Ford 7.3L Powerstroke Drop-In 63/70 Turbo

Q: How do I know if my 1999 F-250 is an Early 99 or a 1999.5?

Your build date on the door jamb sticker is the most reliable way to confirm. A 1999 model year badge alone is not enough. If your build date is before the mid-year changeover, the P1997.363/70 is correct.

The Position 1 Performance P1997.363/70 is a 100% new billet 63/70 drop-in turbo built specifically for Early 1999 Ford 7.3L Power Stroke Super Duty trucks, the fitment-correct upgrade for early-build F-250 and F-350 owners replacing a failed factory GTP38 or chasing more airflow over stock. The P1997.363/70 fits Early 1999 7.3L Power Stroke applications only, ships with the EBV delete pedestal, discharge flange, and gasket kit included, and requires no core return.

Buy this if...

Your truck is a confirmed Early 1999 7.3L Power Stroke Super Duty.
You want more airflow capacity than a stock-spec cast wheel replacement offers.

Do not choose this if...

Your truck is a 1999.5-2003 Super Duty - order the 99.5-03 63/70 turbo instead.
Your truck is a 1994-1997 OBS 7.3L - order the OBS 63/70 turbo instead.

Verify before ordering...

Confirm your build date puts you in the Early 1999 window, not 1999.5 or later.

Billet 63/70 or Stock-Style Replacement

Buy the P1997.363/70 for more airflow capacity and a billet 5-blade compressor wheel with a 70mm 10-blade turbine - not for a factory-behavior restoration. Verify your build date, then add it to your build list. No core return is required, and the EBV delete pedestal, discharge flange, and gasket kit are included in the box.

No Core Required: Keep or recycle the old turbo

Warranty: 1 year unlimited mile, parts and workmanship

Condition: 100% new, not rebuilt or remanufactured

Ships: Usually 1-2 business days

Why the Billet Wheel Matters

The billet 5-blade 63mm inducer compressor wheel on the P1997.363/70 flows more air than the cast wheel in a stock-spec GTP38 replacement, paired with a 70mm 10-blade turbine, HD journal bearings, and HD 360 thrust. The HD wastegate actuator ships pre-installed. The EBV delete pedestal removes the factory exhaust back pressure valve system from the install path - a common upgrade step on this platform.

7.3L Power Stroke 63/70 Version Split

Position 1 Performance builds this 63/70 in three fitment-specific versions with different pedestals and housings - they are not interchangeable between year ranges.

Version	Fitment	Part Number
94-97 OBS	1994-1997 7.3L OBS	P1OBS63/70
Early 99 (this page)	Early 1999 7.3L Super Duty	P1997.363/70
1999.5-2003	1999.5-2003 7.3L Super Duty	P199.57.3-63/70

Avoid These Common Mistakes

Ordering the 1999.5-2003 version for an Early 99 truck - the pedestal and housing differ.
Assuming the factory EBPV pedestal transfers over - this ships with an EBV delete pedestal instead.
Ordering this for a 94-97 OBS truck - that platform uses a different housing and pedestal.

Fitment Coverage

Fits Early 1999 Ford 7.3L Power Stroke Super Duty trucks only.

Early 1999 Ford F-250 Super Duty 7.3L Power Stroke
Early 1999 Ford F-350 Super Duty 7.3L Power Stroke

Before You Order

For a confirmed Early 1999 Ford 7.3L Power Stroke Super Duty, the P1997.363/70 is the correct billet 63/70 drop-in to order. Confirm fitment, then proceed with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click or tap any question below to open the answer.

How do I know if my 1999 F-250 is an Early 99 or a 1999.5?

Your build date, found on the door jamb sticker, is the most reliable way to confirm. A 1999 model year badge alone is not enough. If your build date is before the mid-year changeover, the P1997.363/70 is correct. If you are 1999.5 or later, order the 99.5-03 63/70 turbo instead.

Does the P1997.363/70 come with the pedestal and gaskets?

Yes. The P1997.363/70 ships with the EBV delete pedestal, discharge flange, and gasket kit included. Nothing needs to be sourced separately for the core turbo installation on this application.

Is there a core charge on this turbo?

No. The P1997.363/70 carries no core charge. You are not required to return your old turbo to complete the purchase.

What is the difference between the Early 99, 99.5-03, and OBS versions of this turbo?

All three share the same core billet wheel and turbine spec but use different pedestals, flanges, and housings matched to each year range. The P1997.363/70 is for Early 1999 Super Duties only. Do not interchange these between year ranges.

My Early 99 7.3L has low boost or is surging - is this the right part to fix it?

If the turbo is confirmed as the source of low boost or surging on an Early 1999 7.3L Power Stroke, the P1997.363/70 is the correct billet drop-in. Verify the issue is traced to the turbo rather than up-pipes, charge pipes, or intercooler boots, as those are common boost leak points on this platform before ordering.
