yep 6.9's throught 87 stock. 4 speed manual is a NP435 most likely maybe a t-18/19.
It is a smalled bored 7.3. Will last longer also if taken care. Not as likely to have caviation like a 7.3. Almost all the parts froma 7.3 will bolt up including the turbos

Those 6.9 last years apon years.
They don't make enough power to brake anything.
But it will tow at 50MPH all day long.

Transmission is a T19, won't be anything else unless it has been swapped.
A 6.9 is a good solid, dependable engine, biggest issues on them are air leaks in the fuel system due to old rubber hoses and o-rings cracking, that's about it tho.
Don't expect to win races with it as a N/A engine, but, it will get you there.
