International couldn't get the 7.3 to pass 2003 emision standards.

In a word , emissions, that's the main reason driving all the changes in automotive manufacturing these days, in brazil you can buy ford trucks with a VE pumped 5.9 cummins engine in them , that engine would never pass the emissions here at the power levels consumers demand in new trucks these days.

Did they even try?? I am sure if they would have gone with 32 valves like the Duramax it could have been done!
They need to bring back the 6.9
