The addition of a larger swash-plate-style pump makes adding high performance modifications to the 1999-2003 7.3L Powerstroke engine easier. These late model trucks also included a 17° swash plate High Pressure Oil Pump to provide an increased oil volume. Horsepower increased from 201 hp to 275 hp and torque increased from 425 lb-ft to 525 lb-ft. With these performance improvements the power levels of the 7.3L Powerstroke significantly improved.

The transmission options available were the new 4R110 Automatic and the ZF S6-650 6-Speed Manual Transmission. New automatic and manual transmissions were also introduced for the Super-Duty lineup. Higher flowing 140cc injectors split-shot fuel injectors were larger than the 120cc injectors used on the previous generation 7.3L Powerstroke. The early 1994-1997 model years used a Garret TP38, and the 1999-2003 models used the Garrett GTP38 which featured a wastegate. Another enhancement to the 7.3L Powerstroke was the upgraded Garrett turbocharger. For the 1999-2003 models, Ford improved the fuel lift pump by converting the cam-driven mechanical pump to an electric pump to provide better fuel system performance. This air-to-air intercooler increased the horsepower of the engine while also reducing exhaust gas temperatures (EGT). In 1999, Ford added an intercooler to the 7.3L Powerstroke, to cool the compressed air from the turbo, creating denser air to support a more efficient combustion process. The 7.3L Powerstroke has become one of the most sought-after diesel engines in a pickup for its reputation of durability and longevity. In 2002 the 2,000,000th 7.3L Powerstroke-equipped Ford pickup truck came off the assembly line. When Ford announced their Super-Duty lineup the demand for these trucks skyrocketed. This would be the first year Ford refers to their F-250/350/450 pickup trucks as the Super-Duty lineup with new body styles, transmission options, and more upgrades to enhance durability and performance.
In 1999 Ford made some major changes to their truck lineup and to the 7.3L Powerstroke engine.
