You could always get a N/A crank, rods, balancer, and flywheel/flexplate. Then you'd have the same basic thing. You may also be able to get just a N/A crank and have the rest of the rotating assembly balanced.
I think that the factory turbo motor used a different balance. There is a lot of confusing information out there so I could be wrong. I know that the harmonic balancer and flexplate connecting rods are different.According to my rebuilder book all IDI engines use the same crankshaft ,1805420C1 .
Yes , the information I have say the IDIT uses a different balancer, flexplate to offset the heaver weight of the connecting rods and pistons. All other rotating parts are the same IDI and IDIT.I think that the factory turbo motor used a different balance. There is a lot of confusing information out there so I could be wrong.

Source for that? even the information you shared on the IDIT says nothing about different crankshaft. Not doubting you just what to have the correct information for future .Your rebuild book is incorrect, the 7.3 na 7.3t and 6.9 all have their own specific cranks
Lot of different information floating around it looks like, One reason why I like to take a complete running engine and rebuild that compared to just building one from random parts.Look at the picture I posted you can visually see the difference in the balance between the cranks. You can use any idi crank in any 6.9,7.3.,7.3t, but they will need to be balanced to that rotating assembl
