Go for it, see what he has to say. I would think the internals of the PCM wouldnt be that different than a Powerstroke PCM.dont know but there is only one way to find out........... lets PM him!!
the IDM/PCM is one unit bolted to the passengers side valve cover in the IH trucks.i sent him a PM so we will see what he has to say.i gave him a link to this thread also

I have seen this stunt before of swapping what CAT mechanics call ECM from one arrangement to another. The results are sickening. A 550HP 3406E in a bobtail pete 379 dropped to 7th pulling a hill that it would pull before in 13th loaded to 94K. Boy that owned the truck called me and said he had a new "HOT" ecm put on and now the truck wouldnt blow smoke if ya set it on fire. My simple instructions was to recover the old ECM and Iwould come by and recalibrate and reinstall. I also added to leave **** alone that was over his head, if he wanted to give away money I would take all he would give. Well I have rambled on, just thought I would share that tidbit.
i could be wrong but IIRC the IH trucks dont use an OBD2 port.IH has there own plug style.my buddy has an 02 IH 4700 with a DT466E in it and i cant hook my scanner up to it cuz it doesnt have the OBD plug it has a round plug.
