I suspect we should wait on that considering how the bigger truck engines are rated.

The 6.2L F250/350 is rated 385 hp @ 5,750 rpm. The F450 and up 6.8L V10 is rated 288 hp @ 4,000 rpm.

I suspect that the ratings for the F250/F350 pickups may be different than the rating for the bigger trucks.

The hp rating for the 6.7L diesel is lower for a F350 cab & chassis than the pickup versions.......not one answer.

The new 6.7L will have 1000 lb ft of of torque. with a single turbo. no need for a 7-800 lb ft twin turbo gas engine that get 3 mpg.

I wonder how much the ridiculous diesel emission standards have to do with this whole project.  VW and others got caught cheating over that BS...

I doubt it. It's got everything to do with replacing the 6.8L V10.

The link 83-88 T-bird guy posted in the General Discussion section says 450 hp!!

Two alternators!!

Posted this in the other thread but I dont think everyone is looking at both so I'll paste it here for everyone;

According to this article it has a 107.2 mm (4.22 in) bore and 101mm (3.98 in) stroke. With a bore that large I wonder if the bore spacing is larger than the 6.2 v8's 115mm (4.527 in) BS. I know a 4.22 bore would fit in that BS, but for a HD application I bet Ford wanted more material in the walls and room for water jackets. Also, a Ford engineer said the 7.3 is 4 inches longer than the 6.2. Hmmmm

The article also mentions the 7.3 is 50lbs lighter (than the outgoing V10 presumably). Which puts it at around 570lbs. Thats comparable to iron block LS and new Hemis.

How long till one of these gets stuffed into a Fox Body? That 10 speed automatic would fit right into my Galaxie since it doesn't have a floor yet...

3.98 stroke--same as a 428.

Almost the same bore as a 427

Heck, almost the bore of a 427, 428 stroke, cross-bolted mains, inline valves--looks like us 385 guys got kicked to the curb for a modern FE!

So long as the valve covers don't bolt to the intake and they fixed the oiling system thats ok with me.

Although, I still think the intake valves are slightly canted.

I like FEs too. Got a a few of them around here.

I'm an FE fan as well. Used to have a '68 Cougar factory GT390 car. Pulled the 390 and replaced with a built Edelbrock headed 428. C-6, 3000 stall, 389 traction lock. That thing would smoke the stock sized tires about as long as you wanted to stay in it. Put it in drive, take off from a dead stop and it would shift through the gears broiling the tires the whole time.

Had a 427 top oiler block that needed a bunch of work sitting in the garage for several years. Sold it when I realized I'd never do anything with it.

Have a complete 2v '62 Mercury 352 removed from a 2 door Monterey about 25 years ago I picked up from a friend recently. For sale...

Anyway, sorry for the threadjack.

Looks like it will be in F250's and up. How many F-250 through F-550's will be made with this engine in them. We may have a good engine for our Fords in the salvage yards in years to come.

Curious if this will be offered in a crate engine?

I saw an ad in my local truck sales magazine that had new a Ford F-600 with an "8-L" gas engine. Could this be the same engine???

For 2020 the F600 name plate will be back. The 2020 are not in production yet.
