And the V10 has one of the flattest torque curves of any naturally aspirated gas engines. It puts out 400 FT. LB's at just 1900 RPM.

 

I had a magazine where I red an article promoting a prototype.It was a 5.0 v8. The output was 500 hp and 700 tq. This engine designed for the superdutty line. I think might be an ecoboost. The only difference it needs metano or ethanol along with gasoline in a different container. Maybe somebody knows what I am talking about.

 

I hope the rumors are true.

 

 

The 3.5 ecoboost puts down an even 420 ft lbs right from 2000-4500 RPM.
And look at the tranny it comes with.

 

And the V10 puts it's peak of 457 ft lbs at 3750. 3.5 Ecoboost comes up a bit short..... I like the 3.5 Ecoboost, but it's not enough for a F550.

 

Even a 2-valve V10 puts out 425 peak.

 

I don't believe that anyone is recommending the 3.5L Ecoboost for the Super Duty line. We are discussing the 5.0L and 6.2L Ecoboost that does not exist at this time.

 

I have asked the question about a 5.0 EB and the engineers I spoke said that right now there are no plans to have a 5.0 EB. I have heard rumors of a 4.4 Power Stroke Diesel option though. Personally I would like to see both.

 

This is sort of a pointless comparison, but the 3.5 EB engine TQ curve is way more steady than even the V10.

The v10 might have more, but this is the 1/2 ton ecoboost. If we see a 5.0 ecoboost, it would murder every gas engine, and possibly even the diesel.

 

IMHO I think we'll see a 5.0 ecoboost first, but if dodge goes diesels in the half tons, I expect for would be ready to counteract that business move.
