The 6.2 makes 400 hp and 400 foot pounds, it's going to be out in the raptor next winter. I haven't heard any numbers on the 7.0 yet, the V-10 replacement, but I expect they will be up there.

I think the Super Duty trucks will get the 6.2L. I heard the 7.0L is going to be a crate engine only. No one seems to have any idea when the V-10 will be replaced.

Yeah, the raptor will be the only F-150 to get the 6.2 as it's a replacement for the 5.4 in the super duty. I'm not sure about the 7.0, I first heard it was to be a race engine as roush was helping with development. However it started comming across the rumor mill that the 7.0 will actually be the V-10 replacement when it reaches production form. It makes sense, but time will tell. I know the 7.0 that roush was playing with made 700 hp on E-85, I don't believe the super duty needs quite that much.
