Turbochargers quiet down all engines. You've probably been next to a turbocharged LSx and not even known it. Besides, an engine that sounds like 400Hp and makes 900Hp is a better sleeper any day!

 

Ok I can agree with you there.

Here is some info............... I think I read that you just hook up a positive and negative wire and it's self contained.

EcoBoost Crate Engines Coming! | Ford news Blog & Discussion at Mustang Monthly Magazine

 

I was wondering this as well. (I would like to put one into a ford ranger) so I was looking around for the same information and I came across a site called gotengines.com and got a quote and the apparently have the 2011 Ford F150 3.5l Ecoboost priced for $4,595 and states that it is in stock. That's just the engine though.

 

I also seen that the 3.5l Ecoboost is a transverse engine where as the Ranger is built for a longitudinal engine. How would one go about fabrication in order to make that fit? I am not very mechanicaly inclined at the moment but am about to attend school for automotive, so sorry if I post newbie questions.

 

They come in the F150's now also................

 

Livernoise !

 

3.5L ecoboost in my F150 is longways...

 

U need to get some truck magazines and orientate yourself. OMG ! Truck's is about the ladies !

 

I've looked at some truck magazines and the only thing I learned is some women have big ***** and others have big butts. Saw something that resembled a truck now and then, and yet it wasn't really a truck.

Peterson's 4 Wheel and Off Road is the only truck magazine I get any more. It's the only one that is clean enough to let a 6 year old read and see.

 

I ain't seen one and I guess I should've stated that it was based on what I seen other posters said.

 

An entire EcoBoost setup to include transmission, intercooler and ECU right here:

I'm thinking either pinto/ranger

 

Hmm...I wonder where that motor was stolen from? $6,500 for a newer ecoboost motor and transmission???
