Yes NPI 2V 6.8l. 275hp/410tq if memory serves me right.

The e-series were usually rated like 5 hp/5tq less due to intake, cooling and etc related issues.

2v engines did not have enough threads securing the plugs and they would blow out. Fixes were heli coil and time serts. Not sure on years but I believe I read they changed in 2003.

The 2005+ engines have two piece plugs and they are known for breaking during removal. Requires a special tool to remove.

Only some 2005 3v V10's had the two piece plugs and by '06 all were 1 piece. The one piece plugs are very easy to change, you can do all 10 in 90 minutes.

My 2007 E450 still had the two piece design as well as another E350 in our fleet.
