So basically it is a prototype that doesn't even run. They didn't even finish the engine calibration or do any driving with the vehicle. He says mpg for both gas and diesel are "anticipated" which means they are guessing and have no actual data. I don't know how they expect to get any real horsepower, torque or efficiency numbers to back up their claims when it doesn't drive. It is not a dual fuel engine meaning you cannot switch from gas to diesel and vise versa. You buy the engine made to run on gas or the engine made to run on diesel. Naive investors wanted...

 

You would want more!

 

The GT500 made its presence. Ford released a official teaser video.
The Shelby GT500 Will Return in 2019 As a 700-Plus-HP Monster

 

I don't believe that article, I need to see a piece of paper that has been folded five times and scanned to the Internet before I will believe it.

 

Ok what does someone do with a 700 hp Mustang?

 

Let it sit in their garage.

 

It’s coming

 

Probably right......but what do you do with a 700hp superduty?!!!!

 

None of this makes that much sense. Why after Ford has invested so much in the ecoboost line, would they go and put a 7L v8 in a 1/2 ton? And since it's also supposed to go in the superduty you would think that it's going to be an iron block engine, which will add a lot of weight, and Ford is clearly very concerned about weight. Also the article above says it will coming out this year as a 2019 model, I would think we would of heard more about it by now. But who knows

 

[Speedt witch is a really credible source for sure.]

 

I don't think a Eco Boost will handle the duty cycle of a Super Duty and Fords medium duty F650/F750 trucks.

 

remember the 6.2L was in a F 150.... for one year. (2011)
if my memory is correct.

eco-boost and iron block.. different Markets..

Raptor would be a limited production specialty vehicle... and Big Money.. my opinion.
like the "C" Hellcat.

 

I don't think they'd put the ecoboost in the Super Duty, just couldn't believe they'd put a 7l in a 1/2 ton.

 

I think it will only be in the Raptor. Reason why RAM is flirting with putting the Hellcat engine in their truck that will compete with the Raptor.

 

So what's going to happen to the 6.2 then, because I can't believe they will replace it with the 7L after just 2 years of the new design. Replacing the v10 makes the most sense, but I wouldn't think they would put the replacement for the v10 in the Raptor.
