Pretty decent MPG results from the TFL using a 7.3l with 4.30 rear end on that 800 mile trip. Good enough for me.

The last big block I used was the GM 8.1l V8, so I can imagine it's not hard to beat, lol.

Agreed. Their high altitude MPG might be comparable to my low elevation and heavy foot. I need more truck and would prefer a stronger gasser than what I got. It might not have the MPG of some other vehicles but it should do well for everything else.

Lots of information there! Bore spacing is the same as the 6.2L at 115 mm (still much greater than any Mod), deck height is 9.65". Being a relatively small block it probably can't grow too much more, but at 7.3L there is plenty of displacement. I wonder how much it weighs.....

Still waiting to see some numbers for the 6.2 with 10 speed.

Anybody have one yet?

@Louisville Joe I don't remember the exact number but the new 7.3 and 10 speed is only like 80-90 lbs heavier than the 6.2 and 6 speed. They are using the same springs on both engine setups.

There's some decent info in the new videos, although most were underwhelming. Some disinformation too, even from the Ford techs. One video with Mr Truck they said they didn't lower F450s or F350 4x4. And then in another they said they lowered F250s and F350s. And that one tech that rambled about chips was full of it. If they could get more MPG and power they would. Um ok, so in a few years it won't get a boost in numbers? And that soft fly by wire pedal is better how? Another tech from an older video said they were conservative with the new motor so the can play it safe and then reassess where to go from there after it's proven.

Interesting, and I will bet a lot of that slight extra weight is the 10 speed transmission.

I thought the new 10spd was only 4 pounds heavier than the 6spd?

4 lbs extra is my recollection as well based on all the videos out there....
