Ford changed the plug design in November of 2007 on the modular engines. That engine is not likely to have plug wires when its released, my guess.

i see ford is trying to plan for the future with the 6.2, releasing it with only 2 valves, making it easy to up the power/efficiency as the competition tries to out do them. Wish they would go all out early on though, really blow the rest of the market out of the water.

Its pretty much how the history of engines have been. 352, 360, 390, 410, 427 and 428 FE big block V8s. 4.6 then 5.4 modular V8s. 429 then 460 big block V8s. 260, 289, 302 small block V8.

The 6.2 is a step in the right direction if power is your concern... not mileage!

Sorry but that thing is hidious! It may have power and be fast etc, but its ugly.

I'm not a big fan of the new body style trucks, but the Roush Nightmare does look pretty cool!

What about a street muscle truck since they discontinued the Lightning. I hope they bring back a 3rd Gen "L".
