6.7 NOT powerful enough

Or atleast thats what Ford thinks when the 2nd production come around we could be talking 400 HP and 800 Ft lbs TQ.

This is what I found on Pickuptrucks.com

Sources: Ford's 6.7-L V-8 Power Stroke Diesel Could Make 800 Pounds-Feet of Torque - PickupTrucks.com News

This is nuts but I like it!

Ford is doing that cause GM will also do it. Ford wants to be on top of the diesel world and I don't see anyone stopping them.

The revampd D Max is pushing its limits to make what it does now 397 / 765. Ford said a while back they could go futher and looks like they are.

My guess is Ford left a lot of room for even higher HP/TQ. Should be interesting to watch.

Wow. I really hope this engine holds up like ford says it will. If they turn out to be as good as promised I might get one in 10 years or so.

400 HP 800 TQ. What a beast!

No, just the ones it own age. There is not any stock V10 that can touch the new 6.7.

I think everyone knows the proper thread to debate V10 vs PSD by now...

Back on topic... I think Ford learned from some of the early 6.0 issues and built in a lot of room from upping the HP/TQ and still be reliable. Like you said Bill time will tell but I have faith Ford got it right.

I have a lot more faith in this one becuase it was made by Ford, not Navistar/IH. The fact that it was tested in the same way that made the V10, 5.4 and 4.6 so tough means a lot. I am not going to buy a new truck, but if I was I would not worry about the 6.7 having any issues.

Fords not sure yet but it could just be a software update possibly more. So its possible you could take it to the dealer and they could fix it up to the 400/ 800 Beast. Which it already is a beast truck I guess beaster would be the right word haha.
