Yes America makes awesome trucks and until around the year 2005 I didn't care about trucks until I got a old Toyota 4 by 4 that truck was so useful to me especially a person who lived near Lake Ontario. But in the Spring and summer and fall I would take it out on the trails and because it wasn't very big I could go just about any place. Approach and departure angles were awesome so I could climb steep hills my gosh that Truck was great. When it had 252000 miles on a it was still running great until my mechanic set the timing wrong and destroy the engine. He took care of me and was fair but boy I missed that truck 6 cylinder engine 5 speed stick manual locking front hubs. Little beast. Now days I look at trucks even used With decent miles and even on my above average income I completely Choke from the insane prices.

Its meant to keep the oil pressure consistent without the use of a relief valve, reducing the power required to run the pump. Its variable displacement, I doubt they are adjusting the pressure in response to load. The pump will compensate for hot, thin oil and pump more volume to keep the pressure up. Edit, looked it up, and they are controlling the displacement of the pump using load. I hope they don't have issues with keeping the pump primed like the Ford engine.

With just direct injection how are they planning on taking care of deposits on the back of the intake valves?

How is the new Ford 7.3 a copy of the LS engines? Because it’s a pushrod? Ford has been making pushrod engines as long as GM. Ford said the main reason they went with pushrods is because it allows for a bigger displacement in a smaller package. It’s also a replacement for the V10 engine they’ve been making since the 90’s. Like the V10 it’s not a good engine for high performance but optimized for pulling, similar to a diesel. Interesting that the Ford engineer stated that one reason they went with port injection is because they know a lot of customers will be idling their trucks for long periods of time, especially in Alaska and extreme cold climates where it may run for days without being shut off.

I do work it pulling trailers with sometimes 4-6 ton loads, and it is my daily driver. The reason I would be happy with the big block and manual TXM is mine has proven to be very reliable to me and I am very happy with it. It matters how you drive them and take care of the mechanicals to get longevity, as well as being able to recognize when the abuse is too much for what you have. I might add that I have upgraded engine power with a programmer, Gibson exhaust, cold air intake, and throttle body spacer. This was all done shortly after I bought the truck.

Alot of technology and expensive parts to break. I just hope these are as good as the 6.0

How do you clean the valves of carbon? Do you really think the "perfect mixture" will not build up carbon?

True..Because of it's displacement and Not from any design/advancement. Chevy's 6.6L makes the most TQ/ displacement and the 6.4L Hemi makes the most HP/Displacement of the Big gas engines available in HD trucks.

Pretty sure they fell short on the power ratings 😔

If Ford went with a variable pressure oil pump would that fix their issues with their cam phasers?

I'm a GM guy thru and thru... But that Ford big block is just so much more appealing, so much so I have my eye on a F350 once the power numbers come out

@@PurpleHeartVR actually a lot. unless the DI system and engine is completely designed for idle (which I doubt since any non- stationary engine is designed for wide rpm loads) no heat is created to run the emission system efficiently, injectors and intake needs a lot of airflow to vaporize the fuel otherwise it will create more soot (diesel anyone) that's just few of the issues. DI engine operate very efficient and powerful under load but at idle they suck.

I agree. Direct injection on non turbo and turbo engine are great except for the build up on the back of the valves. Thats why Ford and Toyota have added port injection back to the direct injected motors. They also did that so they can use what's best in any situation. Port is good while under no load idling so you don't have to listen to the DI clicking away. He should have asked that question. They have talked about the different types of injection before and the pros and cons.

Nice cutaway view of the lifters that will fail.

So, with a tune, what's the optimal hp and torque that can be harvested from the aforementioned?

Why do these truck manufacturers keep fluctuating their engine sizes? Back in the 1980s, their 3/4- and 1-ton pickups relied on 350 cubic-inch (5.7-liter) and 454 cid (7.4-liter) iron gasoline V8s. Then GM added an 8.1-liter V-8 alongside the 7.4. Then GM eliminated the 8.1 and eventually replaced the 5.7 and 6.0 with a 6.2. Now, GM is replacing the 6.2 with a 6.6. And Ford is coming out with a new 7.3 after years of offering their 6.2 as the only gas V8. Are they just playing with engine sizes for marketing purposes?

Do you think engineers would have EGR in a vehicle if they weren't forced to have it? No! (I know there are other issues with the overall engine but that is definitely one of the main reasons)
