Take note of Brain mentioning the connecting rod big end is the same bearing as a coyote big end.....which also means the same as 4.6l, 5.4l, 6.8l

Brian claimed probable 900hp engine dyno naturally aspirated if purpose built for it. Thats insane!

I wonder what the bore and stroke limits are. Nothing cooler than a big block rattling a car apart from the inside lol

I do know port spacing is exactly the same as a 6.2l indicating crankshaft dimension similarity. I also know at my work their was buzz about a Ford 8liter intake. Indicating a possible taller deck 7.3l block .
If I remember correctly for one of the other YouTube videos Brian was talking about the max cubes on this thing at about 480 or so.. it's already got a long stroke as it is and a deep skirt so it's a lil limited as far as going to much longer on the stroke. It's also got siamese bores for better cooling but I can't remember what he said in the maximum bore for it... But hey the beef is in the parts.. it's made so beefy that it'll take a lot of hammering without a while lot of really expensive work done to it... I can't wait till people start throwing turbos at it like they did with the junkyard LS engines... We all know how that turned out and they aren't anywhere near as beefy a piece as these are out the gate!! That what had me excited about em!!

I think ford did this one right. Compared to the ls7 it's not bad at all. Identical in torque almost however lacks about 60 to 70 hp. Reason probably being this is a truck engine not a monster built for a corvette. So much room for improvement here vs the ls7 which pretty well maxes out the LSX block with already having to be sleeved.
Now ford needs to wake up and make something above the mustang and in between the Corvette. Like a baby gt or something. Independent suspension, light weight, pump the Godzilla to 500hp.

A little bit more info about this new up coming 6.8l pushrod thats been announced for the 2022 mustang.
Well its been a few more weeks since i made a statement about halting coyote oil pan production over in Lwarriors thread. I stated the product hasnt ran for a month and now 2weeks have gone by with still no production. Funny too cause a new machine was added on this line that welded in a different type of oil baffle instead of the normal windage tray. That machine has yet to be utilized.
Word at work is about getting ready for production of a new Ford manifold that will require a dedicated welding line and modifications of an existing line. The line mentioned is the 6.2l ford which physically is the same port spacing width and length. Most of these manifold lines, the manifolds are mounted in the machines like they would be mounted on the engine.
They also said removing the assembly machines for 7.3l godzilla due to the new modifications of the old line and that the original 7.2l machines are no longer useable due to demands. They claiming over 500,000 manifolds a year!!!! The existing machines are only capable of around 170,000 a year.
Again my speculation of this new manifold will be a redesigned 7.3l and a new 6.8l that are both dimensionally the same for an engine thats physical dimensions are also the same. Unlike what we've been use to from past engine makes like 302 and 351 or the 4.6l and 5.4l where the internal dimensions match the outside dimensions and the intake manifolds are different. I believe these motors will be the same size outside but the insides will make up the engine size and the intakes will fit regardless of engine size. Physically bolting on no matter the size.
Time will tell! Ill keep you guys posted!!

Another 7.3l marvel!
In this vid, the guy speaking summarizes alot of 7.3l advances we have already discussed here in this thread, videos, and such.
But his biggest talking point is a twin turbo 7.3l producing over 1100hp! Although he wasnt 100% positive of build details, one person in the comments mentions the engine was 100% stock.
