Torqued_Up Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I checked out a few sites that have 6.4 forums now. TDS is the latest to add one and the crap these guys are saying is unreal. There is even bickering about who knows what and somebody dug up the Ford owns Cummins line! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/rofl.gif Someone even suggested that Ford considered the CAT C7 for the Superduty. I cant wait for Ford to finally unveil this thing and stop the rumors and guessing. I did see that Ford is supposed to show the 2008 at the Texas state fair in Sept??? Anyone confirm this???

Jim Warman Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 One thing you can be sure of on TDS.... someone is going to try and "long-cock" the other guy... Then again, my wifes hairdresser is related (about 126 times removed) to a guy that cut the lawn of a guy that owns a dog that is related to a dog that once chased Bill Fords cousins pharmacists mechanics brother in laws Honda and HE says that the 6.4 is out the window... there are no plans to resurrect the 7.3 and the competition is down to a converted Briggs and Stratton (no cooling system = no cavitation) or a redesigned 6.9 IDI that will run on cod liver oil and minty flavoured TUMS.

Keith Browning Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Ford officially put the new truck on the Ford Vehicles web site so I guess it rally has been officially announced. It ought to put an end to the ridiculous claims and speculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErickBaker Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Good info. Only thing that I saw that bugged me was it sounded like we're keeping that stupid fan shroud, or at least something like it. I don't know why but that thing really irritates me.

CERTIFIEDFORDTEC Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 do we really need 7 radiators and a fuel cooling system? /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/hitthefan.gif I sure hope they road test this one before they release it to the public!

blown99 Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I was told today that international will be building these engines for ford, (by the instructor teaching class). (international school) Prior to today I was told that ford dropped international due to the high warranty claims. What do you ford guys know?

mpatron Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 That would be nice!!!!( ice cold Bud ) I think we forgot about 2 coolers. How about the condensor and evaporator. The EGR and Oil coolers are on the engine. The other 6 coolers (including condenser) are on the "cooling system module". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
