I wouldn't mind a FPC, but a balance shaft is just extra weight. Delete that crap, I don't care if it buzzes a little at certain RPM. That's part of the charm in my opinion.How about a proper flat plane crank with a center balance shaft???
A lot of crate engines are for off road use only and don't meet emissions regulations, but I'm all for big ci.... isn't the ZZ572 over 720 HP?
Also there is a new 630 CI engine, not sure stats on that.
IMO 5.2 is basically the same as a 5.0. If you're going to add displacement, add at least 25% or something. 4% additional displacement works in marketing lingo, but it's not much of an effort when building a "halo" engine. I don't think it needs to be another FPC engine, but it definitely should be naturally aspirated.Real question is if ford offers a next gen 350 what motor y'all hoping for? Between the 5.2, 6.8, or7.3 If they could meet emissions requirements of course.....
The GT350 is history. If it comes back it will be electric. While this is good news, I have no faith Ford cares about what we think. This group does not fit what Ford wants anymoreReal question is if ford offers a next gen 350 what motor y'all hoping for?

Over 1,000hp NA on 93 octane 632 cid.... isn't the ZZ572 over 720 HP?

7.3 all day anyday. Alloy block of course.Real question is if ford offers a next gen 350 what motor y'all hoping for? Between the 5.2, 6.8, or7.3 If they could meet emissions requirements of course.....
I would be okay with SOHC heads.What would be sweet is if Ford puts dual overhead cam heads on the 7.3
But IMO not enough. It would be barely any more than the current Voodoo makes.I would be okay with SOHC heads.
Honda has gotten some respectable hp and torque per liter from their SOHC V6s and I kinda thought "Too bad Honda never copied and pasted any more cylinders onto that."
If Ford applied overhead cams and that kind of hp/L to a 7.3L block...
7.3L x 81 hp/L = a lot
