Sure.WOw these are cool. Anything for the Ecoboost?
But there are two things to check.
Up till today, the first was the factory drain thread size.
Second is whether any indentations or ribs on the eco oil pan will interfere with a valve since valves are wider than the drain plug, Femcos with a larger diameter circle, and Fumotos with an operating lever tower jutting out from the valve.
On the Levittown and several other Ford dealer sites I couldn't find the part number by drilling down thru year/model/engine parts/etc because for one model year they don't even list Ecoboost and for the other year the engine part page doesn't show a part number for the drain plug. But I was able to find it at LakeLand Ford; apparently they have a more up to date database. Of course Ford just gives a part number and no thread size BUT the part number is the same part number as the V8 and V6 drain plug and I know that the V8 is M12x1.75 threads because that's the threads on the valve I just installed.
But until someone who has actually installed one on an Eco, I don't know how to be sure it will fit around obstacles cast or cut into the pan. Until someone posts they did that, I'd order from Femco by phone and get an promise they will refund and pay to return it if it won't clear the topology of the pan.
