Quick update we built about 80 2011 3.5 and 3.7 Test engines this week. Engines looks nicer than previous engines. (Induction manifold.)
A note of interest is the valve covers are plastic! ( See spy pics of 2011 Explorer has same engine)
I'm trying to confirm HP and torque numbers. I also need to verify if the engines are direct injection.
Anyone in the oakville are be ready to see some test vehicles running around soon.
I will post when the engines are shipped to Ford down the street.
I'm not sure when the are scheduled to build them.
