Whats the over/under on the EB #s?
So whats the over/under on the EB's numbers re where you'll be happy? I understand we'll find out this Saturday if you guys report from the ride & drive, otherwise we'll know Monday.
Most recent speculation suggests 390/410.
I'll start it off, if its 390/410+ on reg fuel I'll be happy. (thats more than GM 6.2L on reg fuel, & the semi-hemi)
I'd prefer min 405 and 425, but they didn't ask me.

So, the info is out. The official numbers are 365/420.....
From Ford: Up to 90 percent of the EcoBoost truck engine’s peak torque is available from 1,700 rpm to 5,000 rpm. A typical comparable V8 competitor reaches peak torque at higher engine speeds – around 4,000 rpm – and holds it for a much smaller range.
That means it'll make 375+ tq from 1,700 rpm!

What we need are some dyno graphs of each engine to lay over each other. Darn trucks are not getting any lighter thats for sure.

According to www.drivef150.com, they'll have a dyno at the facility. I've got my fingers crossed that they'll let us take pictures. It's not like any of this is a secret at this point.
