What are these "lower RPMs" you speak of? All the raptor runs I've been a part of you spend most of your time 4,000-6,000 rpm, usually in 3rd gear, sometimes 4th

Exactly, since it has no sister engine, the 6.2L is not big or small blocked, but the 6.2L has wider bore spacing than any other ford gas engine (scaling up the engines so they all have the same displacement wouldn't change this either) and also has wider bore spacing and overall larger block...

I believe it would be considered a big block

The true displacement is 379 cubic inches, and I would prefer if we referred to it as that, but most people don't want to take the time to learn it's true displacement Proud owner of a Ford Raptor Boss 379

The reason race tires are not DOT approved is because the consumer base for such a high cost tire for daily use is so small they would never make up the costs of DOT approval with tire sales, most race tires are still made to meet or exceed DOT ratings

Cause the Chevy small block has been around since dinosaurs roamed the earth, and it hasn't changed a bit Ford likes to make new engines every couple years

I believe the stock pistons and rods are forged, the crank is cast, from what I've read it has 6 bolt mains (although I've never had mine apart to confirm) and biggest is making well over 800 horsepower to the stock crank (what I would've thought to be the engine's first major weak link)

Lol, yeah, I was referring to your truck interior

Noah removes and reinstalls his interior every night

How is a less than 1 mpg gain unbelievable? When it comes to mileage gains percentage is not as important as actual gains, when you gain 5-10 mpg from one modification on a gas engine that becomes unbelievable, whether your before mileage was 10 or 100, but a 1 mpg gain is insignificant and...

Show him some of the big build threads and the run threads, he just doesn't know what he's missing out on

Seriously wish I could've made it this year

That is how it could

No, you don't have to dump it after the cab, the end of my exhaust is right underneath the passenger seat facing towards the rear of the truck, I think if you replaced them with straight pipes that exited out from underneath the truck it wouldn't drone, but it sounds like any turndown exhaust...

A few of us have, more for the reason of not wanting to waste money on aftermarket exhaust only to find out it drones/sounds terrible/isn't as loud as we wanted it to be though, I personally love it, no drone, it can be silent when you need it to be if you are just barely into the throttle, and...

I have recently driven a vehicle with real drone, a raptor with the catback removed has no drone, period, my truck never makes the racket that piece of crap did

What are you gonna do next Noah?

I know the truck is taller, I was kidding, there's no reasonable way to say her height changed at all based on all the other differences in the pictures

I don't know if she looks any taller, she used to be a little taller than the side mirrors, now she's not

I should've mentioned the oil pump gears in the first post, the oil pump going alone doesn't cause the engine to fail, the metal that then flows through the engine does, and they're a common failure and easily precautioned against with pre-build replacement, beyond oil pump gears and bad tunes...

Yeah, I know about the oil pump gear failures, but that's not blowing up an engine in my opinion, blowing up an engine requires a major overhaul at the least to put the engine back into service, if not complete replacement

Has anyone ever blown up a stock internals and block 6.2? not including bad tunes

Lol, this is gonna be good You're just gonna have to deal with the talking shit, you're not gonna be unique in receiving it, everyone does on this forum, doesn't matter what you did or didn't do to your truck, and it only gets worse the more you hang around, but that's the fun of FRF

What are you going for a ride in rich?
