Gen 4 500hp dark horse V8

[Donmatteo]

Let me get this straight.

Gen 1 was a V8
Gen 2 came out as a V6 and people got all butt hurt because they didnt get a V8 to flex at stop lights and to take an offroad truck to the drag strip.
Gen 3 came out with a V6 and V8 option and people are still complaining and want another kinda V8 in the raptor for the gen4?

Almost. Just like 2016-2017, and for some- you know who you are - at least once a week every week advocating for a less torquey engine in the truck, not just any V8.

Ah. Thanks for the correction @smurfslayer.

Might as well throw in a 4 speed auto to keep things period correct.

Add in the dual clutch out of the 2012-16 Focus and this drivetrain is a guaranteed winner.

All we need need is a higher wattage stereo that plays real V8 sounds.

And spark plugs that shoot through the hood - that would be nostalgic...

I had one of those as a rental in Florida once…wow that transmission was a mess. I’m sure that thing was on its last legs.
