GEN 2 Leaked info on motor? 2017 Raptor 450hp/510lb.-ft of torque

[paulhaskew]

Just FYI for any of the people using my screen shot pictures showing the Raptor HP and TQ.. I'm a Ford salesman and pulled this info from our dealer source from FORD for product information. This is NOT sketchy info.

Nor is it "leaked". Thank you for sharing, I'm excited!

Well I guess those phone calls to Ford from the media caused some stir. They pulled the HP and TQ # from that document page.

Interesting reaction to information being provided.

Hmm, I'm not sure that is a good thing? Seems an odd counter-move to me...

.. Unless Hillary Clinton is working with Ford PR.

I would guess that Ford has something planned to officially announce the motor specs and didn't want it to come out this way. There is a ton of hype and expectation for the motor in this truck that I would have expected a formal sort of release of it.

The main Raptor page still just said that the motor would have more power than the previous 6.2. The statement we've seen posted everywhere. But as you went down the page of info where it mentioned the Gen 2 3.5 you could click on that. The page that link took me to was the page with the motor #'s.

Well those pictures are forever on the internet so they dropped the ball on that one. Id be shocked if the numbers actually changed.

I wonder if those numbers of 450hp are with premium fuel. As the Gen1 was 411hp but actually 401hp with Regular 87.

I was just wondering that myself. Beat me to it!
