It sounds like a race engine....115-120 + hp/ l v8..without forced induction...this engine must be spinning in some high rpms.A friend of a friend recently visited the dyno room at Mahle Industries (was Sealed Power, I believe). According to this guy, they are currently testing a new Ford engine nicknamed "Voodoo" that is a tad over 5 liters in size. The claim made by the folks involved in the testing is that it produces over 600 hp WITHOUT turbo or supercharging. Just wondering if anyone knows if there is such an engine under development... and if so, what application?
Agreed. I don't see any engine that size producing that kind of power for street use without some form of forced induction. Its almost hard to conceive of that kind of power even for a racing engine without forced induction. Sounds like a unicorn to me.It sounds like a race engine....115-120 + hp/ l v8..without forced induction...this engine must be spinning in some high rpms.
But will it be racing engine meant for track use only or? I've read rumors about smaller v8 coming from ford...any truth in that?Ford has lofty goals for a Boss like V8 coming in less than 2 years.
It will spin far past current 5.0L, and will be limited in production volume.
That's all you get for now.
From what I understand the "smaller" V8 will go to Lincoln.But will it be racing engine meant for track use only or? I've read rumors about smaller v8 coming from ford...any truth in that?
Dude...you're a meaner tease than my freshman-year girlfriend...!Ford has lofty goals for a Boss like V8 coming in less than 2 years.

interesting that the HP-per-liter is between nat.asp. and EB2It sounds like a race engine....115-120 + hp/ l v8..without forced induction...this engine must be spinning in some high rpms.
You mean that engine could be camless? I doubt it ..it doesn't have to go camless to achieve that kind of hp/l. There are engines that can achieve that kind of Hp/l in n.a form. Ferrari 4.5l V8 from italia 458 achieve 124 hp/l..their v12 from LaFerrari is over 125 hp/l... Problem is this engines cost a fortune, same as servicing them.interesting that the HP-per-liter is between nat.asp. and EB2

something suddenly makes me wonder if it could use electric-valve-actuation??
...along with every other non-boost trick in the book
You mean camless. No... in Multiar engines you still use camshafts for operating valves. Maybe not directly but there is still camshaft. In camlees engine there is not camshafts in heads (or block). You can use electrohydraulic, electromechanical,pneumatical system for operating valves.Is the technology similar to the Fiat's Multiair engines?
Didn't they trademark Black Edition or something like that? Maybe it could turn out to be a Lincoln performance badge after all.a v8 for lincoln? or maybe something like a AMG version? :angel
Actually, it's called Black Label.Didn't they trademark Black Edition or something like that? Maybe it could turn out to be a Lincoln performance badge after all.
Okay. Well that sounds anything but sporty.Actually, it's called Black Label.
Yeah, I'm not sure what "Black Label" means. It could be anything. Hopefully, we'll find out pretty soon.Okay. Well that sounds anything but sporty.
