Engine: Description and Operation

The 7.5L (460 CID) MFI V-8 engine has a cast iron cylinder block. The crankshaft is precision-cast, nodular iron alloy and has five main bearings. The pistons are hyper-eutectic cast aluminum alloy, tin-plated. Rocker arms are pedestal-mounted and the valve tappets are hydraulic. Large intake valves and exhaust valves with wear-resistant, hard, chrome-plated stems provide optimum breathing. A low-restriction air cleaner is used for maximum clean air intake.

The 7.5L (460 CID) MFI engine is optional for F-250, F-350 and standard in the F-Super Duty.
