Ford F-Series Super Duty brings the biggest tools

Autoblog already reported on Ford’s new in-house designed-and-built 6.7-liter diesel . The previous Power Stroke diesel was a cooperative effort between Ford and Navistar. While generally well regarded, the engine was not without its problems, including the fact that it didn’t particularly like biodiesel fuel.

The larger 6.7-liter engine is a clean-sheet, all-Ford design that produces 390 horsepower and 735 pound-feet of torque. The deep-skirted V8 block is made of compacted graphite iron, which Ford claims is about two times stronger than traditional cast iron, all the better to reliably handle that elephantine torque. Four-valve aluminum heads help shave 160 pounds off the engine’s total weight, but don’t look for cams in those heads. A single camshaft in the block actuates all 32 valves with just as many pushrods.

Bosch piezo injectors send fuel directly into the combustion chambers with up to 29,000 psi of force. The quick-acting injectors are capable of delivering up to five stratified charges (layered squirts of fuel) per combustion cycle. The high-pressure, direct injection system pays big benefits in terms of increased power and economy with reduced noise. In traditional diesels, the combustion event happened all at once, making plenty of noise. Stratified fuel injection lengthens the combustion event, making it quieter.

While not silent, the new Power Stroke is so quiet that you can stand at the rear of the truck and hold a conversation and not have to raise your voice. In the cab, the engine noise levels are so low that it’s hard to discern whether you’re driving a gas or diesel truck. The fact that you can’t smell any eau d’diesel makes the new engine and emissions package all the more impressive.

One of the most innovative features of the new Power Stroke engine is the path of the airflow through the engine. The air charge enters the heads on the outside of the V, with spent gasses exiting to the center of the valley. Waiting for those rapidly expanding gasses is a Honeywell turbocharger featuring two outboard compressor wheels that form a sandwich around the impeller.
