Ford develops new clean diesel engine for chassis cabs

Ford has just announced it will offer a new clean diesel engine with the F-550 chassis cab lineup. This 6.4-liter Power Stroke turbodiesel is quieter, more powerful and capable of towing heavier loads. Output amounts to 350 horsepower at 3,000 rpm and a whopping 650 foot-pounds of torque starting at 2,000 rpm. Also, a special particle filter helps reduce emissions by 97 percent compared to the 6.0-liter engine.
