4.5 PSD the 6.0's little brother

[Dale_Lakin]

Got a new update for parts catalog today and it has the 4.5 that is going to be used in the new LCF chassis listed with some pictures thought some of you might enjoy seeing them.

Here is the twin turbo and the block as you can see for the most part it is a 6.0 with 2 cylinders lopped off.

IIRC it stands for "Low Cab Forward" or something like that. Pretty much a cabover type vehicle comes to mind...

Is the 4.5 only slated for use in the new cabover truck or could something like that be implimented in the Expedition/F-Series in the future barring emissions haggling?

Thanks for the pictures Dale

It was slated to be in the 07 or 08 F150 but has been scrapped no real reasoning as to why. I have my opinions but they are just that opinions. And yes it is a Twin Turbo.
