Her name is 'Khaleesi'
Got the call for this demo model.

Thrilled.

Immediate observation.

This 7.3L V8 needs to be opened up. Way too down-tuned. A bit muffled so to speak.
My 95 460 cu in with that BANKS Kit was every bit as powerful or more.  Granted different chassis, lengths,  and weight.

I'm wondering if a BANKS system would open this motor up some.  She's wanting to.

Thanks for the photos, gives me a feel what to expect next year, interior wise.

To be fair, 460 cu in translates to 7.54L.   Yes, displacement isn’t directly comparable, but your old engine was larger AND was enhanced.   Unless I am misreading the 7.3L V8 on the BANKS website, doesn’t look like there’s much for that new engine yet.

That 460 was the real "Godzilla".

Congratuation on the surprise.
The E450 gets the detuned 7.3, the pickups get the more powerful version, you might want to see what the differences are.

That is a really, really nice rig. Congratulations!! Our mid bath is a 94 and it is amazing the similarities between the two.

Nice rig,

Congratulations! We had stopped by the factory to buy a cutting board for our used rig. We asked if the one on the floor was available, but Todd said it was taken, but we could put our name on the waitlist. Well, as it turned out those on the list dropped off and we got the call! That was an expensive cutting board.
