Ford’s New Godzilla 7.3L Engine Is Getting Blown By ProCharger
When Ford announced its return to pushrods with the new 7.3-liter truck engine dubbed “Godzilla,” the Blue Oval faithful were eager to see what would be done with the new beast on the performance side. Alas, the months stretched on between announcement and the new engine’s first appearance in the wild.
Then, as soon as the clock struck midnight on New Year’s Eve, the ball dropped and all of a sudden the engine went from hushed mentions to right at the forefront of the aftermarket. The aftermarket’s interest in the new Ford platform was confirmed with some conversations both on and off the record at a recent trade conference, and then with this announcement from ProCharger.
In addition to developing a kit for the engine as it comes from the factory (within the frame rails of an F250), ProCharger publicly announced that they are prototyping a system with bracketry that will fit inside the engine bay of a Fox-body Mustang. So not only are they working on a kit to work with the inevitable engine swaps, but are also making sure there are features available for both street and race applications.
