I have heard rumour that Ford in the good 'ol US of A, are talking about discontinuing the 5.4 litre motor, and are currently evaluating the possibility of making a 6 litre pushrod motor, for their range of light commercial, suv's and passenger car ranges.
Will the whole Modular range be axed ? If the 5.4 motor is discontinued, where will it leave Ford in Australia ? If it is true, the pushrod motor would be a lot cheaper to produce than the 3 valve and the quad cam, it would be easier to fit to cars, due to smaller heads. It certainly would be keeping with the trend that GM and Chrysler/Dodge have set. What are your thoughts ?
