So, how long have you been an engineer at Ford in the SuperDuty division or a Service Manager/Mechanic at a Ford Dealership?
Never claimed to be either. Just personally checked every part number of the SRW 350 vs. the 250 and found them to be the same. I also corresponded with the engineers from Ford when they took the time to be on the FTE forums last year. Now, what research have you done that leads you to believe that I'm incorrect? Oh, nothing? Figured...
The identical part numbers on the 350/250 has been told to me to be an "internet myth" by both service managers at two local Ford dealerships at a social function during the Fall. An engineer for the Eco Boost who frequents another car forum also relayed info supposedly from another Ford engineer stating that is the case too. Also, relayed to me by the Service Manager is the 4" blocks need to be ordered via VIN. I do not know if that is a nationwide policy or just regional. And as stated by both the engineer and service managers, is the "sticker is the sticker"
