I am sure that Ford and International will kiss and make up and they will start making those engines again. If not hope Ford has a back up plan.

I heard the Titans can pull some weight.

Perhaps that new full sized Tundra.

So if Ford gets the powerstrokes from International, and the new Boss blocks are being cast in the same foundry as the powerstroke. Will this cause a shortage of Boss blocks?
