Is it still SPi?
I was wondering if my '07 still uses Split Port Induction?
I remember that my '99 had a cover over the throttle spring and cable that said 4.2l SPi. So my '99 definatly had it.
I am assuming it does, by the fact that it has an IMRC system.
There's nothing wrong with my truck... it's more of a curiosity thing.
Anyone know?

It's split port induction...
After reading a SAE article about it, I fully understand it.
Interesting stuff... so basically all v6 F150's from '97 to present have SPi.

Who cares when you get this.
Ford has reported that a smaller diesel engine will be an option for the F-150 in the near future, making it the only half-ton pickup in the U.S offering a diesel. Ford recently had said it's going to be a 4.4L V8 derived from the euro-built 3.6L diesel that is currently used in Land Rovers. It has an estimated power output of 330 hp (246 kW) and 515 ft·lbf (698 N·m) of torque.
