Does it say YAMAHA anywhere on our engines?

I havent seen it yet on a 3.4 . From what I understand the block is all Ford and based on the Duratec . Only the intake and heads are Yamaha desighns . someone will correct me if I am wrong .

From the factory this car does not have 'Yamaha' written anywhere on it. But that is easy to fix.

I prefer Ford myself. If I wanted my vehicle to say Yamaha, I'd by a crotch rocket!

My engine does.

Not to my Knowledge but almost all the engine parts bags say ''Japan" on them. Owner's manual may have a reference? (WAG)

AFAIK also, well with the exception of crazy man Tom, BTW Tom great sho in the parking lot of thunder hill - too bad about getting busted - was worth it.
Many parts you will see with stamping of "KOC" This is not a ford related but rather Yamaha related. If you give a Ford parts guy the KOC most will just have the bambi look.
I did find a few that could cross reference to ford part numbers. I emphasize a few.
*Wish I really didn't know that* :cry:

Interestingly, the 3.0L engine parts had the KOA casting code, and 3.2L parts had KOB. You should have been there for the hilarious conversation with the guy who insisted KOA meant "Kawasaki of America".
