Nice...not bad. They are designed for the longitudinal, but since their crank fits in the transverse block these would work fine I'm fairly certain. The stroker one is what's used to achieve the 4.2L ecoboost stroker that is found in some of the built Raptors out there.

Wait . . . we can have a 4.2L EcoBoost in our Gen.4 SHOs by simply changing the crankshaft!?!? SIGN ME UP! What would you guys guess the labor cost would be? Has anyone here increased their displacement (by whatever means)?

Pretty sure it takes more than that...RMB and SuperSix (if they are still around) are currently doing this for the Raptors. There are supporting mods that need to happen...cams, etc (AFAIK)...which don't exist for our gen ecoboost.
