2017 Ford F-150 Raptor Will Make 450 HP. Unless youâve been living under a rock for the past month, youâre probably well aware of the all-new 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor which will no longer be offered with the much loved 6.2-liter V-8 that pumped out 411hp and 434 lb-ft of torque.
And all along the way, Ford has thumbed its nose at the Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra, stating how its EcoBoost V6 gets V8 performance and V6 fuel economy. GM, however, is hitting back today with the announcement that its new 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 engines manages to produce 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque. While the horsepower number compares favorably with the EcoBoost V6 in the F-150, it's down quite a bit in torque.
