Initially replacing the 401 Super Duty V8, the 7.0L replaced the 477 and 534 Super Duty engines for 1982. The engine was reintroduced as a metric-displacement 7.0L "Lima" V. Replaced by the 460 in Ford and Lincoln-Mercury cars, it was available in medium-duty Ford trucks only after the 1973 model year. Introduced in the 1968 Ford Thunderbird, the engine saw use across Ford and Mercury full-size and intermediate product lines.

Īfter 1991 production, the 370 was discontinued, with the 460 replacing it in all truck applications. In 1979, the engine was rebranded as a metric-displacement 6.1L V8. Sharing its 3.59-inch stroke with the 429, the 370 was designed with a downsized 4.05-inch bore (shared with its predecessor and the 390 V8). The smallest-displacement engine of the 385 engine family, the 370 was introduced in 1977, replacing the 361 cu in (5.9 L) 360 Truck (FT) V8. To reduce weight over their predecessors, the 385 engines utilized thinwall casting methods and a skirtless block. The engine was produced in 370 (6.1 L), 429 (7.0 L), and 460 cubic-inch (7.5 L) displacements. The 385/Lima engine family derives its name from the 3.85-inch (98 mm) crankshaft stroke of the 460 cubic-inch V8. In 1997, Ford introduced the overhead-cam Triton V10, which replaced the Lima V8 engine family after the 1998 model year the next overhead-valve large-block V8 produced by Ford is the 7.3L "Godzilla" V8 introduced for 2020. Following its shift to truck use, the Lima engines were joined by multiple diesel-powered engines. After 1978, the engines were phased out of Ford cars as its full-size cars underwent downsizing (intermediates last used the engines in 1976). Produced in Lima, Ohio ( Lima Engine), the engine family was the final big-block V8 designed and produced by Ford during the 20th century. In trucks, the engine family was used in full-size trucks and vans, along with medium and heavy-duty trucks. In cars, the engines saw use by all three Ford divisions in full-size cars, intermediates, personal luxury cars, and muscle cars. The Lima engines were used across multiple applications in North America. Produced from 1968 to 1998, the Lima engines replaced the MEL engine entirely, along with multiple engines of the medium-block FE engine family in truck applications, the engines succeeded the much larger Super Duty family. #FORD ENGINE CODES PO760 SERIES#
