Thought it was a Cammer but nope, a radically designed engine for sure.

“We recently put in a smaller camshaft and changed the carbs to switch it over to E85,” he said. With these changes, the engine put down 1,319.4 horsepower and 1,054.4 lb-ft of torque on the BKRE dyno. In a previous configuration, it put out a bit more power but didn’t have the friendliest street manners.

Street manners are all the more important once you cross that little 1000 HP line.   ;D

How do they call it a Ford ?!!! Well I asked the manufacturer, this very question. I was told by the rep, "well no parts from a Chevy, Ford, or Chrysler actually fit these engines, so you can call it whatever you want".  A custom made "whatchamacallit" for your ride.
