>1. what if anything pos. neg about v-6 engines
Personally I’d go for the 4.7 over the V-6, Not too much more in intitial
cost and the added power is well worth it.
>2. what are others getting mpg with these engines vs. the new 4.7
I don’t know what sixers get, but my 4.7 averages 17/18 MPG on the highway
(I’ve had peak averages around 22, right wind conditions etc…) and about
15/16 in the city.
>4. break-in recommendations
Oil change at 500, 1000, and 3000 miles and every 3000 after that. No
hard acceleration in the first 1000 or so, no WOT, basically take it easy.
I never took mine about 2500 RPM until I hit 1000 miles.

Haven’t had any problems with mine in 6 months. Actually quite impressed
with it! (the infinity sound)
thanks,
Tom
