If it's that Silver one Daz posted up then I think it's Ford's 5.5 V8 Supercharged, F150 Lightning Daz?

Anyway, on another note as I've been away what's happened with the CSL!?

Why didn't they put a new head on if covered by warranty ?

They're still investigating the fault...

It's a black one after all - it'll probably need a new engine as that's normally the way with the 'dark side'
