This isnt a bash FCA/Ram/Cummins thread. In fact, I wish Ford sometimes used the 5.9 Cummins over the 6.0/6.4 PS but I digress.
I was doing some research on the 6.7 Power Stroke and found that the CG block is cast in Brazil, and the engine is assembled in Mexico before being sent to Kentucky for final assembly into the Super Duty.
Being curious to see where the main competition is made (Cummins 6.7) I was pleasantly surprised to hear that Cummins assembles their engines in Indiana. It was difficult at best to find where the block was cast.
Come to find out, it looks like the block is actually cast in CHINA. Is this true? Can anyone confirm this? If its true, I dont think I could buy one to be honest. That would be a big let down.
