At its launch, the medium-duty F-Series was offered with two gasoline V8 engines and two diesel V8 engines. A 370-cubic-inch (6.1 L), 180 hp (134 kW) V8 was standard, with an optional 429-cubic-inch (7.0 L) version; both were variants of the 460 V8 developed for commercial use. The 429 became standard for 1991.
The 430 was replaced by the 462 cu in (7.6 L; 7,565 cc) engine in 1966. Bore and stroke were entirely different at 4.38 and 3.83 inches (111.3 and 97.3 mm) and the 462 MEL engine produced 340 hp (254 kW) and as much as 485 lb⋅ft (658 N⋅m) of torque. This engine was fitted with hydraulic lifters and a four-barrel Carter AFB carburetor.
