- Ford Motor Company's decision to produce a new V-8 engine for introduction in the 1968 model year was influenced by the results of advanced design work began in 1964. The new engine design was conceived and developed to attain the prerequisites of luxury car applications, coupled with a primary objective of minimum unburned hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide emissions. This primary objective led to an engine design oriented around the induction, combustion and exhaust processes.
