Default The CGI 2.7EB Block....

I had read that my new 2.7EB had a CGI block and that it shared that technology with various other engines. I killed a little time this morning doing a little discovery on what CGI means to the 2.7. Very interesting "little" power plant. 18" long.

I also had a CGI block ... though in a bit bigger engine that used different fuel.

It is a great engine accomplishing with 2.7l what a NA engine does at just shy of twice the volume.
