 Articles - Straight engine
Straight-6 engines can still be found in passenger vehicles like the Australian Ford Falcon, some entry-level Lexus models, the Toyota Landcruiser, and BMW 6-cylinder models.
Usually found in 4 and 6 cylinder configurations, the straight engine (often designed as inline engine) is an internal-combustion engine with all cylinders aligned in one row, with no or only minimal offset.
The straight-4 is by far the most common 4 cylinder configuration, whereas the straight-6 has largely given way to the V6, which although not as naturally smooth-running is smaller in both length and height and easier to fit into the engine bay of smaller modern cars.

 10 Best Engines
Ford's all-new Power Stroke 6L turbodiesel V-8 wins a 2003 Ward's 10 Best Engines award not because it's a diesel accessible to everyone, but because it's the best current example of how good a diesel can be when the best of current diesel technologies converge.

 teirney.NET / Honda Civic SiR / Ford XF Throttle Body Swap
It was harder to find a 68mm throttle body, and the approximate 27% increase in air flow sounded more realistic for the 1600cc engine than the massive 40% you would get with a 68mm TB.
I did some more research locally and found out that a Ford XF throttle body can be obtained with either a 65mm or 68mm throttle plate.
The Ford XF throttle body (on the left) is visually much much larger than the stock Honda one.

This FIPK intake is engineered to replace the factory air box of your 2003-up Ford F-250, F-350, or Excursion (6.0-liter engine only).
The fluid, dynamic design also smoothes out and straightens the airflow — air moving in a straight line is more effective than the turbulent air typically sent by factory systems.
The washable, reusable filter element used in this FIPK allows for the virtually unrestricted flow of more (and cooler) air to your engine.
