Absolutely - the specs I rattled off were from introduction in 2021 and not unfathomable that the transmission was revised or beefed up for use in the Maverick even though the output from the 2.0 EB hasn't changed.Also my owners manual says 280lbft
I mean take 3 horses tie em together and piss em off, see what happens.
As for the transmission, if you go back through the years and look at transmissions. They put weak parts in strong cases and strong parts in weak cases, and everything in between. They do it based on what is needed in that vehicle, at that time, with that engine. Just take a for C4 auto, stock any year is good to about 300hp or so, but change up some parts andhave it assembled per spec and its rated for 900hp! I suspect the transmission differs internally slightly from other models its used in and they just dont have the time to rate the capability of every iteration of the case.
Or maybe Ford realized after publication they needed to up the rating to pair it effectively with the 2.0EB.
I'm not worried. I'm running 93 and am likely to throw the Cobb 93 tune on it. You could have it paired to a 2.7 EB and it would do fine if driven properly and not hooning it all over the place.
