Yes, Ford vehicles equipped with timing chains include many of their V6 and V8 engines, such as the 3.5L EcoBoost, 5.0L Coyote, and 6.2L V8 engines. Most modern Ford engines typically use timing chains instead of belts, which require less maintenance. However, it's always advisable to check the specific model and engine year for confirmation, as some older models may still use timing belts. For the most accurate information, consult Ford's official documentation or a trusted automotive resource.
