Again....my comparison was between the previous 4.6L 4-valve engines and the current 4.6L 3-valve engine.One thing tho- IF, IF the 3v design is so great, or equal- how come the Shelby GT500 is a 4v, and we also make a 3v 5.4 truck engine?
There's no need for the poor attitude, or the snide remarks. I’ll debate with you, but I’m not getting into a pissing match. Play nice, or not at all please. This thread just seemed to get back on track, there’s no need to ruin it with more nonsense.Inappropriate Remark :ZipIt:
You know what motor is more successful then the 2V, 3V, and 4V combined?????
the LSx?
oh man now the threads definitely getting locked
There is no one on here crazy enough to say that the Ford pushrod is better than the Ford modular engine.

****, i thought thats where you were going....
fine pushrod engines?
Anyone who says that ford did a good thing with the modular has had a little too much cool aid, they are great motors WITH BOOST, but really, how long has this platform been in production?? about 15 years and we are just getting a production 400 hp naturally aspirated motor? nobody else thinks this is a little *****ed up? am i alone here?
im keeping my head down...
last time i mentioned brandx on here i had a red dot on my forehead and a gangbanger showed up at my doorstep
I just think its interseting that everyone complains about the high compression of the 5.0 and how it may not accept boost...etc, etc. But isn't this what LS1's are? High compression engines, and with a few modifications can be made to haul total ass? Aren't we dealing with the same kind of thing here? Just my .02
i know what you mean, exact reason i dont update my build thread anymoreYou know who else loves DOHCams, honda guys.

That's kind of a twisted mind set don't you think? I mean, if we all followed that logic, what does that say for the 302 OHV that was in production for almost 40-years and never made 400hp (or even 300hp for that matter) in factory trim?
Meh, they did the same thing to "Old Yeller" when he lost his mind too.
