5.4l?

ok i was wondering what is the 5.4l in anyhow. i saw on a web site that a hint that people put this engine in later mustangs if so is that better then a 4.6? is the 5.4 shoc or dohc? this question might be stupid but can you put 4.6l aftermarket parts on a 5.4l? if not were can i get performance parts for the 5.4l. and who has does a 5.4l swap. sorry about all the questions. thanks for the help guys

I think the 5.4 is just a stroked version of the 4.6. So anything that'll fit on a 4.6 will fit on a 5.4. The 5.4 comes in trucks mainly, f-150s and up. Not sure if its SOHC or DOHC, but I'd imagine SOHC. Throw a set of DOHC heads on the 5.4, a good intake, cam, exhaust, and it should make some nice power.

so you can put cobra heas on it? if so thats awsome i might just do that will have to change the motor mounts?

You'll need a lot more than just motor mounts. The 5.4 block has a significantly taller deck height than the 4.6, so you need motor mounts, a new intake (or spacers to fit a 4.6 intake to a 5.4) new headers, probably some mods to the steering shaft, new motor mounts, probably a k-member too, and a cowl hood to clear it.

heck with the hood, I say bolt in a Lightning motor and let the blower stick out of the hood!

:iagree: :lol:

You can get the 5.4 as a sohc or dohc just like the 4.6. Vehicles like the navigator are the ones that usually get the dohc. The trucks can have a 24v 5.4(or 3v per cylender).
