What were the HP numbers for a 4.6 and 5.0 cause wouldnt a stock 5.0 loose to a stock 4.6 because of it being newer technology and more horesepower outta the factory?? But i would still go with the 5.0 like everyone else i own one so why vote against it HAHA. Its like being a republican and voting for John Ferry haha. j/k guys have fun

i'd like to see a race like that, a bone stock 90lx vs a bone stock 03gt.... both manuals, both equal drivers.... i would like to say the 5 0 would take it, but those newer ones come with like 260hp and the 50's came with less than 225 to the rear

stock for stock the pi 4.6 would win but mod them equal then the 5.0 will come out on top and the 5.0 responds better to more mods than the 4.6 but a pre pi 96-98 stang would get its *** handed to it buy a 5.0 stock for stock

no 4.6 has the same torque as a 5.0, 5.0's put out the awsome low down torque, 4.6 dont have as much and rev higher to get the hp, 5.0's kicks 4.6's ***, just beacuse because I own a 5.0. LOL

94-95 (it was an option to get the 5.0) so if you got a 4.6 from back then haha that thing was a dog compared to the 5.0 of 87-93.

WTF! Where the **** did you hear that was an option? 94-95 never had 4.6's. I think you lowered my IQ [sm=smiley29.gif]

Where the hell do people get information like that?? 1996 was the first year of the Modular 4.6. There were NO options in 1994 or 1995 to run a 4.6. Why the hell would they do that? Ive never ever ever ever seen a 94 or 95 with a factory installed 4.6 motor. If you find one let me know. Come on man!
