the 5.4 was designed mainly for the trucks because it put out so much more torque.

just get a s/c

ok guys i have a question are u talking about 5.4 sohc or 5.4 dohc becuase there's a huge differance!!!!! the sohc puts out 280 and the dohc puts out 340 i believe, the money u will spend on the dohc will be more expensive then a s/c.....just trying to put the dohc into a mustang will be had enought, i had to hammer my bbk shorties to get them to fix i could only imagen if it was the dohc.......and the cheapest i found the dohc 5.4 was 3,600 at a salvage.
