4.6 Block description?
Is it a 90* block? I ask because I want to know why the 4.6 looks so wide.

Yeah it's a 90* V8. Really not that wide, nor tall, when compared to other engines of similar class.

Yea it's the heads, I looked at more pictures of other engines and it's actually not that much of a difference compared to other SOHV and DOHV V8's out there.
