Stock Horsepower on 4.6 S
I like this forumit's as fast as the name implies but saying I'm lost is a little harsh for a newcomer isn't it? Maybe a little unknowledgable would be a better way of saying it but lost I don't think so. I'm just trying to get info on my friends GT as he maybe trading it in for a Cobra soon and was just wondering the full horsepower on his 20044.6 SOHC V-8 which seems to be more than the 260 Ford say's it is.</P>
Also, I've been a Ford man my own life my dad and his brother are retired from there after many years working there in the Chicago area soFord blood runs in my veins and alsoget big discounts too when buying new Fords etc.</P>

That 275 horse's sounds about right because this baby burns rubberin second gear going through the gears doesanyone else here have a 4.6 SOHC that does this if so then maybe that's about right for the horsepower of 260 but to me 275 sound's even better for sure.</P>
Thanks all for the help</P>

Really. Let me be conservative. Lets say that with my boltons I am at 260 rwhp.....plus a 100 Shot (85 hp) at rearwheel, now do the math..345 WHP, and let me tell you I can really feel the boost.......<IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0"></P>
