Some one please tell me if im getting this right...the 32V 4.6L in the MACH is the same engine used in the earlier cobras...i think they are the same, but i want to ask to be sure. Also, if this is true, then can i use the same mods for that type of cobra, on the MACH, thanks a bunch

I would believe the 5speed Mach's are, but the auto's aren't, they have different cranks, cams I think too, as well as a lower rev limiter

they are both dohc 4.6's, but they arent the same motor.

i see tons of parts for the cobra engines but never really much for the MAHCs, does this mean i have to look harder or can i use parts for the cobra?

The 32 valve castiron block/aluminum-head 4.6 DOHC is the same one use in the 390hp Cobra without a supercharger. (Motor Trend 12/02)

the mach has an alum block, the cobra has an iron. but all the parts are interchangeable.

There are differences. The Mach has a higher Compression Ratio than the Cobra. That's why you don't see very many Mach's with Superchargers. It's been done, but you don't see many quite yet. The cams in the Cobra are different too. More "blower friendly"

That's cool. [sm=smiley1.gif]

Thre was a big debate about that very subject on another board. I believe somebody was asking about putting an Eaton SC on a Mach.
