4.6 sohc vs 4v dohc?

[crapstang]

Every ls I have heard sounds better. Idle, wot and cruising.

almost every lsx guy will tell you that the shitbox 4.6l 4v sounds better.

[uglydogo]

I don't care about a lsx motor. The way they sound,how fast they ar. If I wanted a lsx car I would bought on. I have had a f-body. "Junk". T-56 was nice. Thats the only thing. Damn dash pad crack two week after I got the car. It was a pain in the ass to work on. And that piece of shit 10 bolt rear end. So the mustang is a way better platform. IMO. And 4v sound way better. I'm not trying to have to have the fastest car just want something fun. Also I want every thing to work together not against each other. So the hell with lsx motor or swap.

I have a nice setup for sale, 03 heads and mach 1 short block (forged crank), marauder intake manifold, exhaust manifolds, timing cover, valve covers,

[crapstang]

I have 3 nice set ups for sale: 1 complete '99 cobra engine (teksid block). Complete from the oil pan to the plastic intake tube. 1 '99 cobra shortblock. 1 teksid shortblock w/ all forged internals (if you want specifics, pm), B-heads.

[Badass2000GT]

Get a coyote it's a 4v.

Having had both I can tell you pushrod motors are more friendly and fun to drive. With the 4.6 felt like it had not torque below 3 grand where as I can quarter throttle an Ls car way out Infront of everyone just going stop light to stop light in traffic

4.6 sounds alright, I just remember every single person having them with and off road x and sounding like garbage

Lol, wrong. With a proper intake and some bolt ons, that motor makes close to that NA.

Here is one with the boss intake and cams. Puts down 404hp. I have seen them put down in the upper 300's with just intake and exhaust.

[91CoupeMike]

Boss intake on a 5.4?

Explain?

[dee]

video on youtube says aussie boss intake which would be a 5.4 dohc.

4v sound Damn good. Ls motor sound alright. Yeah ls car are ahead of the game yayaya. I know. Been there dun that. I hated it. And my ss I had only had 54,xxx original miles. Nice car but I didn't like it.

Explain why pushrod is more friendly?

I would think the 4.6 would be being it's dohc. Cam lifting the valve right off the head

I think he means friendlier on the wallet.

Lol yeah I can see that. For 500 you have fully forged engine with a good set of heads lol.

Pushrod motors are a lot simpler to work on. Especially since you can actually work on them without dropping the k-mem for any little problem. I'm a modular guy, but a 302 or lsx engine is a lot easier to work on, despite the extra claptrap in the valley (well, not really, for an lsx).
