i believe that. my dads buddy has one, tuned, lifted, intake, header back exhaust. that thing pulls pretty good for a truck. badass trucks if you can fix em up a bit.

I would LOVE to see a built 5.4 honestly - custom grind it, new cam's and all the insides - dump 10 grand into the engine and see where it could put ya. I wonder what woudl happen if you did somethign as simple as changed the intake/exhaust/headers and added some new injectors with a slightly higher # squirt, then did some tunes on that, figure you coudl get at least a decent chunk of power out of it.

Wow maybe the regular cabs 4.6 are cheap. I couldn't get a 09 screw 5.4 for under 33 when I was looking.

one of the fastest daily driven mustangs around here has a 5.4 out of an f-150 in it...not sure about all of the specs but its bad

/end hack

are you sure its out of an f150? its pretty common to swap in the 5.4L DOHC motor in a mustang, (since they had them in 2000 for a short period of time)

btw the DOHC was never in a F150, only the navigator, mustang, and the GT.

I am going to put as much $$$ as I can into my 5.4L before it goes into the ranger. Hopefully that will get me somewhere. LOL
