The 4.6L trucks have a better torque converter that stalls higher which gets the engine up into the sweet spot of the torque band faster. The 5.4L stalls too low and makes a burnout hard to do. Especially a 4x4 with 265/70/17's with 3.55 gears. I'll be going to 4.10's if I ever get the cashola to do so.
