Well I could say yes but no...I think its more along the intake manifold...f150s have it taller for low end torque and the weight as well takes some of the power...mustangs are lighter and cams
Are made for performance rather than low end torque too
Ya, the Effie intake is taller
and combined with the larger throttle body is designed for lower end torque (is what I was trying to say) as for the cams, on the PI heads (99+ Mustangs and 01+ F150s) the cams are the same (according to part #). There is still lots of debate that older non-PI heads have different cams.
Being that there is only a difference of 10hp between the 2 motors, the use of a tuner will even the playing field (at the crank). I agree that the weight difference will also make them perform different.
03-04 mustang 2v 4.6 have performance improved (pi) heads rather than just
The simple ported heads tht all other 4.6 come stock with. An ideal setup for a
4.6 2v f150 would be the head swap and intake aswell as headers cai electric fans
A custom tune and some gears in the diff...under drive pulleys and of course a pair of
Mild cams tht will open up those vavles...I got a 12.2 sec truck with tht setup and some
Tweeks here and there
I want deatails on your truck with the tweeks !! Full details. I am hoping and praying for a 14 sec truck
Hey Bob
After owning a 05 4.6L and driving one everyday of the week. I think your on the right track with your mod choices. Give me a shout If I can help.

I have a 99 4.6 2v...... Have 78mm bbk tb Cai. Bama tuned 5 speed 3.73 rears. Under drive pulleys electric fan..... Accel coil packs e3 plugs Edelbrock high flow fuel rails..... Is there basically anything else I can bolt on besides headers to gain a few more hp?? My next step I really wanna cam it out but not sure what lift and duration to look at. I wasn't a very rough idle and a strong mid-range pull...... Any ideas would be very helpful it's my first build. Thanks for ur time
cool i did not know they were so similar. i thought the 01-04 stangs were 3v. im thinkin im just gunna go with a good cat back setup, a k&n drop in filter, and a good programmer and leave it.... i know the exhaust manifolds look very restrictive, but i wont waste the labor and money on headers till i learn whats the most restrictive areas on the 4.6's......the intake, throttle body, cats, might be worse than the manifolds for all i know....
still eager to learn about these mod motors as ive only owned one for about 4 months now.....i do love that grumble its got, which is why im going exhaust first
Do you know its possible for me to do anything with my throttle body setup seeing that its a drive-by-wire system? Also are there any programing options for me? I've got a 09 f-150

I don't know, but you have an '09 with a 2V? That seems unlikely.

Yeah. That's what I've got. I'm highly certain seeing that I've changed the valve cover gasket in it. I'm new to Fords so I could be all kinds of wrong. Can you tell by looking at the Cams?
