How much more power is a 2 V 5.4 have over 2V 4.6?

How do these motors compare? I have a 4.6 but it is a little weak for pulling and it is a 2 valve, I here the newer 3 valve are more powerful but can have more issues?

I have used a 3 valve 5.4 and was impressed how does the 2 valve compare?

Thanks.

Roughly 25hp if comparing the same year, torque is the bigger factor more like 50+ as is the power band.

Thanks, so basically the 5.4 will stomp it for pulling? I am sure they eat more gas.

How does your 97 compare to the 09?
