LS1's arereally closer to 5.6L than 5.7. 346 cubes.. so more like just one liter.

Longer intake runners = more TORQUE. (Just what the 4.6 needs too IMO.)

The intake is actually a somewhat "straightened" version of the existing one. The intake point has been moved to the front a'la earlier Cobras, and the dual TB setup from the Bullitt is used. Dual TB assemblies up to 52mm are available for that setup ALREADY!

Anybody notice the overspray on the crank pulleys and the auto slushbox behind it? Testbed? Hmmm...

This is sad, the LS1's thats hasn't been produced for almost 2 years is still kicking the *** of a mustang that dosn't even exist yet! IMO ford needs to get its act together its the closest thing to a muscle car America still has, and imports like the EVO and others are catching up fast.

its 5665 cc, so its closer to 5.7L...


BTW, anyone know if there is a reason Ford doesn't bump the displacement on the 4.6? to say 5.0??

my cat got stuck in the fan belt of my '67 camaro... took off like a bat out of hell and disapeared for about a week, but when he came back, he was all ***ed up. when he looks at you, you can notice that his neck is bent to the side... he isnt in pain or anything, he looks funny as hell though cuz sometimes when i pick him up he doesnt know which way is up or down and he just flattens out like if he's falling in every direction, lol. he's a G though... he still chills on the '67 like if it's all good, lol

I'm sure that somewhere in this story is something relevent to the 2005 Mustang GT's 3 valve 4.6 engine, or at least something that relates to something someone on this thread posted.

I just think that beyond dj haf, noone knows exactly where in his post that is.

I wondered the same thing. All I could figure is that he's running on a tangeant from JEDCamino's post on the first page. Something about a cat sleeping in that huge intake valley. I think a lot of us have had a cat vs. car experience of some sort and usually it's not a good outcome!
