ST 4.6L vs Mustang GT 4.6L

[Chris Kulbaba]

How does the 07+ v8 Engine Differ from a Mustang GT 4.6L engine?

 

[Bill Barber]

8 H.p and 20 lbs Tq, both engines are romeos and virtually Identical, the tunes are diff between the GT and the trac.

 

[Chris Kulbaba]

So you can get identical performance for each? And all aftermarket parts that would fit on the Mustang should fit on the ST (space provided)?

Intake is different, some electronics, some accessories....



Most other stuff will work..

Todd, The 07+ TB's you sell, does it improve the throttle response noticably? I plan to have the intake and exhaust next week, and I am going to order the SCT Livewire from Torrie I think. Either that or the X3.

 

[Chris Kulbaba]

The ST is a 3 Valve

I have a Gen 1 4.6 and could have sworn that is what I heard, but if I am crazy please let me know because that would make me happy to know...

I hope you are not talking about a Sport Trac. There was never a Gen 1 4.6L ST.

Ordered my Livewire from Torrie last night... Cant fricken wait! Got the Muffler today, and just waiting for the black tube K&N intake to come in, sometime next week.



Im so excited I just cant hide it!

[Chris Kulbaba]

I chose it cause its more expensive so it must be better



Uhmmm... So all of those things that are different can be changed to be identical to the mustang? Excluding the fan I suppose.

Hey, I've got both 07's, an ST Ltd and a GT/CS. Guess I can switch motors .... then I'll have two vehicles that are ???:wacko:

One major difference is that the truck engine uses an iron block while the Stang's block is alloy. Might not affect bolt-ons but it certainly affects the weight of the vehicle.
