Overhead valve also = pushrod. That's another way of saying it. Are you sure you know anything about cars?Quote:

It's all about simple geometric stress factors. the more spherical the combustion chamber is, the better it withstands the increased preasures.
I guess that because I have a V6 then that I don't know what the hell I'm talking about, so I'll leave it alone. You almighty gods of the V8 win.
i'm not here to argue anything...but to say a 3.8 is a better all around motor than the 4.6 is kinda ludacris. both motors suck balls compared to other auto makers, plain and simple...4.6's make no torque and could be more efficient in terms of HP, and the 3.8...well, it makes no torque and could also be more efficient in terms of HP. i mean, cmon, nissans VQ motor puts out 287hp/274tq at 3.5L...you both have shitty motors
I have figured it out... you V8 guys (not all, but a few) obviously have small CACKS... otherwise you wouldnt be so defensive of your displacement. People like you and KANE are nothing better than bullies who in real life, prolly get the shit kicked out of them on the regular, so you have to come here for a self esteme boost. LOOK AT ME IM BIG BAD INTERNET JOE FRIDAY! wooo fuckin' hoooo! who gives a FUCK which is better? Just fucking drop it... if you had stayed your stupid ass out of my guestbook with this bullshit which you know nothing about, this arguement would not be happening... you are just pissed cause you look STUPID for not knowing JACK SHIT... Have a good day :beerchug:Quote:

At least now you understand you don't know what the hell you're talking about, life is much more fun when you aren't living in denial
umm, sound...yes, ease of modication, NO, technology NOQuote:

now, no technology is involved in any of ford's cars. you think because the mod motor runs an ODBII makes it a technological marvel? its the most basic engine management system available to the auto market.
yeah thats it.. and you look like a jackass for driving that monstrousity you call a mustang around too.. you should paint some more interior panels in your free time. And if you think for some reason my "Cawk" size is some how realted to the right choice I made of selecting a V8 then you dont know what the hell your talking about.

Did I ever say that? When did I insinuate that I wanted to do such a thing, I don't beat women upQuote:

Yeah, but saying that .0167 liter displacement per cylender is going to make the 3.8 a beast... :ugh2:Quote:

Obviously there had to be some technological and mechanical advantage or else why wouldn't they keep cranking out 5.0's?Quote:

you guys are stupid for arguing about something like this...you both should be stripped of your mod privileges
I didn't say that is would become a beast. I'm saying that it will become a more well rounded engine that has more to it.Quote:

ease of modification will ALWAYS point to a more primitive motor like the 302.Quote:

I'm just saying a 4.6 is easier to mod than a 3.8
WOW. All I have to say is your mother should have been PRO-CHOICE.Quote:

Yeah, your saying in your sig is you carry a badge, I certainly hope you are not a Peace Officer.
You Sir are Dumb da Dumb Dumb
wow, your pretty clever... oh well when I get in my car I hear american Rumbler, when you start yours you hear the par of a mini van.Quote:
