The reason I went with the 4.6 is because I really don't need the towing capacity of a 5.4. I never tow anything, and if I were to ever tow something it would most likely be fairly light, so the 4.6 wouldn't have a problem.
I know the MPG difference is very small, but that factored in a little bit.
Another reason is because my older brother is a die-hard mustang enthusiast. He's got a 65', 70' Boss, 89' LX fox body stroker (this is his baby), and a 06' 4.6 Roush clone. He knows a ton about the 4.6 mod engine, so it will defiantly help out if I ever need it

i love the 4.6... just wish someone would make a decent set of headers for the ****in thing...
btw. those gears in my sig., have NOT been installed yet(can't wait though)

That ain't sayin much - if that 07 wasn't tuned, I would have owned that race with a nothin special 5four two valve, -. Been there done that
Those trucks are seriously under tuned.
