Re: For Cobra4Bro.........
Ford>Chevrolet
Point - 5.8L (351)
I'm actually really excited for the new 5.8, and I hope Ford starts putting it in the 2013/2014 f-150 without a super charger, or maybe with a super charger to bring back the lightning. I'm very curious as to the power numbers of the 5.8 naturally aspirated.
Lots of cool info here for the ford fanboys: LE Click
Also I'm not quite sure why, but I never liked the idea of shutting down half your cylinders to increase mpg. I just see the PCM going nuts and cutting power under WOT or just killing them all while you're trying to make a hair pin turn or something. Though most of us depend on fuel injected motors controlled by a PCM every day so I guess I'm just looking for flaws.

There will still be cam specs. The vvt doesn't change lift and duration, just changes when it occurs.
