thanks to joker we now can post pics in this forum--which i like alot-----


hondahuter was asking about how the cams are driven on the mod motors so here is a pic of a cobra motor with the timing chain covers off-----the sohc 2v motor is the same minus those extra sprockets at the top.....

 

if you look beneath all of those wires you can see some of the cam and cam mains---those drive the valves the cobra has four valves per cylinder so it need two cams per head to open them....the sohc is just like this but only one cam on top of each head and only two valves per cylinder......

 

badass pic thanks man I needed that to look at. Makes me wanna take my engine apart .

 

Are u sure like the bigger engines are not pushrods? Because their value covers dont have a place to fit the timing gear.

 

the dumbass left the plug on for what reason i know not----theyre not even goning anywhere?? so who knows maybe he wanted to show off his purple plugs???



and homdahunter---all modular motors 4.64.9-soon-5.0-soon-5.46.8-v-10 are all overhead cam---the 5.4s valve covers are probably taller and dont need that spot on them to clear the sprocket.

 

4.6 to 4.9 liter sounds nice is that a stroker kit.

 

no---it is supposed to be an engine option in the 2003 mustang
---you will be able to get it in a 4.6 or 4.9HO option
and the cobra will be a 5.0


SHM--sean hyland does make stroker kits for the 4.6---they are
4.8L or 5.0L or 5.2L----i want to get mine turned into a 5.0
just to mess with people---i can say i have a 5.0 then when
i pop the hood theyll think im stupid till i smoke them and
tell them its a bored out 4.6----HAHAHAHA
