Over All Is The 4.6 Aviator Engine Better Than A 4.6 cobra

[CobraAviator]

I Have A 4.6 Cobra Swap In My 2004 Aviator But From What ive Been Hearing Is That The Stock 4.6 Aviator engine Is Stronger. What Do You Guys Think? 4.6 Aviator Engine Or A 4.6 Cobra Engine

Im not real sure on Aviator. But my buddy has an Explorer with the 4.6 and recently blew a head. He bought one out of a mustang. Got to reading and the explorer block was better. Its all aluminum vs the iron in the mustang. And i believe made a lil more tq for pulling.

4.6 L engines

There are many versions and HP ratings of the 4.6 engine. The Aviator has the 4 valve DOHC version at 302 HP Mustangs had 2 valve and 3 valve SOHC, as well as the 4 valve DOHC engines. HP ranged from 215 to 390. The Explorer had 2 and 3 valve SOHC engines from 239 to 292 HP. All the engines came in aluminum and cast iron blocks and heads. Be VERY careful swapping parts.

Yeahhh Thats Preety Much What I Heard Of These Engines , Do You Guys Think An Eaton Supercharger From A Svt Cobra Will Bolt Right On Into My Aviator ?

Bolt right on may be an overstatement, but there is no reason why it wouldn't work. What year cobra engine do you have?
