Point is regardless which engine you compare Ford's 5.4 with, you have to agree that the difference is too minimal to cover for the difference in displacement.
Oh yeah, no doubt about it. I think everybody can agree with me on this statement - Ford's engines are a bit anemic (minus the diesel and the V10).

However, what people WON'T agree with me on is this.... these same engines will get the ob done, just a bit slower. They have been for years and years.

I found a website a few weeks ago that said all the power Ford engines made. In '79 they made like 200 horsepower out of a big block 400m lol.
