Hello,
Im was looking for a 5.4 lightning engine for a project I have and its about 5,500 with tranny on ebay. I searched the cobra engine and its about 8k WTF why is the cobra engine more expenisive the 5.4 is clearly a better engine with more power. So what do I go with for the mustang gt project a lightning engine or a cobra engine both supercharged? Fodaddy: are you sure the lightning cant handle that much power? I know someone that is running 10.00 flats in the quatermile with a lightning 5.4 |

The cobra engine is a 32 valve DOHC, it's more complex, the lightning engine is a SOHC 16 valve. The Cobra block can handle upwards of 900 HP with mostly stock internals. The Lightning engine cannot support that much power.
