Do you honestly think a 5.0L pushrod would outperform a 5.0 4V, given that they are equally modded?
Oh not at all.. I ment is that It's cheaper to slap a high lift cam, new intake and Headers and get serious power N/A. With the OHC Engine I need to buy 4 Cams not one so my cost went way up right there. The 3 Valve uses VCT, so a high lift cam is out of the question unless you Lock out the phaser gear and add new Springs, Not an easy task.
gotcha
