Depends on whichever you like but IMO 4v takes it on this one, turbo 4v=death.

No comparison, 4.6.

I'll even go on to say that 4.6 SOHC >>> pushrod 5.0

vamptec...I have one of each and I like both equally. IMO the pushrod engines are more fun to work on and have a larger cheaper aftermarket. Pushrod engines have way more potential when NA. However the modular engines are more reliable, easier to tune, and easier to diagnose codes...even after modifications.
