How To Rebuild 4.6L and 5.4L Ford Engines - Workbench Series - SA Designs

Since the 1990s, the Ford 4.6-liter has become a modern-day V-8 phenomenon, powering everything from Mustangs to hand-built hot rods. Its innovative design delivers exceptional power, modification potential, and reliability.

This popular engine has created an industry unto itself with a huge supply of aftermarket high-performance parts, machine services, and accessories. As these engines age and are in need of a rebuild, or are considered for aftermarket performance modification, owners need a hands-on step-by-step rebuilding manual.

The Ford Modular engine is Ford Motor Company's overhead camshaft (OHC) V8 gasoline-powered small block engine family. The Modular engine got its name from its design and sharing of certain parts among the engine family, starting with the 4.6L in 1990 for the 1991 model year.

The name was also derived from a manufacturing plant protocol, "Modular", where the plant and its tooling could be changed in a few hours to manufacture different versions of the engine family. The Modular engines are used in various Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles.

Modular engines used in Ford trucks were marketed under the Triton name from 1997?2010 while the InTech name was used for a time at Lincoln for vehicles equipped with DOHC versions of the engines. The engines were first produced in Romeo, Michigan then additional capacity was added in Windsor, Ontario.

4.6L & 5.4L Ford Engines: How to Rebuild expertly explains each rebuilding phase for these engines, providing crucial step-by-step information and instruction. This newly revised edition delivers the complete nuts-and-bolts rebuild story so you can rebuild an engine at home and achieve professional results.

In addition, it contains a complete history of the engine family as well as essential block, head, and component ID information, and a thorough explanation of Romeo and Windsor component differences for selecting the right parts.

With detailed photos and comprehensive captions, each step is expertly detailed in disassembly, machine work, assembly, start-up, break-in, and tuning for all 4.6- and 5.4-liter engines, including the two- and three-valve SOHC and the four-valve DOHC versions.
