The SVT Mustang Cobra’s potent 4.6-liter, DOHC tumble-port V8 engine produces 320 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 317 lbs/ft. of torque at 4,750 rpm. The block is cast aluminum alloy, carrying a fully counterweighted, forged-steel crankshaft. Aluminum upper main, upper thrust and rod bearings add to the engine’s durability. Six high-tensile steel bolts secure each main bearing cap, in an arrangement that spreads loads over a large area of the block.
The aluminum alloy pistons have shallow skirts and a special friction-reducing coating on their sliding surfaces, which improves both durability and the engine’s free-revving characteristics. The pistons are designed to give the engine a compression ratio of 9.85:1.
The engine’s intake system consists of a specially designed conical air filter, an 80mm mass-air flow sensor, and twin 57mm throttle body bores with butterfly valves that open simultaneously, providing exceptional throttle response by quickly yet progressively moving air into the cast-aluminum m anifold.
In the upper manifold, eight tuned runners feed down to the intake ports and eight pairs of 37mm intake valves. The design of the runners and intake ports imparts a tumbling motion to the fuel-air charge as it enters the combustion chamber, which increases the mixture’s volatility and makes it more powerful.
A distributorless, coil-on-plug ignition system fires each cylinder. The system is precise, uncomplicated, and gives a high-energy spark for efficient burn characteristics.
The exhaust manifolds are made of high-silicon, molybdenum iron, feeding into a stainless steel exhaust system with 2.25-inch pipes and low-restriction mufflers.
Each SVT Cobra engine is hand-assembled at the Romeo (Mich.) Engine Plant. Two-person teams assemble the engines on a separate, dedicated line, and their final task is fastening a signature plate, inscribed with their names, onto the right cam cover.
Behind the engine, a rugged 11-inch, single-plate clutch and Tremec™ 5-speed manual transmission deliver power to the SVT Cobra’s 3.27:1 crown-and-pinion gears and limited slip differential. The differential assembly is housed in an aluminum case.
