Airflow is a key ingredient to the engine's performance characteristics. A "box" intake manifold houses the intake runners, which feed CNC ported cylinder heads. The engines dual overhead cam design features a high lift exhaust profile and 4 valves per cylinder, in addition to twin independent variable camshaft timing. A relatively high 11.0 : 1 compression ratio contributes to the engine's "snappy" throttle response and high performance potential over its broad operating range. While the engine's torque is slightly lower than that of Ford's standard 5.0L V-8, it's horsepower and torque curves are altogether different due to the engine's unique traits.
