3.9?

N_Jack · 12-23-2004, 12:37 AM

i see most people when they talk about their 04 v6's they refer to them as 3.9 which i dont quite understand since when i go to fordirect.com, cars.com, and other places the 3.9 isn't listed as an option. i talked to a dealer about it and he said there was no such thing, although i'm sure this wouldn't be the first time that a dealer didn't know s###, so does anyone know somewhere that would have specs/info on that engine?

its the 3.8L stroked a little more to a 3.9L to get a few extra hp.

don't suppose you know where id find the torque and hp specs would you? I'm mainly interested in where the torque peaks out

193hp somewhere around the same for torque...dont quote me on that though.

Im unsure since I got into a debate a long time ago about this, apparently some places list the '04 GT's as having 3.9l engines and others as 3.8? Thats what I came up with a few months ago [&:]
