    When my 2006 Crown Vic POLICE car popped the motor from a faulty Mass Air Flow Sensor, FORD replaced the long block with a 2007 4.6. When my car was returned to me, I was told drive it today like you will any other day. I worked 5p-3a so after calls slowed down and after 1am I got out on the straights smoothest hiway and floored it. After about 4 or 5 runs It topped out at 137mph. When I was issued an Expedition several co workers argued over my car cause it wiped em all. The Expedition topped out at 105 due to the factory speed rating of the tires set in the computer.

None of us have had any issues and have put many HARD miles on our cars. I'm not claiming to be an expert by any means but there has to be more to the 27* of timing jokes lol. Plenty of cars are running that number just fine and making very good reliable power. If there's more to it then I'd surely love to know, I'm always down to learn a thing or two.
