4 valve Mustangs

Exactly what Mustangs came with 4 valve engines?

Al,

The '96 and up Cobras, Mach 1s, and Shelby GT500s. (Note: The new GTs only have 3-valve heads.)

Patrick,

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Are you 100% sure the supercharged Cobra's are 4 valve? Got in an argument last night with a guy with a Saleen. He swore NO supercharged Mustangs had four valve heads?? I raced a guy with an older non boosted Cobra, think it was an 02, he showed me the engine and I know it had four valve heads. Or at least that's what his had? BTW: He lost:)

The supercharged Cobras are four valve and, IMO, are one of the best (if not the best) engines Ford has ever put into a production car. That motor can be tweaked to put out a very reliable 800 rwhp without even taking off the valve covers. It is built like a tank.

As you can see Mike agreed with me.

Here's a link for confirmation:

I'm surprised the Saleen guy didn't know this.
