The {{cvt|4601|cc|L CID|1}} [[Engine displacement|displacement]]<ref name="Triton"/> 90-degree V8 was offered in 2-valve [[SOHC]], [[Multi-valve#Three valves|3-valve]] SOHC, and 4-valve [[DOHC]] versions. The engines were also offered with both aluminum and cast iron blocks, depending on application. The 4.6&nbsp;L's bore and stroke are nearly square at {{cvt|3.552x3.543|in|mm}}, respectively. Deck height for the 4.6 block is {{cvt|8.937|in|mm}} and connecting rod length is {{cvt|5.933|in|mm}} center to center, giving the 4.6&nbsp;L a 1.67:1 rod to stroke ratio. Cylinder bore spacing measures {{cvt|3.937|in|mm}}, which is common to all members of the Modular engine family. All Modular V8s, except for the 5.0&nbsp;L Coyote and 5.2&nbsp;L Voodoo, utilize the same firing order as the [[Ford small block engine|Ford 5.0&nbsp;L HO and 351&nbsp;CID]] V8s (1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8). The 4.6&nbsp;L engines have been assembled at [[Ford Romeo Engine Plant|Romeo Engine Plant]] in Michigan, and at Windsor Engine Plant and [[Essex Engine Plant]], both located in [[Windsor, Ontario]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://media.ford.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=15388 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130410195018/http://media.ford.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=15388 |url-status=dead |archive-date=2013-04-10 |title=Ford's Romeo Engine Plant to Build New 4.6-Liter 3-Valve V-8 Engine |publisher=Media.ford.com |access-date=2013-03-11 }}</ref>

===2-valve===
The first production Modular engine was the 4.6&nbsp;L 2-valve [[SOHC]] V8 introduced in the 1991 [[Lincoln Town Car]].

The 4.6&nbsp;L 2V was built at both Romeo Engine Plant and Windsor Engine Plant, which had different designs for cylinder heads (cam caps: interconnected cam "cages" vs. individual caps per cam journal), camshaft sprockets (bolt-on vs. press-on), valve covers (11 bolts vs. 13 bolts), crankshaft (6 bolts vs. 8 bolts) and main bearing caps (2 bolt fasteners with 2 jack screws vs. 2 bolt fasteners with dowel pins).<ref name="Modified Mustangs & Fords">{{cite web|url=http://www.mustangandfords.com/techarticles/engine/mufp_0510_ford_modular_v8_engine_part_2/viewall.html |title=Ford Modular V-8 Engines Explained Part 2 Get Familiar With Ford's Next-Generation Overhead Cam V-8 Powerhouse With A Closer Look At Cylinder Heads |publisher=Modified Mustangs & Fords |date=September 2005 |access-date=2013-03-01}}</ref>

===3-valve===
[[File:2006 Ford Mustang GT engine.jpg|right|thumb|250px|4.6&nbsp;L 3-valve SOHC V8 installed in a 2006 [[Ford Mustang]] GT]]

The 3-valve [[SOHC]] 4.6&nbsp;L with [[Variable Cam Timing|variable camshaft timing (VCT)]] first appeared in the redesigned 2005 Ford Mustang.

The engines are equipped with an electronic [[variable length intake manifold|Charge Motion Control Valve]] (CMCV) system that provides increased air velocity at low engine speeds for improved emissions and low-rpm torque. Cylinder block material varies between aluminum used in the 2005-10 Mustang GT and cast iron used in the truck applications.

The 3-valve SOHC 4.6&nbsp;L engine was on the [[Ward's 10 Best Engines]] list for 2005–2008.

[[File:96Mark8Eng.jpg|right|thumb|4.6&nbsp;L 4-valve DOHC ''InTech'' V8 installed in a 1996 [[Lincoln Mark VIII]]]]
[[File:2003 Ford Mustang Cobra 32v Supercharged engine.jpg|right|thumb|250px|4.6&nbsp;L 4-valve DOHC supercharged V8 installed in a 2003 and 2004 [[Ford Mustang SVT Cobra]]]]

The 4-valve [[DOHC]] version of the Modular engine was introduced in the 1993 [[Lincoln Mark VIII]] as the 4.6&nbsp;L ''Four-Cam'' V8. Lincoln marketed the engine under the name ''InTech'' after 1995.<ref>Ford Motor Company. 1993 Lincoln Mark VIII, pages 5–6,18. 1993. MarkVIII.org. http://www.markviii.org/LOD2/1993brochure/FrameSet.htm</ref>

The 1993–1998 4-valve engines featured cylinder heads with two intake ports per cylinder (split-port) and variable runner length intake manifolds with either vacuum or electrically activated intake manifold runner controls (IMRC) depending on application. The engine was revised for 1999 with new cylinder heads featuring tumble-style intake ports (one intake port feeding two intake valves), new camshaft profiles, and fixed runner-length [[intake manifold]]s. These changes resulted in more power, torque and a broader power-band when compared to the earlier 4-valve engines.<ref name="Modified Mustangs & Fords"/>

All 4.6&nbsp;L 4-valve engines featured aluminum engine blocks with 6-bolt main bearing caps, the only exception being the 2003–2004 SVT Cobra which had a 4-bolt main cast iron block. The 1999 and earlier engines featured an aluminum block cast in Italy by [[Fiat]] subsidiary Teksid S.p.A. Since 1996, all of the 4.6&nbsp;L 4-valve engines manufactured for use in the [[SVT Cobra]] have been hand-built by [[Special Vehicle Team|SVT]] technicians at Ford's [[Romeo, Michigan]] plant.<ref name=autogenerated1>{{cite web|last=Devlin |first=Mike |url=http://news.thomasnet.com/IMT/archives/2005/10/when_factory_au_1.html?WT.mc_t=imt&WT.mc_n=site_entry |title=When Factory Automation Just Isn't Appropriate : Industrial Market Trends |publisher=News.thomasnet.com |date=2005-10-07 |access-date=2017-09-17}}</ref>

The 4-valve DOHC 4.6&nbsp;L engine was on the [[Ward's 10 Best Engines]] list for 1996 and 1997.
