Engine and Transmission
Modifications
The functional Shaker is
modeled after the original 1969 Shaker. The Shaker is mounted to the intake
manifold and directs fresh air to the air filter tray assembly. The dual 57mm
throttle body feeds air through a cast aluminum intake manifold and into a set
of new high flow four valve cylinder head. The new cylinder heads house a 5.4L
4-valve intake cam and a high performance exhaust cam. This cam combination
greatly enhances torque at lower engine speeds. A new set of exhaust manifolds
are port matched to the new cylinder heads. The mufflers are tuned to create a
unique sound and the tips are chromed setting the Mach 1 apart from other steeds
in the stable. The Mach 1 axle has been upgraded with a high torque differential
that is coupled to a set of 3.55:1 final drive gears.
