Powertrain Options and Availability
An F-150 could be equipped with a V6 that produced 210 horsepower (205 in 1999), or a choice of two overhead-cam V8s. The 4.6-liter V8 made 220 horsepower; its 5.4-liter counterpart, 235 horses. The bigger V8 gained 25 horsepower and 15 pound-feet of torque for '99 and then a little more power in 2003. Either a 5-speed manual transmission or 4-speed automatic might be installed, but the 5.4-liter V8 came only with automatic. For 2002, the Harley-Davidson Edition replaced a 260-hp 5.4 V8 with a 340-hp supercharged version while the new Lightning 5.4-liter made 380 horsepower.
