Ford Triton 5.4 3V specs: 330 ci (5.4L) 8-cylinder, 3.553 x 4.166 in (90.2 x 105.8 mm) bore and stroke. Rated 300-310 hp, 2005–2014.

The Ford Triton 5.4 3V is undersquare — the 4.166" stroke exceeds the 3.553" bore by 14.7% — a layout that trades peak RPM for leverage and torque low in the range. The 4.166" stroke puts mean piston speed at 4,000 ft/min around 5,750 RPM, which is where a production bottom end is generally considered at its limit. A rod ratio of 1.598 is in the range most production engines fall in. Each of the 8 cylinders displaces 41.3 ci (676 cc).

It is one of 15 engines in the Ford 330ci family, all of them 330 ci — the differences between them are in compression, heads and rating, not displacement. 10 factory variants share these dimensions, rated from 300 to 310 hp across 2005–2014.
