Personally I disagree with this because the increase in capacity from 4.0 to 4.6 was achived by changing the stroke, not the bore. There were also 3 grades of blocks, graded according to the thickness of metal behind the liners. The 4.6 use the best and possible the middle grades, but never...

I fitted a set a couple of weeks ago. I can confirm that headlight alignment and beam pattern do not change. They are *very* bright but I have not had any oncomming drivers flashing their headlights at me, so they must be aimed ok. MOT is due in a couple of weeks, so I will know for certain...
