Default 5.0 for S197s in 09??
I heard from my local dealer today that the 4.6 V8 will be stroked to 5.0 for 2009.
So they can bring back the optionalBOSS 302 package.
Did any of you out there hear such a thing or is my dealer on crack cocaine??

I have heard similar that they will have a factory 302 stroker but I heard it will be a 2010 model.

I heard that a long time ago, then they came out with that Parnelli Jones 5.0 and that other Blue Boss 5.0 and just figured it died with those two cars...

The 5.0 is pretty much a sure thing. It will be released in 2009 as a 2010 Model.

Heard there could also be one more larger V8 option for the Mustang as well on top of the 5.0. Not positive about that, but the 5.0 is for real.

The PJ 5.0 is made by Saleen not Ford!

What sources are you getting that from? That is speculation until Ford says that publicly.

Ford hasn't really said anything about it yet, but I'm hoping we get a 5.0 GT, a N/A 5.4 Boss or Mach, and the F/I 5.4 GT500. *crosses fingers*
