I could be wrong butI think she means the F-150 and its 5.4L V-8 is the same motor they use in the GT500........maybe?
ORIGINAL: VictoriaRR

It's cool that the Mustang has a truck motor. But hey, it's a Mustang and we can't be running around with a Focus engine, now can we?

I think I read the GT shares its engine with some F-series trucks.

no, the 5.4 in the ford GT is a comepletly different motor than the one in the truck

its a 5.4L but with a different bore and stroke than the truck engine. plus everything is forged etc...

I had a Capri with the V4. It was very quick and fun to drive. This was in 83 I think the car was a 71.
