Default 2005 Cobra?

If they're using the 4.6 supercharged engine in the new 2004 GT's, then what kind of engine will they use in the 2005 Cobra's? SVT is not going to put a pushrod engine in the Cobra, and I dont think that ford usesan OVC engine with a larger displacement than the 4.6. It also seems unlikely that SVT will just up thepsi on the supercharger. Any whispers from Dearborne?

The GT will NOT have the blown 4.6L. Motor Trend is guessing the GTs will have about 300hp and l heard the Cobras won't come out until '06. When it comes out, it'll have the blown 4.6L that makes 600hp.

Ford was thinking about bringing back the Boss 302 but they thought it wasn't necessary (although l thought it was) <img border="0" src=smileys/smiley1.gif border="0">

holy sh*t they were going bring back the boss.I bet anything the reason why they shot down was emissions.They propably wanted the boss to be too powerful and with gas emissions they couldn't do it.
