That engine produces 510hp and 420lbft in a V12 Vantage. I can't imagine it's much more than that.

It's NA and it's only 0.6L bigger than the 5.4.

But the Mustang GT is only .6 bigger than the v6 and it gets 100 more horsepower. All those extra cylinders for nothing but using more gas...

They are different types of engines. The 6.0L in the Aston is intended for a grand tourer, and the 5.4L is for a Muscle car. Comparing the number of cylinders and horsepower difference between two motors is not a very good judgment of the motor. It like calling the 1000hp 8L Bugatti V16 crap because you get the same power with half the cylinders and less displacement with a twin turbo LSx.

Thanks for the link. I had seen someone posting some images of that before, at a display, showing the car. That is one badass stang. Wonder what would happen if you turbo'd/SC'd it?

A twin supercharged setup would be crazy for that thing.
