im sure it wont take long for there to be mods available for the 5.0 its not like its just a random motor its a motor they are putting in the mustang i would expect a lot of mods and quick.

 

i kinda hope for around 360, so that way its not already maxed out and we may be able to see 400rwhp with cams and bolt ons..or just bolt ons

 

Or it makes 400+hp stock and can make 400rwhp with an intake/tune.

What I'm trying to say is; I don't understand your logic. Help me out.

 

yea thats what i meant lol

 

Get your guesses in as it looks we may have the answer by the end of this week.

With the 305 HP V6 announcement, it is looking like the 400 HP mark may be exceeded.

 

know that ford has said the V6 will have 300hp the gt is probably gonna b near if not over the 400hp level

 

if you guys look at the numbers for the V6, they are upping on the maro. Which means the GT should be at least 1hp above the v8 maro lol

I'm curious as well either way. because I really don't know if I should FI mine of upgrade to the 5.0... choices choices..

 

If we see a DOHC 5.0L then I will say 425hp/450tq

 

Okay, guys.
I am not a premature poster, but I could not help myself. You have heard of 'My Ford' magazine (for current Ford owners), right?
Well, my buddy at work got his last night and there were a few tidbits about the Boss!
I have not got my copy yet, so I cannot confirm. I went onto my online account, and the article is not posted there.
Ford indicated that the Boss Mustang will be offered with a 'variety of engines' ranging from (drumroll please) a 265 HP base model up to a 500 HP model. While I have not yet seen the article, I trust this guy because he is a former Ford mechanic and a Ford fanatic- like us. As soon as my copy comes in, I will scan & post it.
That's all for now, but if accurate it should put to rest the "only 1,000 units will be built" junk (we all knew it wasn't true) and spins the car in a whole new light. Stay tuned!

 

400/425
