Personally I think it would be awesome and would take much needed weight off of the front end.

Very amusing time in Mustang news right now. Seems like the closer we get to an actual announcement of Ford's 2011 drivetrain lineup.......the more rumors are creeping out of every possible auto publication on the net.
Personally, I think the skies the limit with regards to Ford's future for its old pony. They're finally in a position to make some true "bold moves" and surprise the entire car industry in the process. As excited as I am to see the unveiling of the Coyote powered Mustang......I'm almost more eager to see what Ford will have in store for the 2014-2015 Mustang. I really believe it's going to be the culmination of everything they've been working towards with the Mustang these last 20 years or so.......something really special that will finally be a contender on the world stage.

My guess is that the GT350 will be the new Shelby GT.......a Coyote GT with some exhaust/suspension/appearance modifications. I had heard some rumors about an ecoboost powered GT350, but I don't see that happening unless Ford is actually bringing us an ecoboost production model in SE form. Anything's seeming possible right now.

Shelby is still constantly scheming about better, faster, cooler stuff. "I'm interested in making the company money so it can build all the crap I dream up," says Shelby with a laugh. What's his next car? Ford won't comment, and Shelby only grinned when I tried to pry info out of him about a badass-looking thing I saw under a sheet in the corner of the shop. I could see white with blue stripes, just like his first and most famous pony, the GT350.
A little bird told me that 2000 units had been ordered to turned into GT350's that are going to be Whipple powered.
Word is the Shelby GT350 will be unveiled at the Detroit NAIAS in January!
hi guys just a point of reference, if we were to unveil anything at Detroit we would not be able to show it at Carroll's bash, as the car would be in transit to detroit....sorry..
but if we were unveiling I would absolutely share it here first!
Just wanted you all to have the right info to do your supposing.....................
