2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500: This Might Be It For Real
The Ford Shelby GT350 has been the top of the Mustang heap for a few years now, but we’ve known for some time that a GT500 is coming to top it.

....so will it have a flat or cross plane crank? We'll find out later this week I'm guessing.
If it makes at least one more horsepower than a ZR1, then it will be more powerful than a ZR1. FACT
Maybe the manual will come later, like what Dodge did with the SRT8 Challenger. IIRC those first came out with the auto only.
Even with 7 gears I'm guessing the gearing will be long for traction purposes. 60 mph in first gear. Says it's a new transmission but wouldn't be surprised if it's very similar to the unit in the GT.
