the 05 mustang is a 3v 4.6 with 300hp, who knows what the cobra will be in 06? it would be sweat if they used the 5.0 mod motor, but i doubt they will.....

Why you'd abandon the modular for an oldschool pushrod 302 from a manufacturer's point of view makes no sense.

Yeah, they came up with a 4.6 that uses 3 valves instead of 2 valves.

the 5.4 v8 is mogular with the 4.6 and they when to a 3 valve head which i think is stupid because it limits the hp potenshal in the fist year of this awsome new car and chasy. they will never go back to the 5.0 it is old school and think of the weight to hp ratio and look at the power the 302 had stock about 215 and look the 4.6 is geting 300 why would u ever want to add the weight and lose power. and think of all the lost power in using an interal. cam

In addition to changing the GT's, the LX now has a 4.2L V-6 making 250hp. Not bad, it's a far cry from the 4cyl LX's of the 80's

hahahaha holy **** where did you hear 250hp? thats almost as much as an 03 gt

04ShakinSteed

Uh yeah, I think it may be around 200hp for the V6

last time i checked, Ford was busy producing the concept for the 06 "Shelby Cobra".
Which for your information is a v10 N/A 660 HP. It has no roof, only a roll bar(wierd i know), maybe they'll make a roof for the actual car. But for the 06 there is NO COBRA to be in production other then the limited edition "Shelby Cobra". I don't think there will be an 05 cobra either.

It looks to me like ford is headed into the smaller cid and more valves for good. The 5.4 triton seems to fare well and the 4.6 3 valve 05 is putting out 300hp... is would be a step backwards to froduce a pushrod 5.0 now. If they want to keep the 3 valve technology AND up the disp. to 5.0 that ed be awesome but i dunno.... what the cammer got? 5.0 i know 2, 3 or 4 valve?
What are the reasons with not keeping the cobra for 2005?
