Default DOHC comes back?

Anyone see the new Ford Mustang GT has a 5.0 that is knocking out 412 NA HP @ 6500? That equates to a 12.8 @110....not bad...will be interesting to see more specifics as the engine comes out.

Wonder if there any ideas we can steal?

PS Pete it has electric power steering

I know that, but they have not come close to 400hp without forced induction......fuel economy is better than the 3 valve 4.6....K&N did an independent test of the motor, coming up with almost 440hp.

Electric power steering:

Nope, direct injection was not in the budget.....although casting is set up for it down the road.

Equally impressive is their new V6 that makes 305hp and gets >30mpg on the EPA's 2008+ highway test. You can get a 300hp 6-speed manual and a warranty for about $23k sticker.

They also have a V6 performance package that adds the GT suspension, but it isn't out yet. I assume you could get that on a base coupe for a real performance bargain, but who knows.
