a good Mustang LX with the 302 is a beast if done right ...

So is the new 5.0 just a stroked cobra/mach motor or is it a whole new engine?

The new Coyote engine is first expected to appear in the F-150 pickup in 2010 and then in the Mustang by 2011. The specs include a four-valve SOHC design, with power up around the 400hp (300kW) region and torque upwards of 400lb-ft (540N. MACHs have a DOHC

Ford has lost the HP war since '93, other than the s/c 03-04 Cobras. Camaro will always be the champ.

all these new cars make my fbody look slow

**wheeliE-maxx** · 12-22-2009, 11:48 PM

A fourth gen will run with a 5th easy. You MIGHT need an intake lid and the free mods...

**snaggeltooth** · 12-26-2009, 08:37 PM

I remember some Iroc Z's having a HO 350 but around my area were very rare. I don't think a manual trans were options either. I never got to ride or drive one. Many more 5.slows around. I can remember my young and dumb days, street racing built 5.0s with my stock '98 Z28 and waxing their asses. So funny when I would pop the hood and they could see the dust, mud and dirt caked in the engine bay. Took me a long time to even change the clogged up air filter.

I'd love to have a mint '92 Z28 w/ the 5.7 and the high rear spoiler. Those are some great looking Camaros IMO.

tpi's are dog motors that fall flat after 4k rpms. The 5 liters destroyed tpi cars in the 80s. Its amazing how you guys like to jump decades when trying to slam Fords SMALLER displacement engines. 4.6's with 300 horses, this new 5.0 with 412. GM hits power levels with almost a liter more most of the time. But who fucking cares, a strong engine is a strong engine.

225/300 or 205/275 < 245/345. 5.0's didn't exactly rev out stock either
