Chief Mustang Engineer Pericak Talks 2015 Mustang with Autoline

Just a few days ago, Chief Mustang Engineer Dave Pericak stopped by to chat with Autoline After Hours and brought with him to the studio the focus of the discussion — what else, than the 2015 Mustang.

During the caller Q&A portion, Pericak was asked about numerous rumors such as the widely-suspected new 5.2L flat plane crank V8 rumored to be debuting in the next SVT GT350 or an all-aluminum future Mustang.  As expected, Pericak was tight-lipped about future plans but the discussion did give listeners a few interesting thoughts to mull over.

Among the highlights, at the end of the session Pericak told host John McElroy that Ford is watching its competition and has a good idea of what to expect from the next-generation Camaro (including size and powertrains). Pericak also tells us to stay tuned to how Ford will respond to the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat’s 707-horses.
