We need a street version of this car!
What we don't need is another road course car.
We need a Demon slayer, We need this!

do we think this engine would have any carry over to the new gt500? 5.2L SC. .sounds like the general specs for the new snake. Detune it and make it emissions legal...

You can choose between a Top Loader 4 speed with a Hurst shifter, or a C6 automatic with a B&M Star shifter. :thumbsup:

Yep, the Grande' with formal roof and black vinyl will be available mid-run. :headbang:

It also comes stock with Gabriel Hi-Jacker air shocks out back! :D

Nice thing about the Cobra Jet, it is turn-key ready for the strip, unlike the Demon.

I thought the 5.2 was code named “Voodoo” and the 5.0 was the “Coyote”?

5.2 flat plane crank in the gt350 is the voodoo.. doesnt make all 5.2 voodoo.. same for 5.0 the 12/13 boss had a 5.0 but was the road runner.

Anyone want to speculate on the horse power and torque?

True. But the Demon is street legal. There is something to be said for that.

Going that fast, meeting emissions, safety requirements, being able to build it on your assembly line, and making money off it isn't easy.

35 to 40K and a Notchback will get you well into the 8's reliably.

I would love to see a street legal version of the Cobra Jet oust the Demon. But I just don't think it is worth Ford Performance's time in the grand scheme of production performance cars.

I imagine the GT500 will probably come close in some areas, potentially beating a Demon on the street.

Interesting that they are now taking orders, but don't advertise the price nor the power levels. Two things I'd probably want to know before ordering.
