Trinity is done. Modular is basically done for that matter. Durability isn't the problem. Anything bigger won't fit in the car. Forget the 6.2. Neither the block nor it's manifolds would fit in the car.
Look back at my post, I never said the 6.2 would go into the Mustang. I simply said that in order to get more than 5.2L reliably into Mustang, there would either have to be a taller deck Coyote (not ideal because longer strokes does not equal an engine happy to run a very high rpm). . . Or a short deck version of the Boss 6.2L (this would narrow the motor but keep the wider bore spacing for more bore, meaning a better chance of fitment).

Never said you did, just pointing out that it's not happening. No shape or form.

Mister.Peabodyjunior,
Please let the powers that be, I WANT a FI Cobra/GT500. Not only do I want one, that is what I will buy. I will be buying a stablemate for the GT500 in '18/19, but it has to be FI (whether it be a Mustang or other).

I so much like the idea of a hi-revving NA V8. If they did it with the Boss, they can do it more with the next motor. Call it a GT350, put in the flat-pane crank, 'muscle car sound' be damned. There's no reason the Mustang can't be a modern sports car.

Offer a GT500 for the people who want it. I would rather have a light, modern NA sports car.

Where's this video at? If taken on public roads, I don't see why it can't be posted.

Ford marketing is probably pretty busy these days. They haven't finished it yet.

Seriously.

We were told there was a video as well with the spy pics of the front revealed. Where is that video? Why haven't these videos been released?

I get there are many reasons as to why it might not have been posted yet, but a lack of an explanation or response to the various inquiries why lead me to believe there is something being hidden beyond just the video itself.

The original video quality was very poor. Trying to get something better, but don't know timing yet.

I'd take something over nothing. But it's your site, and your rules, so I respect that :)

Thanks Jarstang. I, for one, can wait for better video.

I'm not sure what everyone is expecting to hear but I will bet money it just sounds like a deep throated V8.... not gonna sound like an exotic, no way no how.
