Not sure if anyone pays attention to Australian Supercars racing, but a kickass 3rd Gen Mustang Supercar was unveiled earlier today...

Interesting to see all the Ford logos, my understanding is that Ford is trying to make Mustang a brand of its own. Mine only has one (very subtle) Ford logo on the entire car for example.

Looking forward to seeing that race. It looks so much better than the current gen version.

Oh, and a 5.4 Coyote? (I thought 5.2 was the maximum size due to the bore spacing.....but perhaps that's just for road car version's reliability/durability)

Great sound.

Beautiful.

The 5.4 liter Coyote looks so elegant and clean. Nice to see how racers can make an engine look so very good. I need to find a reason to take a vacation and go to Australia and see the engine in person. Oh by the way , that rear wing looks so fantastic.

Not off topic at all IMO...
I think all the gen 3 Supercars are just badass!
Thanks for sharing the Jag version. I hadn't seen this one yet.

I feel like for that much change 600HP crank on e85 seems low isn't that just a about 30 more than a FBO 5.0 on e85 when it comes down to the wheels?

But this isn't a full bolt on. no CJ/ no aftermarket cams / stock intake-TB-injectors yet makes 600

Not wheel no, but crank yes. Headers, exhaust, intake, and e85 on a 18+ GT is 500-510WHP. thats about 30WHP less than that engine will make with 10-12% loss.

Gen 3 with cams, CJ, intake 592hp CRANK
Ford Coyote Update: New Stage-3 Cams Dyno 592 HP! (motortrend.com)

They later ported the TB and manifold to clear 600.

Who cares if the intake/TB is stock or not? Point is if you want 600 crank you can do it a LOT cheaper than buying a full custom engine with 5.4L. You can just do FBO, CJ, cams and be at like 590-595 and pocket a few grand.

Far as I'm concerned anyone moving to a 5.4 with custom cams and head work and keeping a stock/not even ported IM is a dumbass.

who cares about pictures when you have have sound!!

Are you making 600 NA or anything remotely close to 600 NA in anything ?
