    Depending on what the shortblocks can handle, if I can make 550 with my crappy 5.0, I don't see why you couldn't make about the same with a V6. The V6 makes about what a heads/cam/intake fox makes! lol. Also, not sure how the compression ratio will affect forced induction (10.5:1?)

Those little v-6's are very impressive! I will say that the clutch wouldnt hold, so we just last week replaced with a billet flywheel, and spec 2+ clutch. Next up is an e85 tune we are expecting close to 500 to the ground..

    Damn!

    There may be some overlap between them and the Ecoboost and the SHO, but I was thinking more in line with a custom kit or maybe the procharger.

    prolly a dumb question, but is the v6 in the mustangs of any relation to the ecoboost motors?

    Just my opinion, but the side louvers are badass on thew new 5.0s...

    Do a search on youtube.com and theres a black one with 20" gray rims, the cobra front end/hood but has the side louvers over the glass and damn that car looks badass.

    the title on youtube is something like "2011 GT w/Borla exhaust" or something like that. The cars riding around a parking lot.. black in color
