6.2 & 5.8-liter engines coming? Hurricane engine program?

With competition looming from Dodge and Chevy, the Mustang will keep its current look until the 2010 model year, when we can expect a restyled version. Bigger engines are planned though, with 6.2-liter and 5.8-liter powerplants rumored to be coming out of Ford's "Hurricane" engine program. Automotive News suggests that Ford may revive the legendary Boss badge for the big-engine models. More nebulous are a Mercury version of the Mustang and a Lincoln coupe based on the pony car platform, both just at the design concept stage.

I can see it now, big cowl hood to fit the engine and twin screw SC under, Tubular front suspension to fit long tube headers and carry the bigger springs and struts. A/C Delete along with moving the battery to the trunk for more room. Big fluidyne radiator with low profile twin fans.
