English Report on the Mustang GT 5.0

yep, u read that right. im doing a report on the 5.0 Mustang GT. actually both the engine and the car, but most likely the car. so why did i make this thread? well i have a very limited knowledge about the car itself and the engine. so i made this thread to help me gather some information on it. so are there any 5.0 guru's on TMS??

Which generation of 5.0's are we talking about? Or is the report on the 5.0 through the ages?

well i had my mind on the 90s 5.0 but i guess i've changed it to the evolution of the 5.0...from its carburated days to throttle body injected, to finally fuel injected.

SHO V6 was a blast to drive at the time. Like nothing I'd ever driven before. It was truly something different. I wanted one at the time, but the best I could manage was to test drive a handful of them back then.

The engine is primarily made out of awesominium with a few camarokryptonite alloys.
