Found this blurb in a summary about last month's FFW at Houston.
Wonder if it is a 4.6 or the PJ 5.0?)



And found a video clip from a different event.

So when they threw this ol' dog a bone, and I was glad to take it.

Happy too that Saleen is putting more focus on the Mustang again, now
that the S7's time is about up.
The air bag exemption for the S7 runs out soon, I think.
sorry to get off topic, but whats airbag/bumper exception

Pj Justus's PJ could be an custom PJ302 with an Saleen Supercharger.


Also I have heard about other Saleen Models coming soon.
  • Saleen H302 - 390 HP - A follow-on to the H281, this limited-production edition shares the majority of the bodywork of and possesses a high-compression, 302 CID based on those of the S302 Parnelli Jones Limited Edition. Unlike the H281, this version has the same hood scoop as on the S302PJ but lacks the chrome trim accents and is available in all Ford OEM colors except grabber orange. The body side stripes are identical to those on the H281.
  • Saleen H302 SC - 500+ HP - Equipped with a Saleen forced-induction system, this version is an increased performance version of the H302 with options for some of the features that appeared on the S302PJ such as a Watts Link. Due to the supercharger, this vehicle is unable to be equipped with the hood scoop featured on the S302PJ.
  • Saleen S281 3V - 360 HP - For the 2008 model year, the naturally aspirated 3-valve possesses an increased horsepower rating in addition to a multitude of refinements to improve the road-handling of the vehicle.
  • Saleen S281 SC - 465 HP -
  • Saleen S302 E - 600+ HP - Borrowing from the S302PJ, the S302E utilizes an engine derived from that used on the Limited Edition but equipped with a Saleen Series VI Supercharger to maximize horsepower. This model replaces the S281E for the 2008 model year.

Thanks Edson. Helps to make daydreaming a bit easier.

What I've heard is that the Justus car is a S/C 4.6 motor.

My Saleen sources say the final decision on producing the H302 line hasn't been made yet.
The H281 run can almost be considered a proof of concept test for the H302 models.

Stripes are not painted, which I would guess makes them vinyl. We have a Tungsten car on the showroom floor that looks better than any color I have seen, IMHO. (other than GO ;-))
