I need a few technical questions answered to feed the gears turning in my head:

The Ford GT has dual injectors per cylinder, does the GT 500?

The rods on the 03 - 04 Cobra were forged H-beam rods, the Gt 500 has forged I-beam rods. Does anyone have any information on these rods? Will they take extreem horspower modifications like the H-beam rods did?

I'm thinking that I will have a 9 second ET daily driver!

Also, of important note, this months "May 2005" Musle Mustangs and Fast Fords dynoed a 5.4 L supercharged 32v engine with a Procharger F2M (25 psi :shock: ), it made 1,135 hoursepower!

Thank you Ford for giving us such an awsome Mustang!

I am very curis about this also, the ford press kit stated it was using the ford gt intake and heads. If this is true thin I would think it would have the 16 32lb injectors like the ford GT.

Nice write up on the ford GT engine can be foud below linky

Note not the same as the cobra gt500 but is simular except for the block, oil cooler, supercharger and a few other things.
