Man, I'd loved to see an all aluminum version of this engine in a Mustang hooked up to the GT500's tremec anf a right sized shaker poking through the hood.

You will never see a 6.2l in a Mustang... It is too wide to fit between the shock towers.

I have a hard time beleivng the 6.2 with its 2v heads are wider than the 5.4 and its 4v heads. The 5.4 S/C is roughly (LxWxH) 30" x 30" x 30" a Boss 429 is 32" x 30" x 30" (roughly) and it fits down into the S-197 engine bay with no problems. And there is room to grow, the 4.6 4v was a tighter fit in the SN95 cars by a good margin (especially the 5.4 4v in the 2000 R)

I think its less a matter of space and more a matter of having a very (add another very in there as well) limited market for the engine. Modern Mustang guys for the most part have embraced small displacement multivalve engines and power adders rather than large displacement naturally aspirated engines. Especially with the success if the current 5.0

Let's just say that I was involved with some of the initial packaging studies, and it is too big for the engine bay. It is a LOT wider than the 4V 5.4L. The 6.2L has a much larger bore, and more stroke than a 5.4, add to that a overhead cam head that REALLY breathes with huge valves, you have a wide, large engine.

What are the dimensions on the 6.2L?
