Sounds like good news, a 6 speed auto will be a great improvement, especially if it has a significantly higher torqe rating than the 5R55S.
To be correct, the 5R55S auto that is used in the Mustang is assembled in Ohio, using a lot of parts made in France, which is why it had France listed as country of origin.

It was originally a 5.8L Boss motor not 5.7 (i've seen that number quoted by error elsewhere as well)
The 5.8 was shelved and only the 6.2L remains (it does however have the ability to got that low, or high as 7L if I'm not mistaken) This is all from online info though.
The 5.0 is derived from the 4.6 mod motor and addresses its shortcomings apparently

I still would like for them to offer a SPRINT package (like the cocnept that was passed around in here for a while) for 2009 in this current body style. If they did I'd buy it if the price was comparable to the GT/CS.

Project 777
7L, 700hp @ 7000 RPM (not 700lbfts)
Engineering exercise on a BOSS 7L
Nothing more....just proves its possible.
It ran in the 9s IIRC (in a 2005+ car)

Its a joint-dev project with Roush, pushing the limits of the Boss/Hurricane architecture. No production plans currently.

I haven't followed it closely--info is damned scarce. If you find anything about the "777", please post it here!
Where this engine fits in the grand scheme of things is anybody's guess...My guess is that it was a prototype version of the rumored truck 6.2 V8--hence the low-tech 2-valve SOHC heads. Whether there were any additional blocks was not stated, and Roush had nothing about it on their website when I cruised through it early last month.
