Coyote, Roadrunner, Bobcat?

We all know some general info on the coyote, but what about the roadrunner and/or bobcat? Are there any other motors in the skunkworks?

I believe the roadrunner is a forged 5.0 DOHC turbo motor? Boomer knows more than any of us - perhaps he'll confirm

I looked for links online and found nothing. Though I know they were there before. For some reason somebody has had all references to 'Roadrunner' removed.

I agree with above. From the hints that I remember it is a turbocharged V-8. Perhaps a powerplant for the future GT500's.

I'm just mearly saying what the roadrunner does...
And he's faster than the coyote...

Whether he's NA, Supercharged, or snailed... well we'll all just have to wait and see...

There is always something down the road isn't there?

As soon as we have the 5.0, we're all going to be chomping at the bit to get details on the new GT500 engine (Roadrunner)!

Now I know what your avatar means. I didn't figure it out until now.

Respectfully,

C'mon Boomer! You know I put this thread here so you could enlighten us a little more. How about at least pointing out the differences? How about Hurricane or Cyclone too? Just some simple discussion would suffice.

good luck getting info out of boom, he's just a little less mysterious than Topnotch
