Thanks for sharing. Where did you get that pic from ? Mustang heaven !!!! The way it's going now, their won't be much official unveiling on Monday or at a later date. Viva internet.
Those headers won't stay nice for long, ceramic coating would do wonder to them.

Good to know longtubes will still be worthwhile. Those "tuned" headers are puny!

It won't sound the same. The type of engine and bore/stroke are completely different.

But apparently it sounds like sex

Is the upper intake actually aluminum? In that pic it looks like gray plastic...

Mustangheaven: has died and gone to Mustang heaven, so to speak.

There's a new member here that's been in the hot seat. The sound will not disappoint.

Does this mean you can no longer fit a supercharger in the valleys between the engine like the 4.6?

Sorry Branman!

For those that haven't seen in the 412hp thread. Thoughts? Engine looks great. I don't care for the font on the badge.

It looks better than I expected. Someone really took their time designing that cover to look good. And those runners

I'm pretty happy that the 5.0 badge returns

No. A roots type supercharger would replace the whole intake manifold altogether, so it can be done to fit.

Looks like the heads stretch out to meet the upper intake manifold in that pic instead of the runners from the intake being longer... the intake side on the heads seem built in, so there is no "valley" ?
