  1. Carl Widmann, former Mustang chief engineer, hints at the future of the coyote

    I don't get why the world on fixated on the number of cylinders when it comes to "killing the V8". Ford makes a 3.5, 3.0. 2.7L V6s. Make a 3.5L V8, makes a 2.7L V8. I don't care, long as it's got eight pots. Displacement is want we're talking about, just make a smaller V8. I still think a...
  2. Predictions for S650 Shelby

    I just skipped to the end here, but.. Ill be happy when I never see ole Carroll's name on a Mustang again. Bring back the Cobra and take the licensing fee off the price.
  3. Ford Teases NASCAR Next Gen Mustang Race Car, Debuts May 5 for Global Mustang Week

    NASCAR claimed "Return to Stock" dayum, they weren't lying.
  4. Ford Teases NASCAR Next Gen Mustang Race Car, Debuts May 5 for Global Mustang Week

    NASCAR will not/cannot show anything before Ford lets them. I'd imagine that any NASCAR body that's modeled after the '23 Mustang would not be shown before FORD officially releases the new design. The body for the '22 season will be based off the current Mustang. No doubt. We all know how...
  5. Ford Teases NASCAR Next Gen Mustang Race Car, Debuts May 5 for Global Mustang Week

    I see the aero being the main driver of cost. That puts teams like Hendrick/Gibbs/Penske at a HUGE advantage. The science and engineering that go into computer simulations, fluid dynamics, etc cost millions. NASCAR limits actual wind tunnel testing, so that cost shifts to teams, and requires...
  6. Ford Teases NASCAR Next Gen Mustang Race Car, Debuts May 5 for Global Mustang Week

    Man, I f'in love NASCAR. Can't wait for these new cars. I hope they're are less aero-dependent. They are supposed to be. I really wonder about Chevy. Yeah, the new car will probably come out as a Camaro, but what happens when they kill it in a year or two? I'm no chevy fan, but I don't...
  7. S650 design cues?

    I like it. It's my opinion that if FORD wants to set the Mustang apart with it's own brand and sub models, they need to go big and make a big splash. The Mach e doesn't count. More like a splat. No more of this new bumper/headlight tweak crap. Think of a jump like the one from the SN95 to...
  8. S650 2023 Mustang (7th Gen) Lead Designer Revealed

    I think that new BMW M3/M4 look is f'kin RAD. Love it. This is hwo big Ford needs to go here. This incremental BS on top of a "vintage inspired" design is played out. Dodge is retro, Chevy retro, Ford Retro. Who's gonna go big here and take the spotlight? I always remember something that...
  9. “Next Gen” Mustang Will be Electric (EV) Only Claims Autoline

    I had a red 71 Mach in High school. It was a 351C 4V with a C6. Had a red interior. We put an intake, hooker long tubes, flows, dumps, a huge solid lifter cam, a 750 Double pumper and 4:11 gears. Like you said, that shit pulled hard up top. I eventually had a 950 Pro series holly on it and...
  10. “Next Gen” Mustang Will be Electric (EV) Only Claims Autoline

    If they could hold two people, then yes. And a golf cart isn't a firkin car.
  11. “Next Gen” Mustang Will be Electric (EV) Only Claims Autoline

    This. All electric cars don't interest me. I like cars specifically because of V8 engines. No V8? I'm not interested. If I have to drive one in 2050 to get around, so be it. It won't give me the feels.
  12. “Next Gen” Mustang Will be Electric (EV) Only Claims Autoline

    I know the Coyote is about $9.5, and Godzilla can be had for $7.5K. -half the valves/guides -half the valve springs -half the rockers -one quarter the number of cams -one timing chain instead of four -one cam phase instead of four -half the aluminum in the head -all the less time labor to put...
  13. “Next Gen” Mustang Will be Electric (EV) Only Claims Autoline

    Right? I know nobody think this engine will end up in the Mustang, but... Riddle me this: Why would Ford offer the 6.8L and the 5.0L in the F150. The 7.3 is only for Super Dutys. -What is the take rate on the 5.0 in teh F-150? -How much more does a 5.0 cost to manufacture than a 6.8 w/ iron...
  14. Report: Next gen S650 Mustang will have full 8 year life cycle

    Yeah, maybe they mean every one will be "electrified" instead of all electric. I'd be cool with a smaller V8/Hybrid with the motor at the engine/trans area or at the wheels. We've all seen the drawings of the V8 with the front motors...like you said man. I could stomach a hybrid V8, but...
  15. “Next Gen” Mustang Will be Electric (EV) Only Claims Autoline

    Horse pucky. And a Tesla is not an automobile...anymore than a golf kart. And an electric only mustang won't be either. I'm fixin' to buy a '7 1 Mach w/ 3514V. That'll show em.
  16. Report: Next gen S650 Mustang will have full 8 year life cycle

    Yeah, boy am I ready for them to just go back to calling them Cobras. Amazing cars, but I could do without the Shelby thing.
  17. Report: Next gen S650 Mustang will have full 8 year life cycle

    Most people know this, I certainly do. It doesn't mean much. Rumors about when the S650 would drop were all over the place in the last 2-3 years. Plans seems to change fast at Ford. Hell, they have three CEOs in every Mustang lifecycle. At least Hackett is gone.
  18. Report: Next gen S650 Mustang will have full 8 year life cycle

    This must be a mistake. It makes no sense. If the current start date info is correct, S650 will run MY'23, '24, '25, '26, '27,'28, which is only 6 model years. How in the world can they know the start date of the gen after the gen that hasn't even started yet?
  19. Report: S650 Mustang To Use Unique Platform with CD6 Architectural Bits

    Thanks for being "that guy" you dunce. If you take the rear seats out of a 4 seat car it's still a 4 seat car with the seats taken out. A corvette is a two seat car. Understand? Especially silly comment since we were discussing altering the wheelbase to create an actual 2 seat car. Which will...
