The picture looks good. I notice you can't see the area where a blower pulley would project out though.

Doing the math, 7L over 4.6L equals 1.52 more displacement, but 590HP over 300 HP for a 4.6L equals 1.967 more HP, almost twice the HP but only 1.5 times the displacement. Something does not compute.

And if it does compute, why isn't Ford producing 590 HP divided by 1.52 ratio for a 388 HP 4.6L today? Where's my NA 390 HP 4.6L Mustang 'vert? Better yet, where's my 400HP 4.6L T-Bird for under $40K????

Ford has become such a wuss-comglomerent since the days of Total Performance. Nothing but cars/vehicles that women feel safe in and that wouldn't raise the pulse of a person on a gurney who's hearing 'CLEAR!'. Sad demise for a once-vital culture.

I'm sure we'll all see more and learn more when the car is trotted out at the various auto shows, starting with Detroits's.
