    What kind of Gas will you put in your new 05 GT?????

    as long as the engine dosent call for a higher octane you will be wasting money running anything other than regular (82 octane). If you are running heavy mods which would increase compression or have a higher mileage v8 which has become prone to pinging due to carbon buildup or just poor design...

    Why Pass 05 and wait for 06??

    My reason is my insurance company said only if I wanted another house payment to insure my car. :notnice: Other peoples reasons would likely be completely new and untested engine on a completely new and untested chassis. Let 10,000 test drivers, I mean new owners, take her out and put her...

    05 GT, Where is the hood scoop?

    wimpy cars. lets see if I can work out your definition of wimpy. the 05 will have a 3v 4.6 thats rated at about 300hp from the factory your '96 2v 4.6 came with about 215hp the '05 will have about 315tq from the factory. your '96 came with about 225tq. the '05 has no apparent extraneous...

    05 Mustang GT Engine

    correct me if I am wrong but I think the 5.4 should be the same width as the 4.6, just a little taller to accommodate the stroke

    Aluminum vs. Iron Block...

    know of any other manu's who are doing this? doesnt mercedes use an aluminium block on their v8? I thought bmw did too but I have also heard that some of those m3's and m5's will go bang for no good reason. also, assuming that this engine could be prone to block problems, anybody got any tips...

    The 05 is the best new car of the year

    Not better than the c6? Beg to differ. That new vette engine is going to be awsome but it is still the same basic car. Not that its not a great car but by comparison with the changes the mustang is undergoing the c6 is just getting a minor upgrade. Not only that but that new body used to be...

    So what about the next cobras?

    word on the cobra is that there is no word on the cobra. with the intro of the updated 'shelby cobra' concept, the little 2 seater racer from back in the '60s, rumor is that there may not be another mustang cobra. svt cars would likely be mach, boss, shelby, and maybe others like bullitt and or ...?

    Which Stang are you going for? The V-6 or the V-8?

    mustang cobra is dead. rip and that reptilian nomenclature is going back to where it belongs: a little, ridiculously over horse powered, 2 seat road rocket. Long Live Shelby! hoowah!

    Which Stang are you going for? The V-6 or the V-8?

    talikng about the mileage, considering the bigger bore on the 6 and the vvt on the 8 they may be pretty close.

    Honesty, dumb question? RX8 or new Stang?

    brother in law just had a rx8. he loved it but in the end, the dealer bought it back from him over a recall issue. I liked the car alot but it was NO mustang. Of course if you are going to do pro road racing then of course you want the 8 but ,for me, while the mustang may never handle the...
