I don't quite know what to say. Should be interesting when they finish it though.

They are putting a twin turbo LS7 in the mustang and hoping for around 1000hp.

Well...I guess that's better than putting a Ford motor in a Corvette.

Code name.....The Heretic.

There may be a reason that they are putting the LSx derivitive engine in the Mustang. Maybe because it is better?

It's good to me.

I love Mustangs.

I don't really know the point of putting the LS engine in it.

There are plenty of ways to get 1000HP from Ford engines as well.

At least they aren't putting a Nissan engine it like they did in Tokyo Drift.

That just shouldn't be done.
