Read up on the Boss 302 engine. Ford made a new STRONGER head as opposed to just porting the coyote head. This tells me that they want to run boost through it. Applying the deck height (and stroke increase) of the 5.4 to the 5.0 yields 5.8L as per the rumor.
looks like the Boss is making a bunch of fans in the press

agreed
Disagree. The point of the car is "a racecar with a license plate". Here are a few others:
These cars are tarted up to stand out and cause a little shock which by the responses in the thread seems to be working. I have not seen a 1:33 viper in person but the GT3RS looks...
if anyone is interested in this type of tech, shoot me a PM. I do consulting for a manufacturer in the space.
Rick, tried to PM you but I don't know how, lol.
edit: Oh, Rick. You live down the street from me, lol.
absolute homerun for FORD!
Forged internals, new cams, intake from the 302R, ajustible shocks, recaros, 3 steering settings, race ABS tune, torsen diff.....they did not play around!
looks great! that half inch of lowering combined with the bigger wheels makes a good bit of difference in the looks dept. I like the black outline of the stripes as well.
