I would be Curious to see who's motor this is? I know its not Don Bowles unless its roush's shop in back ground which i doubt. The fastest Don went was 9.0's i believe with that combo and a stick. Btw Don bought all his stuff from ford (enough parts to build 5 motors) and some of you would fall out of your chairs if i told you the price he told me. I am sceptical unless proven other wise that this motor went 8.50's, It is a test mule motor though because of the writing on the block, I am 90% possitive that the production blocks do not say "the boss it back".
Also as soon as i can get one i have a Vista Blue Gt500 shell waiting for a install.
Later Dan
Also the 6.2 Does not share anyparts except maybe the waterpump with the other mod family. Heads r not interchangable from a 4.6 or 5.4 PERIOD. Also as good as the heads are there is not a need for a dohc 6.2 head. Just would be more cost in the build.
This i cant say but you will probably see stuff about it in the near future

You are thinking they would knock each other out like in a forest fire? The environment in a combustion chamber during combustion is completely different. For one thing the pressure is way above atmospheric. For another, there is no fuel to be found once the induction cycle is over, or oxygen. What is in there is all of it. And the fuel air mix is not static, it is swirling like mad thanks to modern designs so you don't have something like two masses of air hitting each other. Then there is the fine atomization and distribution of fuel throughout the chamber that modern fuel injection systems can provide.
When it lights under those conditions, colliding flame fronts knocking each other out is not a problem.

Exactly, 2 flame fronts are acutally a good way to go on a large bore engine. Because of the 2 combustion regions, your combustion durations decrease which allows you to run less timing and still get peak power. This faster combustion leads to less negative work during early portions of combustion. The fast combustion also lowers the knock limit as there is less time for the end gases to wait before the flame gets to them.All in all, it's the way to go. Maybe by the time Im done with school they will have a 6.2 powered stang.

Think for yourself Question authority
Some engines using 2 spark plugs actually fire on different strokes, not both at once. One fires on the exhaust stroke. Doing this burns most of the unburnt fuel... Purely for emissions and has nothing to do with performance or efficiency.
Its a ludicrous idea and Im not saying this is what its for. I think most of the engines doing this were back in the 80s.

You sure you don't mean the "waste spark" firing system? That was not two plugs in one cylinder, that was two plugs in two different cylinders, arranged in a cathode/anode circuit. The one that fired on the exhaust was only to complete the circuit for the one firing for real. That way you only need two coil packs for a V8 engine with an even-firing pattern. The one firing on the exhaust had nothing at all to do with emissions.

Really not sure to be honest with you. I have never researched it and it was before me getting into all of this. I am just going off what I was told (which could be wrong.)
Last I checked Ford was ahead of the game and still is
The competition does not use OHC enginges like the rest of the modern world
This is am ignorant comment. The reason they didnt move to ohc motor is because the ls gets better gas milage and makes more power than the "competition"
But you know what the whirlpool could be? It could be reality itself is tearing, since this is in Norway, where President Obama is being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. They have finally gone and done it, the politicians have made such a radical departure from reality that the universe is ripping apart under the weight of the hypocrisy.
Maybe by the time Im done with school they will have a 6.2 powered stang.
OMG. YES
