The Timberline looks pretty sweet, but I can’t for the life of me figure out why they refuse to offer the Gen 3 F150 Coyote in this platform.

I’m really interested in that SLA setup. Obviously there are other systems on the market, but I love that it pushed the front wheels forward for better balance, while still retaining the factory strut towers. it’s a very clever setup and I’m strongly considering duplicating it in my old IRS...

I guess they figured it was built strong enough to handle the loads from the coilovers. I also noticed, these cars had no subframe connectors or strut tower bracing, though I feel they could have benefitted greatly from both.

Here's a picture of the coilover. Interesting how they made it fit into the stock tower.

Speaking of different body panels - I'm not even sure the white car had the altered wheelbase, considering the front edge of the wheel well and flare. The hood is clearly a standard piece as well.

Here's a few more shots of this beast. It's hard to find any pictures of decent quality.

edit: I can’t even forum.

It was a great looking car, even with that crazy front bumper. It’s what the New Edge Cobra could/should have been.

Indeed. Sorry if this isn’t in the right section. Maybe it should be in 99-04 Cobras?

Couple more pictures for funsies.

Anybody remember the FR500 Mustang from 21 years ago? I do. Man I’ve never felt so old... It was Ford’s skunk works car meant to test out a bunch of new parts for the Ford Racing catalog including a dual-x dynamic exhaust system, magnesium variable runner intake manifold and various other go...

Sounds like you know something we don’t ...

Oh man why do I want this motor so bad... Dying for final HP/TQ figures. Anyone know outside dimensions yet?

I have a really hard time seeing this as a step in the right direction. I mean sure, it makes sense from a manufacturers standpoint to create a simplistic single cam engine for industrial applications, but I don't see this motor ever being used for any car platform or performance application...

Just the platform - not the car. No one in their right mind would want an actual four door mustang :rolleyes:
