[QUOTE="ExTurbo, post: 13714823, member: 53275"] i dont pretend to know whats going on, but being a reasonably smart guy id imagine the trinity motor wont make it to the S550, new car, new dimensions...the hood is lower on this car and clearance might start to become an issue. Packaging options expand with turbo's :) Id say based on what ford is doing with the rest of the lineup, turbocharging some form of that motor is highly likely. I sell fords (no that doesnt give me the inside scoop any more than any of you gentlemen/ladies) however my new product trainer has mentioned seeing a twin turbo V8 in testing. how reliable that information is, you guys will have to decide for yourself. details are none and no i have no proof, but i dont think hed have a reason to lie about what he sees when hes in Michigan. As for the mach 1, i think a slight bump in displacement, revised intake manifold for high rpm operation, (seriously doubt if they just slap on a CJ,) and forged internals. not to mention new cam profiles to take advantage of the extra RPM and displacement. I dont think ford really needs to do anything else to a 5.0 to make it competitive with other "track" rats like the Z/28. If they can keep the weight down that is. Id also like to see something comparable to GMs magnetic ride shocks, but maybe thats asking too much. Really they can go a million different directions, we will have to wait and see unfortunately [/QUOTE]
