[QUOTE="93 347 Cobra, post: 15648721, member: 7047"] I'm just speculating here but it seems twins on a V8 presents a packaging nightmare. The development cost difference between a supercharger and twins would be enormous. So that makes it unlikely to begin with. That's before even considering DBK's input, which has been pretty damn clear. Moving along...the GT500 and the modular Cobras before (previous top dog) had a highly unique engine not offered in the GT. This is why the engine for this new GT500 coming in with a Coyote-block with a blower on top might not be an absolute. We all know the Voodoo didn't need a flat plane to rev to 8K but it made for great marketing hype and that's the level to which FP went to differentiate the engine. Which is why I'm still holding out hope for an engine block we haven't seen before in a Mustang. Either way I don't think Ford will disappoint even the deepest of skeptics. I think the power-to-weight ratio will be right there with the Demon. [/QUOTE]
