[QUOTE="biminiLX, post: 16316459, member: 7795"] ‘19-20 GT350/GT350 has the boost ready block, simply add a Whipple or Hellion TT. Look, I also love manual trans. But if you’re honest you’ll admit there are significant compromises Ford would have to make to make a manual trans and clutch live with 760hp and 4100#. And after that, with testing it’ll get smoked by the DCT in every performance measure. Ford was after the best performance possible and the DCT was the right choice. How’s the ZL1 1LE selling? Manual Hellcat? I haven’t even mentioned the cost, and that was probably the biggest constraint within the budget of getting the car done/approved. I’m pretty confident they’ll make the 350/500 as long as the S550 continues, and if the next gen Mustang is delayed, you might see a manual trans GT500, but I wouldn’t hold your breath. In the mean time, either keep contacting Ford with support for a manual GT500, buy and boost a 350, or just go drive a DCT GT500 and see if you like it. -J [/QUOTE]
