Latest Drivetrain and Horsepower Speculation?

[SID297]

Just wondering what everyone thinks the GT500's drivetrain will be and how much power it will make?

 

[gimmie11s]

Lol. So you want to be entertained?

Aaaaannnnnddddd

There off!!!!

EDIT: suppose is should contribute.

Im sticking with the new Eaton R2650 on top of a coyote-variant motor. Not sure on size but a stroked Coyote to the tune of 5.4 or bigger would be sweet.

750 horsepower.

Transmission?

My bet is Ford will offer a choice of the conventional Tremec 6 speed or the new 10 speed to compete with the Hellcat.


Now, Mr. In-The-Know, the real question is ---- Are you going to give us minions any nuggets of information goodness?

Sworn to secrecy.

That's why we have the super secret section. lol

 

[gimmie11s]

Yep! Its just us 3.

Shhhh. We wont tell..promise!




Alright how about this Travis.

Do you think there will be either official word or reputable second-hand info before 2017 is over?

 

[PaxtonShelby]

Nobody else is watching. Spill the beans...

 

[13COBRA]

735hp, optional 10-speed, supercharged 5.2L.

That I don't know. I wouldn't expect anything before NAIAS.

 

[AustinSN]

809 hp, 10 speed, optional 6 speed

 

[CobraBob]

I'm going with 675hp and the 10-speed auto, with a 6-speed manual as a second choice.

I think from just a pricing standpoint, the manual will be standard. That way they can charge more for the 10-speed, and still have a 'low' "starting at price".

 

[TERMN8U]

750hp,650 tq 10 spd auto.

 

[Clemson]

Its a TT 5.0. will offer the auto trans for the driving glove wearing sissies. 750/700.

There's some interesting guesses in here. I have a feeling that the car will sell very well, but I also think it will strengthen the market for some of the older SVTs.

Quality SVTP's are holding their own price wise.

Manual and a auto seem like a lock. I would be surprised if they F/I the Voodoo, they said N/A it had trouble meeting their NVH goals.

 

[tones_RS3]

I'll guess between 725-745HP and it will be the 5.2 supercharged. (Might feature the new 2018 engine though?)
Transmission choices will be the 6 speed Tremec and 10 speed automatic.

Yeah, I don't know what to believe about that any more. Sometimes I hear that's true and sometimes I hear that's not true.
