    2011 Mustang 5.0/412HP

    Confirmed: 2011 Ford Mustang GT to offer 412-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 — Autoblog

    Thanks to a loose-lipped Facebookian that couldn't help sharing insider information and a quick follow-up post from Inside Line, we can now confirm the return of the iconic 5.0-liter Mustang GT for 2011. Even better news is the fact that the Mustang GT's new mill will crank out an impressive 412 horsepower.

    By way of comparison, the 2010 Chevy Camaro SS has a 6.2-liter V8 with as much as 422 horses when mated to a six-speed manual and the 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT8 has a 6.1-liter Hemi that offers 425 ponies. And remember, both of those rivals are considerably heavier than the Mustang.

    As much as we'd like to unload more goods on the 2011 Mustang, you'll just have to wait until Ford's good and ready. Or someone blows another embargo, whichever comes first.




    EDIT: More specs are now available the "embargo" has been lifted. Ford actually got their heads out of there butts far enough to build an impressive GT.
    Return of the King


    The curb weight is not set in stone yet it's just an estimate as of now. I hope if doesn't get that heavy.

    I think the auto is 6 speed and stick is still 5 speed. But we will see, it makes more power then the 03/04 cobra's on boost. DOHC 5.0 is awesome and proving to make good power. I'm hoping it has a good power band (broad).

    lol a lot of 5.0 guys are hoping for the same.

    Good condition termi's are holding there value, but from what I'm hearing this is suppose to be the best GT ever produced (as per Chris Ihara owner of corral.net). He won't say much more since he is not allowed too but he does have inside info via Ford.

    My terminator dyno'd at 380rwhp/373 rwtrq when it was stock...lets not jump to conclusions until we see this stang on the dyno . My terminator is now pushing over 600bhp with a ported factory blower.

My terminator is now pushing over 600bhp with a ported factory blower, cant seem to find a better car for the money/performance yet. I would love to see the new 5.0 with a six-speed manual and slap a whipple on it.
