Alloy Dave Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 I found this article to be particularly helpful since I've been out of the Mustang game for over 20 years. Most of you probably already know all they say. http://www.answers.com/topic/ford-mustang Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of you probably already know all they say. http://www.answers.com/topic/ford-mustang Dave Terry1234 thanks for finding the article on History of the Mustang......good read....I've been reading some of the post's on the forms concerning the quality of the rods in the 07 Shelby.......check this part in the History of the Mustang below, does it not state that rods are as good as the ones in the Ford GT......?????? Engine: Wet-sumped 5.4 L 500 hp iron block with aluminum heads. Bore x Stroke is 3.552 x 4.165 inches, producing 330 in³ (5,409 cc) displacement. Static compression ratio is 8.4:1 (same as Ford GT, but vs. 8.5:1 on the 2003 Cobras.) Forged steel crankshaft is from the Ford GT. Manleys connecting rods which the engineers claim are on par with the Manleys in the 2003s, but less expensive. Heads are directly from the GT, including cams, valves, springs and ports and even have the same part number. The peak power rating is at 6000 rpm, and redline is at 6250 rpm.

JETSOLVER Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Looks like that bit of wiki needs some editing. The cams are not the same as the GT, and the rods are from Mahle, not Manley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
