[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 15699928, member: 20202"] Sid knows more then he's leading us to believe he just likes watching us squirm. If the S550 GT500 ever makes it to the production floor it will likely be a V8 with 100mm bore spacing and have to resort to twin turbos if it wants to run with the pack. That's going to take that motor to the limit on pump gas. Ford needs to overcome lag but allow enough boost to make 800 hp which can be in conflict with one another. I think most car buyers will be looking for stump pulling low end torque and "on-demand" power out of the GT500 not a sudden onslaught of horsepower when the clock strikes 3500. This car has to compete with Chrysler and GM who are running big PD blown engines which is what this car should be running as well and there is almost "zero" chances of that happening. I'm still munching on my popcorn waiting to see how this movie turns out. [/QUOTE]
