Looks like the Saleen may be going bye bye in order to get a 2013 GT500.

Wow, what size blower will the aftermarket come up with for the 5.8? Or a 5.8 TT, hell yeah!

I'm assuming he means that they will be cheaper to pick up since he wants one.

 

[topbliss]

[Mike K]

That's the way it sounds but I haven't seen anything to officially back it up.

read closer. that was speculation. Its gonig to be a regular eaton S/C'd 5.8L which is still amazing

Is it just going to be an old 5.4 bored or stroked out to 5.8? More cubes is good sure, but its still the same old block thats been used forever.
