You guys aren't alone... I exhausted myself with building my 09 and that's why I haven't done much to my convertible. I did wheels and suspension but power wise it's fine with a tune. I like to set it and forget it.

Doesn't seem as awesome as I originally hoped. I bet a GT350 with a Track Pack, Tech Pack and electronics pack will be almost $60k. I've also read the 5.2 is not going to be boost friendly at all being high compression and already pushing tge limits of its internals.

Why in the hell would you want to boost this engine?

I do.. it will be the same BS hype before the 15s...

over 420hp but made it sound by allot. they have to do the 500 because they said so but watch.. it will be 515 and cost too much.. will it even beat a 450hp 2015 YELLOW vett????

Oh I would say so.

However, I would think after the issues people had with the 5.0 factory coolers, that people may end up replacing those coolers anyways. Maybe Ford improved on the 5.2 coolers? Who knows?

I sure hope they did! I'm still undecided on whether I will be keeping the Boss oil cooler to use in conjunction with a Setrab piece I will be putting together or just eliminate it completely.

SOLD!!! GT350R vin 001 you get to pick up the car and keys from Mark Field's in person at Ford World Headquarters. All the money went to the JDRF charity as Ford has done many times in the past.

Yeah I have been watching for a few hours also. Did you see that 65 cobra 1 of 2, that had the cross ram with twin superchargers? Didn't sell at $4.7 million as it was till on reserve? And the black Boss 429 that sold for $500K? A couple of really nice 67 GT500s and 68 GT500 KRs? Some really nice cars. And those 2005/2006 Ford GTs are selling for a lot. Especially the one in the Gulp colors.

Dude...that 001 GT that went for over half a mil! Yeah Ron Pratte paid 5 mil for that 66 427 Super Snake. It was 1 of 2 now the ONLY 1 bc the 2nd was crashed after Bill Cosby sold it they said. So I'm guessing Pratte had the reserve north of what he paid for it. A lot of nice Mustangs tonight. Most were that guy Ron Prattes too.
