In fact, that's more horsepower than the 4.6-liter V8 Mustang made just a few years ago. While the 305-horse figure only allows the Mustang to pip the crosstown Camaro by a single all-important stallion in the pony car bragging wars, Ford says the powertrain will be good for 30 miles-per-gallon on the highway when paired with its new six-speed automatic, also one notch better than the Chevy.
Wow, I'd actually consider a V6 now...Love these numbers for the V6 as I would assume this means some good things for the GT. Camaro/Chally who? B)

Probably a tweaked version of the Lincoln Duratec 37 ... which means that bolting up the twin turbo 3.5 could be an easy option too ... very interesting.
