To be honest, I don't know the hp ratings in the V6 model of the Mustang. I'm sure GM will beat them out. So has begun the waiting game...

When I was quoting, I believe Casull stated he wanted a V8 with at least 300, and I'm saying that bar is too low.
I wasn't concerned with the V6(Mustang is 210 BTW), the Infiniti reference was to put things in perspective:
Infiniti G35(V6): 306hp
Mustang GT(V8): 300hp
I know the Mustang and G35 aren't direct competitors, but that same engine will probably end up in a Nissan Z(which is in the ballpark of a Stang GT).
