Slightly detuned?
Models:
Base V6 (210 hp) ~$20K
Base GT (300 hp) ~$26K
Shelby GT (325 hp) ~$29K
Bullitt (?hp) $?
Boss (~430 hp) $?
Shelby GT500 (500 hp) $40K
Hmm...so there has to be a price increase on both, but cannot exceed the $40K out the door price of the Cobra.
Ok, now that cards are being show on Ford's side. Here's a follow-up on the Hurricane engine which was renamed to Boss due to Hurricane Katrina.

It states that the engine packs 340-500hp(I'm guessing that's where the "tuning" comes into play). So now a bar has been set by Ford, how will the others respond?
Remember, if all is true a 340hp version will be in GTs in 2008. LS2 Baby!
