I read the article while I was in Barnes & Noble. The HR crew was there while Ford was doing some of their engine certification. Dyno sheets show 650HP at 6250RPM and 670HP at the redline of 7000RPM. Over 500 Lb. of torque was available at 2000RPM. It certainly sounds like a very strong motor. The question is can the GT500 get it to the ground and use it effectively without the tires going up in smoke?
