Of course you'll have to replace the bushings throughout but that's the name of the game with its equipped cars. Of course everyone is interested what the new mustangs are going to have but what is Chevy going to do to one-up ford?

I doubt they would put a v6 turbo in stang in fear of beating the 5.0 that would just be dumb on there part to that. I think they may offer a SVO version of the I4EB with more power then a stock one but not a 5.0 killing v6.
As for the chevy having to one up the mustang I think in terms of handling it already did and that's why ford has chosen to go back and try irs again to see if they can match not only the performance of the camaro but also the ride quality that comes along with it. Motor wise that's a toss up I like the simplicity of the ls platform but I'm not sure if I can still say that once they release the new di engines but the ls motor has proved itself worthy when it comes to making power,durability and easy to work on. One thing that I want to se is how ford and Chevy are trying to shave off a couple hundred pounds yet ford is doing it while also adding irs.
