Here is a great video with the Mustang chief engineer Dave Pericak.

He talks about the new platform and how it is completely new, and that there isn't anything that was carried over from the S197. He stated that there is nothing in common with the old S197 platform other than the wheelbase. I'm really looking forward to hearing more about the chassis/platform and seeing how much it has evolved and far they went with it.
He also stated that the V8 will definitely be more powerful. I don't know about you guy's but I'm super hyped that the GT is going to have a forged bottom end right off the showroom floor. That's freaking awesome! Slap a supercharger on it and go...No more worries about having about having to to get the bottom end built...well, unless you plan on running some serious boost.
Oh and a little more S550 porn...
