Its alittle porky at 3900lbs but they mentioned 550hp so provided a link they do make it.
If concerned on weight then will have to upgrade to 750hp kit for the 2010 model
as its not for the 2007-2009

The oil company I work for is into Fords. They have a nice custom 48 F1 pickup. The recently got into Mustangs. Having a GT500 converted to a Shelby SuperSnake and putting the 500 parts on a GT the owner drives to make is a sleeper GT 500. Told me I should sell my GTS and get a Mustang. I have no idea why I would want to do that. I typically beat a Super Snake at our local Porsche Club Autocross, and my GTS is a LOT more cumfy on trips.

On paper you would think old 5.0L mustangs would do quite well in lemons...but just like the camaros they don't.......they tend to blow up....I'm not sure how, since the V8olvo has a mustang driveline...but it does tend to eat transmissions too...

I'd rather have the GTS also.
Your car looks great!
