2011 Mustang - Ford's New 5-liter The It's no longer a pipe dream for true Ford enthusiasts--Ford has brought back the 5-liter. It will make its debut in what is most likely the greatest Mustang GT to date, the 2011. Yes it's real, and yes it's awesome. Rumor mill called for a 5.0L DOHC powerplant pumping out 405 hp. What we got was an all-new, all-aluminum 5.0L DOHC powerplant pumping out 412 hp at 6,500 rpm and 390 lb-ft of torque at 4,250 rpm. This new engine is just full of surprises. From an eight-quart oil pan with a built-in windage tray, to Ti VCT, which will no doubt become a part of our vocabulary very quickly, the new engine is nothing short of an engineering wonder. Ti VCT, or Twin Independent Variable Camshaft Timing is self-explanatory. The really great thing about it is its ability to change intake/exhaust overlap, and do it very quickly. Overlap is adjustable from 81 to 131 degrees, allowing for a Terminator-like torque curve. It's over 100 percent efficient from 3,750 rpm to 6,500 rpm, and max engine speed it limited to 7,000 rpm. Full Story.

2011 Ford Police Interceptor On The Way 11-16-09: Ford has said that their future RWD replacement program for the aged Crown Victoria was cancelled. This was punctuated when the new 2010 Taurus launched and was said to be Ford’s new “flagship” sedan. That is great for showrooms, but what about the cops? They depend on the good ‘ol Crown Vic because it's tough, simple and cheap. Earlier this year, Ford announced that the Crown Vic would end production in 2011 for good, with no rear wheel drive replacement. At a law enforcement presentation Ford recently showed the assembled police representatives the new Taurus and hoped they would be wowed. Since then, they have been conversing with law enforcement agencies to get their thoughts on what they should offer to replace the Crown Victoria Full Story.
