Mileage!? A police dept drives the shit out of their patrol cars and puts shit oil in them, they get retired at 135k. Then they are sold at auction, painted yellow for habib to drive the shit out of it for another ~100k....
Inefficient!? 281" making 320hp or a 342" (ls1) making..... Whatever they make lol
bottom line is. The new mustang will have a better power to weight than all of it's competion, which is a first. And hey! Born again chevy boy, why are you talking about plastic engine covers!? Lol
The almighty LS6 put out 405hp or 385 if you have an 01'. Ford did it with 302" not a 342". I'll say with a intake setup some exhaust mods and a tune the new GT will eat a GT500. Or is that just me. Lol this new 5.0 has nitrous written all over it with it's high compression!!!!

and when i said inefficient i was more referring to mpgs.
you talk about the cop cars and taxi's getting that many miles out of the engine.i can only think of a couple modded mod motor mustangs that have been able to last most of you guys are on 2nd or 3rd rebuild.you see ls1 catfishes and firechickens going 200k miles while having mods and running a 150 shot for years.

A zo would be fun. It will be a sad day the day I let the cobra go. Having head issues right now, I've got a set of 03's that are going to Don as soon as I'm done with them. They're getting new and not stock EVERYTHING lol then the blower goes on. Should be a good summer....
