If GM and Ford were working on mid engine cars, would we have seen a mule or two running around my now? Especially with Ford supposedly returning to Le Mans next year.



Ford has always been willing to build special engines for the Mustang. The blown 4.6 in the Terminators, the 5.4 in the Cobra R, the 302 Roadrunner in the BOSS and now the 5.2 Voodoo.

The only comparable engine from the Camaro, if not GM as a whole, would be the LS7 and maybe LS9.
Well, NAIAS is right around the corner, we'll see what's up.

Mules get disguised well and it's possible Ford dropped a drive line into the existing GT. Aero/body being developed in wind tunnel still.

I can't wait to see Ford's flat plane in action. I'd also like the Z/28 go the same way, get even closer to a race engine.
