I would totally prefer that they bring back the GT390, rather than a Bullitt appearance package (lame).

390 CI is about 6.4L, so you would have to make it a pushrod engine so it can fit. That would be an easy 485HP (that's what the 392 Hemi makes), and you wouldn't have to rev the engine to the moon before you get to the fun part. Just make it all aluminum rather than an iron block (the 392 is iron), and it would be about the same size and weight as the Coyote, only you get torque from beginning to the end of the RPM range.

Then you can sell the GT390 as a trim level, and have an optional Bullitt appearance package on top of that.

Just don't paint mine Eddie Bauer Edition Explorer green, please.
