So assuming this engine can last 4 years then it would undoubtedly show up in the 2014 Mustang, and given the option betwen a 2014 V6 and 2011 5.0 id take the 5.0 haha, just my oppinion at least. I mean its rare two companies will release new engines in rival cars at the same time so its hard to imagine the Mustang releasing a new one just as the Camaro does ya know?

Honestly I don't think any of the BIG 3 will be ditching their V8's. They should only get better with the advances being made. The percentages of V8's sold this year surprised GM and made them take notice. They are paying attention to the market and the market analysis is what drives the decisions for upcoming makes and models.
