    the new mustang is a technological nightmare though. The ford powerplant is using everything that every engine manufacturer had discovered that makes power all under one roof. GM still is running a simple 2 valve pushrod V8 and is still making their 4 valve direct port injected engines nervous. Hell, my little HHR has the potential to have 300HP from the factory 2L turbo engine with nothing more than the factory Stage kit. GM needs to give us some more power options such as the direct port injection. I'm not too sure how I'm going to like 1000+ lb fuel pressure though.

    i have a direct port injected GM v8 and 1000psi fuel psi is lame its all about the 25,000psi that im running

    i saw something somewhere about gm swaping to a 5.4l or a 5.5l in the lamans car (direct injected and way more efficent than the ls and i think its still ls bassed and has pushrods) and seeing as thats where the ls1 came from....
