Yeah, and now we're talking about a 3400# slug with 20-30 hp less than an
LS1 and still isn't AWD. Plus, we all know the Mustang's front suspension
is its biggest handling shortcoming. Who was it (Kenny Brown maybe?) that
said Ford should have skipped the IRS on the Cobra and instead designed a
SLA (Short/Long Arm) front suspenion instead?
