come to think of it, they should have used this engine in the GT. it's a V10 (viper) 427cu (retro) and has more power than the supercharged 5.4L V8. its also all aluminum, so i wouldnt suprised if it weighed less than the superchraged 5.4L

hehhe comparing concept engines to production ones now?

While it might be a concept engine, its made from engines that are made today. They only added a few new things to this engine. This is way different than an all new concept engine. The modular engine line could very well produce such an engine.
