ford and GM got together to make the new 6t70's an 6t75's ford just calls it something else. I wouldnt be suprised if the F40 was a joint Ford-GM thing

The big boys have a 5.4L or a Triton V10... which I'm not sure what the displacement is. The F-150 has a 4.6L 2V or 3V depending on the trim.

12.84 is not a well driven time for a C6 Z06.

Triton is just the name of the engine, and honestly, a Z06 is capable of much better times. Mid-High 11s, although a stock Z06 has reportedly ran a 10.9.

True, but that's attributed to driver error. Look, I love Mustangs.. I own one, but you have to give credit where it's due. The Z06 is an incredible machine. 7.0L 505hp naturally aspirated V8, and a total weight of somewhere around 3200lbs = incredible performance. If it was a good driver, I think it would be a different story.

i fully agree... the mustang still beat it... lol... one question though... if ford had a 7.0 liter stang with a block the same size as the vette then the mustang would own them
