I agree with you as far as the performance parts, and I think eventually they will offer more in that area. I don't agree that Ford can just add 50 hp to the Mustang though, look at what they had to do to create the Boss with 440 hp, that is a significantly more expensive engine and only has 28 more hp, and all they really did was move the power higher in the rpm band. I'm not really knocking the 5.0, it is just in a much higher state of tune than the LS3 already.
