INTERESTING: LS3 (Camaro) V8 vs Ford Boss 315
This is such an interesting article about Ford vs Chevy in the high end muscle car market in Australia. It pits the LS3 equipped Holden HSV vs the Boss 315 5.4 liter equipped Ford FPV. Clearly, Ford can compete and compete well with the Boss engine. Many of the reviewers liked the FPV better. The Ford 5.4 V8 is clearly more advanced with DOHC and more valves. Will this Boss 315 be the engine in the next Mustang? If so, Chevy should be in for an even match. Here is the article:

It will be interesting to see what Roush does with this motor.

I know there have been rumors of the Boss making it into the next Mustang, but I think Ford said they'd be holding off on that for another year or so.
Frankly I wish they would drop it in for the 2010 model; the more competition the better.

wow those are a couple neat cars, why don't we get them in the US, ford seems to be ignoring the 4 door sport/luxury market, and leaving it to merc/bmw/dodge/pontiac/caddy

It will be interesting to see what happens in the near future if Ford does indeed install this motor into the new and supposedly lighter mustang…
