I dont think they will drop the current Mod Motors. Everyone says the chassis is to small and light to accomadate the Mod Engine and transmission. That may be true, BUT......

Why has ford used heavier materials in the Dew "Lite" chassis, and Widened it considerably from the T-Bird and Lincoln LS chassis. To me, it only makes sense that that was done to make room for the Mod motor and tranny.

Ford has to much riding on the 4.6 to take it out of the Mustang. The Mustang is where the 4.6 Ford gets its advertising for the realability and strength of the Mod Motors.

There are several diffrent sources and theroies running around on the next Gen Mustang, I guess We'll have to wait and see who is right.

I've been wrong alot before, but I'm willing to bet money that they keep the mod motor, and go with a 5 Liter displacement for it in either 2004, or 2005 as standard. We might see some big guns and bullets flying when and if the Camaro comes back out.
