I also came across this information. Apparently the Predator will be the only 5.2L motor in not too distant future. I will miss the sound of the Voodoo, but the Coyote sounds good too. I think the biggest bright side will be improved reliability of the 5.0 vs the Voodoo.

And another article stipulating even more power and placement between GT and GT500, further adding to the idea that GT350 will be retired soon. It also mentions Tremec 3160 as the trans. So 6 speed manual FTW!

"The last Mustang Mach 1 produced in 2004 slotted in between the Mustang GT and Mustang Cobra, so expect the new model to slot in between the Mustang GT and the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. The latter is the most powerful street-legal Mustang ever made with 760 hp and 429 lb-ft of torque on tap, so we expect the new Mach 1 will deliver around 500-600 horsepower. The Mach 1 is one of the most beloved Mustangs, so enthusiasts will be thrilled if it makes a comeback."

They got the TQ of the GT500 wrong, but still interesting.

Hopefully it keeps the GT350's EPS, as it has a lot more feel than the regular Mustang's.
