The last Aussie built Falcon, just wouldnt be the same if a Mustang came over sporting GT351 badges.....Id still love to see a true 351 in there. Not necessarily a Cleveland or Windsor, but a stroked 302 Coyote maybe? im just throwing ideas around. That would make it truly fitting, a proper 351 cubic inch engine. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/87809-ford-to-revive-gt-351-badge/#findComment-1461265 Share on other sites More sharing options...

XtRmn8 570Nm @1800rpm Donating Members 2,441 Member For: 21y 8m 30d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 22/03/14 10:03 AM Share Posted 22/03/14 10:03 AM If they do bring back the 351 badge for the final build, it will have nothing to do with engine capacity.Based on dyno figures the "335kw" V8s make close to that figure at the wheels.They can update the stickers to say "Boss 351" and they would still be understating the actual flywheel output of the engine.I think if they are going to do it, they may as well quote the actual flywheel power and put "Boss 402" on them instead. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/87809-ford-to-revive-gt-351-badge/#findComment-1461328 Share on other sites More sharing options...
