Pretty neato lol. Should be quite a fun engine. Only thing I think is retarded is the name change lol. Boss is cool but the reasoning behind it is just dumb. Anyway cant wait to see it.

i don't put a lot of stock in Wikipedia, its a user based site. any one of us can write up a article about anything and upload it.

From everything that I read it definitely is a go. They had started to produce it in '05 but put a halt on it. It will make it's first appearance in the F-150 though.

So then i will most likely be buying a new one in @ 2011-12...i will wait and see what gets released first, probably a 2V version...i will want a 4V version if that is available.

I'll go out on a limb and say let Australia perfect it. They've done some pretty nice things with their Falcons and FPV GTs. They're already putting the new "Boss 302" to use and I'm sure they could pull out all the potential that this supposed new engine has.
