5.2L Ti-VCT V8 FPC
SHELBY GT350
®
Starting with the most potent of them all – the head-turning, heart­pounding, Shelby GT350. Car and Driver summed it up perfectly when they awarded the Shelby® GT350/GT350R a spot on their esteemed list of 2016 10Best Cars: “It’s not like any other car, period.”
526 hp @ 7,500 rpm 429 lb.-ft. of torque @ 4,750 rpm TREMEC® TR-3160 6-speed manual transmission
This race-tuned monster is powered by a hand-assembled 5.2L Ti-VCT V8 with a Flat-Plane Crank (FPC), the type more often found in exotic sports cars and racers. It’s the most powerful naturally aspirated road-going engine in Ford history. With a redline of 8,250 rpm, it’s also our highest-revving production V8 yet. And the exhaust note is sublime.
To achieve its balance of downforce and drag, every aspect of the GT350 exterior was scrutinized. From its aggressive front splitter to its vented aluminum front fenders and hood, all the way back to its rear spoiler, fascia and integrated diffuser, every element is designed to work as part of a unified team – and help you stay glued to the road.

Our fastest and best-handling GT yet – this generation speaks for itself. In a wickedly deep-throated
5.0L rumble. It also pulls 0.98 lateral g3 thanks in part to its fully independent suspension. The system has nearly 10x better anti-lift properties than the one it replaced, providing significantly better pitch control for aggressive starts and stops. As M otor Tre nd said, “… Mustang GT is the whole package, with an exhaust that’s muscular when exercised, a controlled ride, and an interior you don’t have to make excuses for.”

Going way beyond good looks, those vertical slots at the outer edges of the front fascia are wheel aero curtains – specifically designed to create a high-pressure region that holds airflow closer to the body and minimizes drag. One of the many telltale signs that every Mustang is built for speed.
