Autoweek reveals more details on 5.0 powered 2011 Ford Mustang

After yesterday's not so surprising information that the 2011 Ford Mustang would indeed pack an available "Coyote" 5.0 V8 packing 412 hp, today Autoweek has revealed a few more details about the new mill.
To go along with that 412hp, the new 5.0 puts out 390 lb-ft of torque at 6,500 rpm. It also gets a thrifty 25 miles per gallon, reportedly. It accomplished this feat thanks to an aluminum engine block with cast cylinder sleeves and brand-new heads with four valves per cylinder, vertical intake ports and twin independent variable valve timing. The engine also features tuned exhaust headers, a forged steel crankshaft with four-bolt main bearings and new pistons and connecting rods.

Transmission options include either the 6R80 automatic transmission or the MT82 six-speed manual.
