So, is there a dedicated job title for someone who develops Belt Routing designs?

nah, that's a 5.4 Boss in there I think. Now that it's all alloy it's basically the Ford GT engine I believe?
There was a thread down in the FPV forums about it. Probably best to either link to that or merge the threads. But it is confusing that they're keeping the Aluminium Boss 5.4 for the GT500, and using the Coyote for the rest of the range. Even then I'm not sure what the S/C Coyote is doing. Maybe it won't be making an appearance until the US 2012 model range in 2011? Lukeyson

Hmmm, always wishing it was something else... why not the 6.2 with an alloy block? So much more potential than the five-four.

Spray bore huh?
Even the Coyote didnt get that, blows me away that the 2011 GT500 has had so much development cost thrown at it when it appears that the 5.4L will only be around a few more years. Or will it????? Daniel |

2011 GT500 is the ultimate in my View, add the Super Snake package with the less weight over the front should be good all round on the track. |
