### Mustang Boss 302 In the era of classic maslscars, the 4.9-liter “eight” seemed generally the choice of those who are afraid of truly brutal cars. Is it a joke, the first -generation Mustang could be ordered with a seven -liter engine! But Boss 302 does not concern! He would lose the Dreg Betwas of Maslkaru with a hefty V8, but he would smoke it with dust on a winding road. Yes, in front of you is an American car that can turn it!
Ford BOSS 302 was created for SCCA Trans-Am high-ring racing. The maximum permissible volume, according to the regulations – 305.1 cubic inch (5 liters). Hence such a “modest” motor with the declared 294 hp Acceleration to 97 km/h (60 miles/h) in about 6.9 seconds caused a grin at the guys on the “Big-block” versions, but the feature of the “boss”-handling. A modified pendant with a reduced clearance and thick reptile stabilizers regularly did its job. Pay attention to the aerodynamic “Dopa”. Mustang homologation is one of the first serial cars with the front spoiler and at the same time anti -wing on the trunk lid. In the 1969 SCCA TRANS-Am season, the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 teams of the legendary Roger Captain Pensk won, but the next year Ford became the champion.
Ford ### Mustang Mach I Cool Mach I 1969-1970 – not just a modification. Rather, a sort of subbrand and a separate line in the framework of the very first Mustang. Fastbek was offered with options and engines for every taste, starting from the 351st Windsor and Cleveland (5.8 liters) with a two-chamber carburetor and a capacity of 253 hp. Well, to those who wanted to drive in an adult, there was a direct road to the top variations.
Ford Under the hood of the most crazy Mach I is 428 Cobra Jet with a volume of seven liters (340 hp). Super Cobra Jet for drag racing gave out the same amount, but inside it has enhanced components. For a surcharge – the Drag Pack option with two options for the main gear ratio (3.91 or 4.30).
Ford ### Mustang SVO Modern Mustangs are not only with a large V8, but also a 2.3-liter “turbo and fainting” Ecoboost. Incredibly, but the fact: the compact motor with a boost was first used on the pony-kar in the eighties, when American sports cars felt, to put it mildly, not in the best way. Manufacturers thought out and launched turbocharged. So the Buick Grand National, as well as the unique and astronomically expensive Mustang from the SVO unit (Special Vehicle Operations). It cost about 15.5 thousand dollars. More than twice as much as basic Ford and as many as six thousand eight -cylinder GT.
Ford Svo engineering philosophy could shock conservative fans of the model. Instead of V8 – a “bag of juice” with a turbocharger, intercooler (177–208 hp, depending on the year of release). The recoil is comparable to the five -liter GT, the mass is less than 68 kg, and the rulers are clearly better. A special Mustang captivated with a balance and, if you want, intelligence. In addition to the progressive engine, he got the front suspension with altered geometry, disc brakes in a circle, a “short” steering rack and a self -locking differential. From 1984 to 1986, 9844 pieces were built.
Ford ### Mustang SVT Cobra/Cobra R in 1996. The fourth pony-kar iteration (SN-95) switched to the progressive, by American standards of those years, V8 Modular Family. Prior to this, for several years, an old 4.9-liter unit, a legacy of previous generations, was put for several years. Its forced up to 243 hp The version was installed on Mustang Cobra from the SVT (Special Vehicle Team) sports unit. But with a fierce limited Cobra R (250 copies), everything turned out cooler: she was discharged 304-horsepower “Five and eight”. Plus a five -speed mechanical gearbox, sportschass and rejection of numerous benefits of civilization in the name of reducing the mass.
Ford The modernized Cobra used its sophisticated methods in the fight against Chevrolet Camaro Z28 and Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. The latter were equipped with a 5.7-liter lower LT1, and the “poisonous” Ford-V-shaped “eight” with a volume of only 4.6 liters. But with four camshafts and four valves per cylinder. It turned out that advanced technologies are not scary at all! Cobra with its 309 hp, a non -alternative five -stage “mechanics” and overclocking up to a hundred in about six seconds showed worthy resistance to street fighters from General Motors.
Ford ### Mustang SVT Cobra “Terminator” Sportser 2003-2004 with an immodest, but accurate nickname Terminator – the culmination of the development of the fourth Mustang. Two circumstances make it extremely cool. The first is the 396-horsepower V8 from the Modular family with a volume of 4.6 liters with a mechanical supercharger. Similar Fordovsky units with four valves on the cylinder are completely aluminum, but the “heart” of the “terminator” stands apart. He has a cast -iron block for increased loads.
Ford Another feature of SVT COBRA “Terminator” is the rear independent suspension. If anyone is not in the know, the “Mustangs” have been equipped with a beam of the rear axle for centuries. Only in 1999, the SVT sports center first tested a more suitable sports car for Cobra with atmospheric V8, which allows you to confidently ride not only in a straight line. As for the top option with a supercharger, 19,140 compartment and convertibles were produced.
Ford ### Mustang Boss 302 for fans of sophisticated engineering and filigree handling Ford Mustang is like a wild and primitive barbarian. Indeed, a sports car with a beam of the bridge is perceived at least strange. However, the rear dependent suspension is not a sentence at all! Boss 302 from the fifth generation line will not allow to lie. Let’s say more, the presence of such a car in the garage suggests that its owner is a fan of the model and probably knows a lot about fast driving along racing tracks.
Ford The Boss is endowed with a number of nuances changing the nature of the nuances. The five -liter Coyote V8 is forced up to 450 hp. (other camshafts forged crankshaft, porting of the head of the cylinder block). The chassis is ennobled by custom springs, thicker reptile stabilizers and a self -locking Torsen differential. For completely repulsed fans, there is a Boss 302 Laguna Sece Edition (750 pieces, in the photo) without a rear sofa, with additional body strengthening and thin tuning with a suspension. Confirmation of the combat effectiveness of the “archaic monster” is the results on the tracks where it dominated such authorities as the BMW M3 (E92).
Ford ### Mustang Shelby GT500 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is considered the personification of an absolutely crazy “primitive” Maslkar for those who eat meat from the fire and do not know about the existence of a razor. But he is not the only one. Look at the extreme Mustang of the fifth generation from SVT and shudder! The compressor V8 with a volume of 5.4 liters on early performance did not let me get bored, and life with the final compartment and a convertible 2013-2014 definitely resembles a every second, crazy attraction. All thanks to the Trinity motor “five and eight” with a mechanical zealnetel. He develops 671 very wild horsepower, which has to interact with the six -speed “mechanics” and the rear -wheel drive. With a good “hook” sprint up to 97 km/h (60 miles/h) takes less than four seconds.
Ford So that it is not scary to ride truly fast-and Shelby can definitely-large Brembo brakes and interesting options are used. In particular, the Performance package with adjustable shock absorbers Bilstein and the Torsen self -block. Or a set with the talking name Track – radiators of oil cooling in the engine, gearboxes and differential.
Ford ### Mustang Shelby GT350 What is good for the first sixth -iteration sports car? First: finally the rear independent suspension. Second: hitherto with unheard of modifications. One of the most plague is Shelby GT350, which feels on racing tracks at home. The list of miracles opens a 5.2-liter atmospheric of the Voodoo V8 with a “flat” crankshaft and a passion for very high speeds. On peaks 533 hp It comes out at 7500 rpm, although you can twist to 8250 rpm!
Ford The GT350 chassis is supplemented by adaptive Magneride shock absorbers, BreMbo brakes and aerodynamic plumage. Well, the Fans of the Track-Dine offered Shelby GT350R. With tenacle tires Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 on carbon fiber 19-inch wheels, improved aerodynamics, a radiator for cooling oil in the internal combustion engine and without any unnecessary things like air conditioning, acoustic system, rear seats, carpet coating and even resonators in the exhaust system to reduce mass.
Ford ### Mustang Shelby GT500 is not just a very cool Mustang. At the time of its appearance, he was a powerful Ford road car in history and a real outlet for those who considered Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat too uncontrolled and ill -mannered. By the way, the compressor HEMI V8 has a lower -willed Hellket with two valves on a cylinder. While the Mustangov Predator (“Predator”) is 5.2 liters – with four camshafts and a huge mechanical supercharger. Recoil – 771 hp According to the measurements of Car and Driver magazine, up to 97 km/h (60 miles/h) Shelby accelerates in 3.6 seconds. And the merit in this is by no means one engine.
Ford The GT500 is not equipped with a classic “automatic”, but by a seven -speed pre -sequential robotic Tremec box with two clutches, which clicks the programs for 100 milliseconds. Among the external chips of the Supercope is a huge radiator grille. It gives the car an ominous look and increases the air flow to the radiators and the engine compartment by 50% compared to Shelby GT350.
Ford ### Mustang GTD, the Americans have long dreamed of going through a dangerous and complex Nyurgurging racing highway on a domestic car in less than seven minutes. Alas, the great goal was not mastered by Viper and Corvette, but it reached … Mustang (6 minutes 57.685 seconds). True, it is very unusual-it is globally different from the standard fastback and is the powerful road pony car “Ford” in history. Compressor V8 with a volume of 5.2 liters will fall to 826 hp. And 900 Nm!
Ford Silushka is far from the only reason for admiration. The scale of engineering study and bold rethinking of the entire structure is striking. So, for example, the “eight” received a lubrication system with a dry crankcase and is aggregated with a pre -sequential eight -speed “robot” assigned to the rear axle. Plus, adjustable Multimatic shock absorbers, rear suspension of the Push-ROD type, carbon-ceramic brakes and active aerodynamics. It is clear that GTD is a special purpose of a special purpose with an astronomical price tag. In the States, they ask for him from 325 thousand dollars! With this amazing fact, we will finish the selection. And for the fact that you are valued to the last slide, a bonus from us: [вот здесь](https://motor.ru/fhed/ford/mustang?type=topic_type&slug=article) You will find some interesting articles about the history of the mustang.

It is just right to write an encyclopedia with the smallest details about Mustang. Once we will certainly do this, but for now we bring to your attention several particularly interesting and inspiring modifications in the history of Pony-Kar. Connoisseurs and fans will say, they say, this is not all cool mustangs. We agree, but you also admit – true diamonds appear in the review! The legendary Shelby, to which the racer and designer Carroll Shelby had a hand, we deliberately take out the brackets. They require a separate thorough material.
