2005 Ford Mustang Racecar Prototype

"The Mustang is at the core of Ford Racing Performance Parts’ business, from simple bolt-on upgrades all the way to complete crate engine assemblies," said Dan Davis, director of Ford Racing Technology. "We’re very excited to see the 2005 Mustang hit the road and we’re working on having a variety of performance parts ready for all those enthusiasts out there that will drive straight from the dealership to their garage for installation."

The Mustang represents a huge opportunity for performance parts development. The Mustang has been integral to the Ford Racing Performance Parts business, and has delivered many of the parts that are currently featured in the catalog, such as the 5.0-liter small block V-8. It has also been the impetus for continued engine development, such as the new 5.0-liter Cammer V-8 based on Ford’s MOD engine family.

Ford Racing has embarked on an aggressive development program for the 2005 Ford Mustang to evaluate all areas of the vehicle for performance upgrades. The initial target for parts will be bolt-on items that will produce more engine power as well as parts that will provide visual distinction from an "off-the-showroom" floor model.
