I understand there is issues with getting this car on the road and the required regulations along with engineering, but all I'm saying is that this would be a glorious send-off for the Falcon considering the original 5.8 was in a Ford not an FPV. I'm not so naive to think that this is any chance of happening, but I'd like to see Ford do something unique for the consumer to see the end of an icon.

It uses a 115mm bore spacing (Modular is 100mm) and the 6.2L Bore is 4.02" compared to Modular 3.552"..... the 6.2L only has a 3.74" throw crank compared to the 5.4L Mod's 4.165"

I said the 6.2 was close to the 351 (not modular), as in bore size, and a little bit longer stroke than the 351. 351 has 4'' bore x 3.5'' stroke. The 6.2 has a 4'' bore with a 3.75'' stroke.
