The guys over at Classic Recreations have just outfitted a Shelby Mustang with an EcoBoost engine. Does that get your blood pumping?

What if I told you that they did it to 2 different models: 1966 GT350CR and 1967 GT500CR Shelby Mustang recreations?

Classic Recreations used different engines here, the 2.0-liter, four cylinder Ecoboost, and the 3.5-liter, twin turbo Ecoboost from the F150.

That 3.5-liter V6 produces 365 horses and 420 lb-ft of torque, and weighs significantly less than the V8.

For more info, read this article from AutoEvolution.

What a shame they can put the Shelby name on those. A guy here on the island talks his CR 350 up as if it's the real deal, ugh.

The new Ford GT uses a variation of the V6 twin turbo ecoboost and the new Raptor will as well. With the proper tune, there is a ton of power you can get out of the motors.

With a few bolt ons and a tune we are getting 480 rwhp in the f150 3.5l twin turbo.
We also have a 2012 SHO we are doing a complete build on, that 3.5l should make close to 700rwhp in a 3.5l twin turbo.
