I would love it if Ford did this

GT500 = 725 hp (EcoBoost 5.2L V8 cross plane crank)
GT350 = 540 hp (with expected power bump in 2018)
Mach 1 = 500 hp (with similar TQ #'s to HP from N/A 5.2L cross plane crank)
GT = 470 hp
EcoBoost = 350 hp

Mach 1 would be competitors with Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack
