Engine and transmission modifications
- The new cast aluminum intake manifold has an increased runner
diameter to maintain low-end torque and provide a broader power
curve for increased top-end performance.
- A twin 57mm-bore throttle body replaces the GT 65 mm throttle
body, allowing for quicker throttle response and increased peak
flow.
- To reduce parasitic losses, the alternator pulley was increased to
66 mm and the water pump pulley was increased to 140 mm.
- The exhaust system has been retuned to increase flow approximately
20% and give the Bullitt a new distinct sound.
- The exhaust system has been retuned to increase flow approximately
20% and give the Bullitt a new distinct sound.
- All Mustang Bullitts will have the new TR3650 transmission and
clutch assembly that provides improved shift quality. A new 11-inch
flywheel and clutch assembly have been added to increase torque
capacity and reduce clutch pedal efforts.
