I think factoring those might be as bad as NHRA tring to factor Rick Hord's old Mazda. Everytime they hit him,he just turned up the wick a little more.

Troy,
Its the reservoir for the factory intercooler. The 2008 was made of plastic, 2010's look as if they are getting a fabricated aluminum piece. You can see it still has the factory cap on it. Ford is trying to clean up the engine compartment, aiding in a some what easier tear down. |

Well I guess the era of the Hemi and Corvette/Camaro dominating SS/AA and SS/BA has ended.
If I recall correctly, I read that these all aluminum motors in the '10's will be rated at 475. If my math is correct, that has them weighing 3257 in SS/BA. Rated less than the 427's but will make more power than the Race Hemi and has 40 years advancements in aerodynamics working in it's favor....think it'll be fast? Youtube Video:

Very nice presentation by Mr. Wolfe. I thought the 2008 car was well thought out, but for a factory built car this is beyond my expectations. All brand prejudice aside, there are some really good things happening at Ford Motor Company. I just hope more of these cars are raced than are stored in museums.

Hey, there is some deep thinking. Like I've never seen two guys split the money at a big cash race before one lays down.
