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.
  • 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.

Exterior

  • Pony on grill is centered in a blacked out coral instead of chrome.
  • Does not come with a spoiler.
  • Brushed aluminum gas filler door.
