"Obeying the 1000-mile break-in period by not revving the engine sky-high took painful restraint. But once we got past it, the GT350 clicked off a zero-to-60-mph time of 4.2 seconds and ran the quarter-mile in 12.4 at 118 mph. At 40,000 miles, it posted identical numbers for both tests.".
My Girlfriend's 1972 VW Beetle with over 200,000 miles didn't burn that much oil.

My cousin has a GT350, the Recaros are a little tight for a fat guy, but the car is a blast to drive and ride in. The sound of the voodoo engine at high rpm’s is unbelievable!!!

I agree 100% with Mr. Joe Walsh,
and I would like to add this 5.2 voodoo is my favorite engine yet, after im done the merc build I have my sights set on a voodoo powered something...
absolutly in love with the gt350 and the voodoo 5.2
I would love to get ahold of a flat plane crank for a 4.6 for that matter.... anyone know anything about it?
Just don't get 2001 Mustang GT seats, AKA the Barcoloungers....feels like sitting on a bar stool
Pardon my ignorance, but when did Motorcraft start making full synthetic oil and can you buy it in stores?

Don't the seats come with the voodoo engine?
I had an 86 country squire with 140k that after 100k used a quart every 500-750 miles. When that car was hit, I took the engine out, mothballed it, and the short block eventually made it into my mustang. Still had the cross hatching and still uses oil.
I think Acura says that a quart every 300 miles is acceptable.
I wouldn't trust a new engine that used that much, but I also wouldn't turn down a free one. I wonder what the oil analysis would reveal if anything?
In response to 1stMerc's question:
I don't know when Motorcraft first offered full synthetic oil, but my 14 GT500 requires the use of 5W-50 full synthetic and the only place I can get it, that I know of, is the Ford dealer. The oil bottle states is produced specifically for the Boss 302, GT500 and the Ford GT.
