Modular engines 2010 onwards

[ehast13]

I was talking to my cousin (who lives in England) and he was saying the v6 going into the fg falcon from 2010 onwards will also go into the Jaguar. He doesn't work for Jag but one of his mates reckons Ford Aus has been minorly involved with the new v6 and v8 (he reckons 5.0 390hp n/a and 500hp supercharged).

He reckons that ford Aus and Jaguar have the same basic combo of the (285hp)3.7litre(?) six with zf auto and both n/a and supercharged all alloy 5.0 litre 8's with 6sp ZF auto. The s/c v8 will be detuned in the ford application to around 450hp with up to 510hp acheivable while meeting euro v emmisions.

Does this sound plausible or is it too much like chinese whispers?

I'd like to get my hopes up for a 510hp gtho based on a slightly lighter xt spec donor car with lightweight rims, but mates of mates of cousins don't alawys supply 100% accurate info!
