If the gap between the performance of last gen's GT350 and GT500 are carried over, then we might see a 1,200 hp, 1,600 Nm, 4,650 lb GT500.

I would argue that the current GT350 is closer to the S550 than the 1960s GT350. The automotive industry as a whole has changed so much in the last 60 years and I would considered the something like Roush or Saleen to be closer to what Shelby was like back in the day. Modern Shelby's are track cars, kind of like Manthey in a way. Saleen and Roush do the whole 'just add power and not much else' thing.
