Why did Ford only make this car with a 5 speed manual, no 6 speed stick?

With that much torque you don't need a 6 speed.

Check out http://www.mocgb.net/ Mustang Users Club Of Great Britain. They can give you a good referral.

I understand that aspect of it, really with 325 lb/ft of torque, you only need 4 speeds. How 'bout a nice, tall 6th gear for some better fuel economy? It wouldn't hurt the car's performance at all.

If you notice, the powertrains are all carryovers this year. They get new engines (and probably transmissions to go with them) next year.

What kind of engines/horsepower numbers are speculated? Are they moving to a 4 valve per cylinder design?

The 4.0L V6 almost certainly gets replaced by the 3.5 or 3.7 Duratec (~270 hp and torque) and the 4.6L V8 gets replaced by a new 5.0L V8 putting out in the neighborhood of 350 hp/400 lb-ft according to the rumors. Ecoboost versions of both are also rumored.
