Nope, that's the Series I. That one sucked. They ran rough when they were brand new...

The Series II has a purpose-built 60 deg. engine block. Much smoother. Even my NA engine has great torque. My friends look at me funny when I tell them my Granny car ('95 Bonneville) has bigger cylinders than a 5.0 Mustang (albeit only 6 of them...).

Gotcha, 60deg is required to get a v6 to run smoothly. Or if you happen to be volkswagen then you make it very narrow angle and place it in a crap car and people will flock to it cause they think hitler had something to do with it so it must be good...
