About 130lbs lol.

Apples to apples it was ~130lbs heavier. The CG however should be a fair bit lower though in the 7.3L.

Agreed. Hell, it's going to replace 351w/stroker swaps as well.

1100 hp and 1036+ lb ft on a stock engine (upgraded injectors) and 15psi. Not too shabby. https://www.thedrive.com/news/38149/fords-7-3l-godzilla-v8-can-make-1100-hp-with-twin-turbos-and-little-else?fbclid=IwAR3RMM-cyRzShp614q1nQ863B6B2m7Njif5eMAChKeZ9DZP5gsznDS4zQgw

It would handle better than a coyote with a blower....same weight but a lower CG. An all aluminum block 7.3L could handle wonderfully....possibly better than a coyote as it too would have a lower CG.

Lol....that's quite telling actually. What I read from this is...they don't want to be caught in a lie...so their answer is "no comment". Sounds like that union rep misspoke alright...and outed a future mustang engine platform. Good think he's a union rep...else he'd be out of a job lol.

I can't help myself lol. I'm thinking that stage 2 NA is going to be sick.

More interesting dyno results. 100HP gain with mild head work (stock valves and springs) and cam. 190HP gain with intake, mild head work (stock valves and springs) and upgraded CAM. According to his post, these results should be able to be improved upon as well.

Here is someone swapping a 7.3l into a s197 that currently has a coyote with a cracked block.

Palm Beach Dyno is putting one in their 2005 mustang. Side notes, OBR already has and aftermarket ECU and harness for the Godzilla. Palm Beach Dyno will be offering a swap kit for S197 owners once they get their swap down.

Another video... Says stock shortblock should be good for 800-900hp. His current cam is running 0.900 inch lift on ported stock casting. :shock:

Funny thing is, he's running it up to 8500 RPM with the supercharger. They stopped at 7600 RPM because the stock injectors were maxed out.

So it's a 130lb boat anchor vs 130lb lead weight.

Maybe a touch :)

You know what, you're right. You have far more insight into the new 7.3L engine than Brian Wolfe (was involved with Godzilla and was the director of Ford Racing Technology) who will be using the stock oiling system for 1800hp. I have no idea why I ever doubted you.
