no doubt, honestly i can't believe the numbers people get. I don't have the piggy bank for a built short block, so i cant just take a mans word on the matter. I run my cars with all they have, I know going that big right out of the gate will make for some short fun. Down the road it gets more...
but that does reinstate your 800whp claim, so ill buy it. Only from the sideline though
Edit* the biggest advantage to going to a lower compression ratio is (I believe) to advance timing (limit timing retard), not to add more boost. Theres a formula to follow that I believe involved degree...
food for thought, and this is the highest rated stock block capability ive seen so far.

Congrats on the numbers
I've read about 3 stock builds that net over 800whp, the highest one being 930 on e85, they didn't last long. not just mechanical failures, catastrophic failures.
As to your comment on lowering compression, why do they make a 5.0 yote 9.5-1 crate motor for supercharged...
Youre talking two entirely different directions here. They were built well for the initial design. 11.0-1 is high for forced induction. The 5.0 was not designed for such, but clearly can handle it with the right tuning. There's a reason performance parts are out there, it's built well, but you...
I've been looking at numbers on 15 gts just intake and lth/catback on 93. looking like 440-450 wheel. new mani, clean up the heads a bit, be a nice n/a machine if you ask me.
I've heard 750-800 crank limitations on these factory 5.0s. especially if it's going to see the track, which is the plan...
Correct, research with time will tell. I dont foresee a 727hp kit (assuming crank) making what it says. And if you figure 20% drivetrain loss thats high 5s at the wheels if my elementary grade education serves me right. Lol. Im not degrading it, I've been searching for that 500whp number for 4...
I soon found out. especially an ej255. junk. When I was quoted 9 grand just to make the car reliable(ish), plus another 3 grand to get to 500 wheel i lost it. Was looking at ss camaros when this beaut came in on trade. Drove it and it was a no brainer, plus half the cost. Idk i just want to make...
Yes sir, I don't do the heel toe deal, just 5k rev and switch pedals on the left side. Am i the best at it? no, subaru's didnt have this luxury. But yes i can do a burnout just fine. She gets sideways for sure, but for so reason it just shuts down. I've spun her around at the end of the road and...
Im not a big fan of bolting on power adders without making some sort of engine adjustment. i've learned a lot about what works for n/a vs what works for forced induction, yeah itll bolt up, but it doesnt necessarily mesh as well as I'd like it to. Even though its a reliable, cut and dry...
I just bought the muffler delete tailpipes to run for now when I'm headed to car shows and such, but on the fence whether to get high flow cats to dumb it down with the ford performance catback When I go for a set of long tubes. it's fairly loud right now, especially on cold starts.
