Cams. That's how. I should amend my GT350 heads comment to GT350 'style' heads. Better flow, bigger valves, same 5.0 chamber size. Those two alone will get you over the 500hp hump. Still gonna be and expensive parts bin car haha.
I wonder if they might use the predator block (or casting) to produce a 5.2 liter? Seems like the cheaper route as they might be able to just amend the coyote heads.
Ford already stated "most capable 5.0 track car ever". So it's gonna be a 5.0. Valve springs I wouldn't worry about. They're RPM limited, not so much lift limited.
Not that I think 525 is very likely to happen, but I don't think I buy this argument for why it won't. Once the GT350 is out of production and sold off dealer lots, Ford has no reason I can think of to prevent any model at any price point from matching or surpassing it. Like any publicly traded company, Ford only cares about the bottom line, and there is nothing "sacred" about a car they don't sell anymore. Nor should there be.
Neither. 2020 GT500 engine is a "Predator".
I am sure it is accurate - it is literally re-print of Ford's press release. Tremec is a nice touch especially with a rev matching but rest is exactly what I thought - few parts thrown in - little more than on PP2.
