What's the highest HP attainable without going forced induction?

My friend sent me this video of a mustang supposedly making 850 HP while staying NA.

Seems like he's talking out of his ass but my friend said it's feasible.

I'm pretty sure he was talking about the BMW having 850 HP not the Mustang and I don't see how it is possible to get that kind of HP NA on the Coyote... Getting close to 600 crank HP NA would be pushing it imo...

850 hp NA won't happen on NA 5.0 motor save for on nitro methane maybe) Huge cubes and extreme compression ratio needed with exotic race fuel. 600whp is the record as far as I know and that was on FTW purple race fuel. It made about 560whp on E-85.

Must've done a built 427 side oiler swap for the Mustang to have 850hp NA.

03:29 - "If you are wondering why this car is so loud, it's because it has 850hp". They are in the BMW when he says that, not a Mustang.

On 93 octane, what kind of HP is attainable? Safely of course...

I am going to be going for a NA bolt on with cams and I am hoping to reliably make 500whp.

Ehh... 850 is possible... if F1 can drag 700-800 out of a 2.4L on 93 octane someone can build a coyote that high... BUT they would have to completely re-engineer the head, use pneumatic springs, lighten the rotating assembly and setup a super short stroke while boring it to the limit and then spin it to 12k-15k. But then it would probably blow up in 1k miles.

It wouldn't be a coyote anymore at that point though. You are changing the entire design.

Since about 2014, F1 runs totally bespoke, smaller-cube engines running high boost and turning insane RPMs....not remotely in the same ballpark. NA is history in F1, IIRC.
