Should be, stock motors held to 1200wheel with multiple passes for a few people. Its part of why I don't get why Ford made a point of saying the DarkHorse has stronger internals than the GT unless the 24+ GT is downgrading on internals. How many people will ever push over 800-900 wheel let alone 1100+ and not being doing a full engine build anyway?

Yep, I will be very happy with 600-700 WHP on my daily I am sure and its comforting to see people pushing such high numbers.

TJ is a cool guy. You can find him actively participating in many of the FB mach 1 groups.

Yes, and even with a full rebuild, pistons, rods and longer head bolts if you don't have a gen 3 seem to be the biggest upgrades when going 900 plus.

Actually, I love Chevy ZL1's number. 650 horses + 650 lb-ft of torque. Maybe I'm OCD, LoL.
That's been said, Ford de-tune the engine from 480 to 470 horses is the only stupid downside for the 2022+ model.

Dang that's sweet. A 9 second car with no drama.

Lol but the Coyote sounds better. The loss of 10hp is a easy fix, there is a carbon filter in the intake you remove it and bam you back to 480ish.

Awesome! Do I have to touch the throttle body? Or remove the air filter and be able to reach it? *any photos?

Here is a video with a dyno pull as well. You are only removing the intake plastic inlet tube you wont be touching the throttle body. Video has more details.

Badass, it sounds amazing, running mid-9's is super impressive.
