heard this about the new 2015 mustang...true?
forged internals and tolerating 1000 hp to the crank stock?

You're getting your info from the wrong place.
Probably 6g lol
What is the truth about the motor though what kind of power are they going to be able to hold
Surely you jest.
Similar to a Boss 302. Oil pump gear will be a time bomb at higher levels.
As SID implies, there are a number of internals that carried over from the Boss program. So, certainly more robust than the 11-14 Coyotes but by no means indestructable. We have seen 870+ to the tires with our GEN II supercharger kit on our Boss 302 with GulfMach race gas. But, we highly recommend an 82mm pulley for 10-11psi and 600-625 to the tires on 11-14 GTs on pump gas.

MHO keep it around 600 tire. I have little trust in the pistons.
Id push 650-750rwhp with good fuel, tune & if possible OPG's.
With cheaper rods than the boss and still cast Pistons, I don't know as much more is available over the 11-14. Maybe just a little as the rods are better. Still unsure about Pistons. No details yet on them.
Someone posted right. The oil pump gears will be a hinderance
My 11 was 585whp. I might take this one to 620ish and feel ok

The 2015 GT engine has the Boss rods, which are better than those found in the 2011-2014 GT.

I think it's only a matter of time for something to let go after 625. Why push a brand new car over the edge? The pistons are junk.....
I thought we found the rods where a different forging process than the boss? Maybe I'm cornfused.
Because whatever the first part to go is at whatever power level gets daddy ford blamed for giving us junk. Happens every new iteration. Give us 500hp and capable of 1000 before a piston breaks and people will bitch that they should have designed it better because they know we mod our cars. Oh and we want it for 17k$ with bmw quality and weigh 2900 lbs.
Now, where's Justin (vmp). I wanna find the weak link in my le's motor.

You can push them as hard as you wish but in MHO the pistons are nothing special and will be the weak link. I would wait to see what lets go and why before pushing boost. I will leave my car stock for now and see what issues others have a year from now.

I've got a buddy with only OPG's pushing 780+rwhp on a stock block 13 coyote. I've seen numerous buddies of mine doing 700+rwhp numbers on 11-14 coyotes and BEATING the hell out of them too on rolls and at the 1/4! Again long as the tunes are spot on, fuel is great and the parts aren't defective from the factory I'm sure u will have a little wiggle room with the 15+ coyotes.
What you need for life...
Tune
Oil Pump Gears
Real Fuel = E85, MS109 Ect... (93 is NOT what u want to push these motors with)
My car has been pushing quite the stock pistons quite hard too and they're all in there still. I think that they are pretty stout for being I a stock 400hp car. Nothing like a Chevy 4.8 or 5.3 but they are quite strong.
We've made 655whp, just shy of 12psi. Been beating on it pretty hard. No issues thus far.
