Left lane 5th gen w/ a Livernois 416 ci with a IPS built twin 6266 kit on E85 made 952 on a dynojet 17psi

Middle lane is a HCI 5.3 with rod bolts 4th gen and a T7875 on E85 made 725whp on a Mustang dyno 17 psi

I'm 32v S480 on 93 octane made 720whp Mustang dyno

5th gen said he was in 14 psi this run

was roughly 40 to 150 for me here, I didn't here the honks, but it wouldn't have mattered

All three cars run good but damn that little junk yard 5.3 runs hard.

Nice races

Would a hundred lbs more torque of helped you out? I only ask because because it seems that 2V Lightnings can make 75-100tq more then ones that have done the 4V swap. I seen a few 2V's make 700/800, one had a KB and the other had a turbo.

No I don't think boosted 2v would make 720hp/700tq on a on 93 octane on a Mustang dyno. Plus I'm only 8.1-1 cr & timing is 17*.
If weight was equal it would've been a 3 way tie
The 5th gen is roughly 4000 lbs & 800ish hp
The 4th gen is 3800 & 725hp
I'm 4700 lbs

You have two amazing vehicles!

Thanks I appreciate that. I'm the only Ford guy representing out of all my friends.

Ehh idk about that , if I convert to E85 with them I'll add another 7-8 psi and try again. But then I worry about the trans going.
I built my mach1 to run these guys.

Trans has only a shift improvement kit & a Precision converter. It been great.
& yes the mach is close only needs the head lights wired , 35 splines & spool installed & the 4L80e built.
