[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 14610996, member: 20202"] Agree, I don't see to many people shelling out big coin for a GT350 and then put a blower on it, that why they make the GT500 but I'm sure a few will. The power levels being floated around for this engine are amazing. The variable cam timing and high flow induction system is allowing Ford to extend the rev range. 8000 rpm redline! :eek: I wonder how much seat pressure they are running on the valves I'm sure it more than 62. It's only a matter of time before a few "crazies" push this engine to 10 grand who knows we may see some spectacular engine failures (melted pistons get kinda boring after a while). I'll always be a forced induction guy. NA engines requires a lot more "finesse" to make power where a blower just overwhelms everything. High revs beats up on the engine but they are more reliable then FI engines which go "poff" pretty easily :nonono: Ford getting it down to 3600 lbs is not likely. The chassis just got stiffer than the S197 and heavier just like it's done since they built the wet noodle Fox. Lightweight parts only take you so far before stripping stuff off the car. It's all good :thumbsup: [/QUOTE]
