That's why I tuned mine on a conservative Mustang dyno. :roflmao:

:clap: Now that’s good thinking, I better do that when I go FI, who cares if it’s a dyno that shows considerably lower numbers than others, if it stays under 450rwhp, I’ll be ok :)

About how much HP can the MOTOR(stock aluminum block),TRANNY,AND REAR END hold???


safely with the horse power they came from factory plus a throttle body spacer,fog light delete plus axle backs.anything after that you are risking to blow the engine up.

Not sure if i would do a throttle body spacer on a stock block... It might blow.

The blocks can withstand well over 1000hp. The newer motors from '08 on, have forged internals (Cobra Crank, Manley Rods, Forged Pistons). That's the reason you see so many cars with Blowers, Turbos, and Nitrous, cause these cars can take it.

The Automatic 5R55 Transmissions are very strong and can back up whatever you throw at it due to it's larger than normal and hardened 300M input shaft. The only reason people switch to the 4R70W Trannys is because they have a Transbrake. Other than that, they're equal in comparison.

The 5 speed Manual 3650 Transmissions are the equivelant to the TKO500's and can really take a beating. A lot of racers in "Real Street" Class use the 3650's due to ease of shifting because they come straight from Ford with Face Plated Gears which make "Power Shifting" very easy. So hold the gas to the floor and let her rip. The main reason why people switch to the 6060 Transmissions from the GT500's is due to the fact that they can have a 6th gear for highway cruising. Other than that, the 6060 is....okay.

The Rear ends of these cars are almost as strong as a Ford 9''. Most of the guys that switch to a 9'' do so only for braggin rights to say "Hey, I have a Ford 9'' in my car". They're good but not necessary.

If you happen to do a search on any of the above mentioned topics, you'll be able to prove/disprove the information I provided you with. I had a little more free time this morning than normal to mess with you.

Damn that was good, you had me there....I was thinking this is a well written post its almost like he went out of his way to be wrong on every part of it!

That only adds up to 99.9 % bro... :boobies:
0.09 % of people use NOS and get the AIDS.

I left the 0.09% out because thats the percentage of people who believe all 3 are retarded for thinking theres a magic number in the first place, where an engine will blow up.

450rwhp safe. Its funny how people have the time to bash guys that ask questions by saying use the search button etc. but instead of answering their easy questions they just seem to have enough time to type "search button" or copy pics, etc. This is a forum of needed advice so lets give it to them, if you know it all then why are you on the forums then.

How about you familiarize yourself with Hawgman's Board Rules. And since you point out that this forum is for needed advice, why don't you NOT respond to questions you clearly don't know the answer to. The answer you gave is just your opinion. It doesn't mean shit. It's worthless. Because the only intelligent answer to this question is.....................................
























IT DEPENDS.


Too many variables to give an accurate answer.

And on a side note, you're an asshole for getting me going again. I've done so well lately and then I read this shit you're spewing.

sometimes it's more fun to bash people who haven't/won't learned the basic forum protocols.
Like it or not, that's the culture that's been established here.
