I dont have a single problem with the mod motors except that they are too small. Ford needs a bigger V8. But you have to admit that a 281 ci inch motor putting out 320 hp in N/A form is more inpressive than a 5.7 putting out 325 N/A.

You're funny. Lets take a 2005 motor and compare it to a motor that was made over 4 years ago. Good job. Just in case you didn't know, the 5.7's after 2002 put down 405hp.

All im saying is that the mod motors are pretty decent motors for their size. I will just leave it at that.

that block is a C5-R block that was supposedly built and delieverd by carrol shelby himself. although what i dont understand is why a ford guy would build and deliver a chevy block.
but anyways, they are puttin a 5 spd in and tweaking the exhaust to quiet it down. There are a few others minor defects that are being fixed. Very nice car indeed. putting down 1038 RWHP and 932 lb/ft TQ...

The 405 hp is from an LS6 which as far as I know isnt a high volume motor. The LS1 is what I was refering to and as far as I know they got up to 350 hp which was in a gto/vette if im not mistaken. Then they bumped it up to 6.0 L (LS2) which got them 400 hp.
