Either Ford over rates their engines or GM under rates their. Don't know which, but it has been going on since Ford stopped selling flat heads.

Status: offline ford was flat out lying about the power the motors were rated almost 30-40 hp.why do you think the supercharged them. thats why i switched to the ls-1 cars. 4.6 ford motors are turds unless they are superchared.

Status: offline thats not to bad for that dyno pull, remember that power has to go thru the tranny and the rear before it hits the road..

yes i realize that, but my friend has a 02 ram air and his only lost 10 hp to the wheels on the dyno, thats what i was talking about, i just felt like the mustang should have not been that bad.
