[QUOTE="GTSpartan, post: 16272685, member: 21531"] Outside of loosely measuring differences between modifications, WHP is a largely irrelevant number. There are just way too many variations and permutations that influence results. Just to cut through all the B.S., this engine is rated according to SAE J1349 standards, meaning every engine will make at least 760 crank HP, and I believe (don't have time to comb through the standard) within +/- 2%. Regardless of what some chassis dyno spits out, there will be no 790, 800, 850 hp, etc. GT500's from the factory. Just ain't happening. Compliance with the standard, and Ford's own QC processes virtually guarantee that. EDIT: A small, but important point is that the SAE standard is [U][b]100% VOLUNTARY[/b][/U] for the OEM's. They are choosing to rate their engines according to a 3rd party standard. There is zero reason for them to cheat or game it. [/QUOTE]
