How long can the engine handle that power?

Most say it will last a while with a good tune. How long "a while" is, I don't know. I plan to beef up the block in the next year. I don't beat on it and I'm not running past 6500rpm, so I hope it lasts until I'm ready. FYI, I was only looking to make 600whp. I run a closed air box and the pulley is supposed to make 10.5 lbs. That's why I stated 'suprising numbers' in the thread header.

Strong numbers! The shop has two Coyote customers with Vortech's, one made 600+, the other was close to 700 with Meth, both stock longblocks are still running strong..

Congrats OP. All the damn 5.0 threads lately are going to make me spend money I shouldn't.

The youtube shows this dyno run, but the numbers are uncorrected, STD. It made 694 and 636 TQ. I love the torque that the TVS puts out.

Great numbers. I know Sambandit(a local guy I know) is making 780whp on a TVS, smallest pulley, long tubes, and full boltons with E85 on the stock motor and so far no problems that I have heard of. E85 is a GREAT fuel. If you can run E85, DO IT!

Local, as in Colorado? 780whp is impressive, but 780whp at elevation is insane!
