a few pulls doesnt prove anything
impressive numbers for sure, but the reality is this engine is on borrowed time at that power level. Anyone who think engineers design components for 70% more load is out of their mind. :nono: It has been proven time and time again, even the trinity isn't designed to just add 300+ hp to it and last.
It shouldnt have an issue at 11psi. Thats not alot of boost and with how efficient this motor is it will be fine. Take a look at the Viper, doubt the engineers designed it to make over 1000whp stock but it does. There are plenty of motors that were not designed to make 70 or 100% more power but do and do it safely.
the boost level isn't the main problem. This motor would be way safer with a turbo. Flat plane crank engines especially over 4.2L have huge vibrational harmonics that can destroy an engine at high rpm. Adding a pulley with a belt tensioner to the front of the crank is definitely asking for trouble.
the voodoo isnt a run of the mill ford motor and if im not mistaken its the largest displacement fpc engine ever. Ford had to pull out all the stops to keep it balanced.
Sick numbers and I love it!!
To everyone saying the car was built for this or that, you're wrong. Want to know what the car was built for? TO BE SOLD. For customers to buy them and do as they please with them.
Suprised at how many people thought this motor wouldnt handle boost.

Thats been but confirmedexactly, it has forged mahle pistons and its rumored the forged rods are from mahle as well.
