[QUOTE="Fourcam330, post: 3011788, member: 24445"] A few things about the internals of a Ford GT. OEM Ford 5.4L forged cranks have held 1400HP and 8000rpm before deforming. 4340 H beam rods with 7/16" rod bolts are factory underrated to 750HP/7000rpm for the 5.4, however if engine speeds are kept in check (under 7k) you can use them to 1000HP without failure. The real concern, just as in the 03/04 Cobras are the pistons. I'm sure the Mahle's are world's better than the Zollners whose skirts tend to collapse @ 550rw+; if I had to guess I would say they can take anything the stock blower could throw at them (unless it had a suicidal tune), as was the case with the 03/04s. After a rebuild with either an off the shelf or custom set of CP pistons, 1000HP is NP. Obviously a twin screw won't get you there but you get the idea. [/QUOTE]
