Ford news from SEMA

Don't know if anyone else has read these articles but they are pretty interesting. Didn't find anything on the new Saleen Ram Air kit little disappointed about that. But that Roush P51A is bad ***!

I like that Roush too! Wonder how bad they are flogging that Eaton to get to 510 crank hp? Be interesting to see the track results.

I am interested in seeing it in action also, but the P51A is not even on their website yet.

It also mentioned internal engine upgrades. Maybe they are hinting at the rotating assembly? The wing on the back of the P-51 was a little over the top for me.

It seems the manufactures for F/I are really dialing in the tuning and boost specs for our 3 valves. Is it me or I have I just not heard of as many people blowing their engines lately? God bless technology!

+1 !!! I remember at first there were lots of reports of engines blowing. It seemed like when you got to around 450rwhp you were in severe danger and it was a crap shoot. Now it seems there are lots of cars close to and above 500rwhp on the stock internals and I don't see those blown engine posts. I'm at 478rwhp and don't plan on doing anything to increase that. -Joe
