Ford Racing to introduce new intake manifold for modular V8s
#23
I'm sure with all the other FRPP stuff it'd be worth it. Like the CNC ported heads, and I'd guess they are designing a new cam to work better with this intake. Or maybe this intake works real well with the hot rod cams?
I would think, and this is a guess, that the valve train limits the revs more than anything. I've been to Milford on tours and when they do the endurance tests on motors they typically spin them well over 7000 rpms. I'm sure it's like running 500hp through a stock motor, it'll work, but for how long...

Remember, this is not a pushrod engine that IS limited by the valve train at high RPMs (valve float). OHC engines usually have a higher redline because they can safely spin that fast - example BMW's 4.0 liter DOHC V8 that makes 414hp and spins to 8,300 RPMs.
