Thats around 400rwhp, which would be fine with me. The real question will be how easy they are to blow up.

the duratec 37 has a lot of similarities with the duratec 35 which is used in the ecoboost v6. I can't seem to find any information on the rods or pistons though to see if they are cast or forged, I've heard both.
