'88 GT stock block capability

RE: '88 GT stock block capability
The car made 374rwhp/ 328rwtq (On motor) & 611/ 698rwtq on an NX 225 wet shot.
Now figure in a 17% drivetrain loss thru a T5 tranny and you end up with around 440 flywheel horsepower on motor & 720 horsepower with a 225 shot.
I have videos, pictures, timeslips & dyno slips to prove it.

The new boss block is a ford racing piece, pretty nice, go with one of those and maybe a forged stroker kit from fordstrokers.com and you should have a bullet proof combo good to at least 1200 hp. I've seen the boss blocks as cheap as 1500 recently.

RE: '88 GT stock block capability
This is still all speculative, I'm not sure if I'm going with this car or an '04 Cobra. This guy says the internals are all forged, so I was thinking of buying a replacement block and tranny (currently has a T-45) and calling it a day. The car is already built with a lot of performance stuff, including twin turbos. All I'd have to do is replace the block and crank up the boost.
