Default co-worker said his 5.0L makes 600+ hp

this is pointless gossip but still extremely funny

this kid i work with said his 1980 f250 with a 5.0L is pumping out over 600hp at the crank and like 550 to the wheels.

i pop the hood and see nothing to backup his claim. 600cfm carb.. like $150 rpm intake.. and there was puddles of coolant everywhere. he showed me the "legendary" dyno chart. it didnt say anything. it was just a bar graph that said hp and torque. no a/f.. no time no date.. basicaly a pile of bull.

after all this talking im finaly like ok well lets see wat this 600hp monster can do to my auto 5.0L. were side by side on a 2 lane road and out of no where he just floors it. i didnt do anything i just waited till he slowed down so we could line up. again we get even and no honk or anything, he just goes. so i say f* it and just keep it floored. walked that truck like it was goin in reverse.

cant even believe i wasted my time.
