Not if i swap my ported M112 back on for the weekend! If I just write SVT on the front next to the snout, how many people would realized I switched from a black M112 to a Whipple anyway??

Yep, to add to that, Gary made 660rwhp on only 15 psi with his V6 as well. Just goes to show the v6 can really flow when built right. But then what do we know.... we own the wrong motor right?

I know what your saying, and thats a hot v-6... however you have to acknowledge that a v8 with the same build (which is just about the same cost) would be making substantially more power, apples to apples

Not a chance that the V8 at that power level is the same cost. Six of everything instead of 8 in the bottom end... and the V8 would also require aftermarket crank and block - which a V6 uses the stock Ford parts for. And look at the numbers. The V6 cars where using similar PSI levels and making the same (if not more) power. Numbers don't lie (in this case).
