This was one of the first forums I ever got really involved with and I was surprised to see "non Ford" guys on here. I guess I figured it would be more like the truck forums I was on. You hardly ever saw a GM guy on an F150 thread or vice versa, if you did it usually was trouble.

Damn you, you made pop come out my nose. Yea we envy cars that need a blower to crack 400 rwhp.
false statement......naz man made 456 rwhp in his 01 cobra with bolt ons...........all of them cams, gears, head, Fr500 intake, ported intake intake spacer, TB, TB spacer, aluminum DS, light weight fly, and**** load of other stuff.
Heads/cams aren't bolt-ons. Did the ****load of other stuff include nitrous? lol

No, there are plenty of N/A 4V's and some N/A 3V's that make over 400hp(one is sold by Saleen) but yes, it does take heads, Cams etc, again, what part of 281 cubic inches is people missing. Chevy stopped making their 5.0 engine because it was getting it's rear handed to it by the 5.0 Ford.

Chevy decided that Cubic Inches are king and where they lacked cubic inches turned to blowers, just like Ford so I think it's a fair statement that both companys don't make a typical bolton 400hp5liter or less engine.

I see light hearted jabs, not bickering and don't use examples? If it's not in your engine bay, you have seen it in another it's an example, what you smokin? You're doing it yourself with the 400hp 4 popper... I think you missed the point, but that might be considered bickering...
