I want ot know what actual dyno numbers were produced with this crate motor with Cobra intake, 24lb, 65mm TB, and 73mm MAF or close to that setup. This is what Ford Performance claims this crate motor will push out, seems like a great price for that much HP, I just want to know if its marketing hype or real numbers.

Anyone heard good or bad about this crate motor.

If it is true I wish I could just put it on my Visa card
and wait for a knock at the door. I would think people
buying them would complain if it was exaggerated too much
Sure some HP #'s have, no doubt been over rated for sales,
but not in this case. I think it is accurate. No reason why it could not be. If that is why you are wondering.

I was the guy who posted the question similar to this one. I have that same crate engine with the E303 cam on the way from summit, I'll let you know how it runs when I get it.

It's not marketing hype..Ford Motorsports is clear how they attained those hp #'s..keep in mind it's 345
(340 w/ e-cam) flyweel/brake horsepower, not 345 Rear Wheel HP..
Here's the post from earlier today..
