On a Mustang Dyno my car put down 405RWHP with a 4,000+ UNLOCKED converter flashing to 4,900 rpms. I was pretty happy with it. The biggest surprise was where it made max power at, 7,000 rpms.

Well I did not dyno that wednesday , instead I went yesterday..It was around 50-55* outside ...perfect for the dyno..All pulls were done on a Dyno Dynamics 850...
First pull 387 rwhp 377 rwtq
2nd pull 381 rwhp 375 rwtq
third pull 384 rwhp 376 rwtq
I agree that I could be making more , but with the 78mm stock truck intake and tb and small cam I know there is more to be had..But pulling a new 5.0 from 30-85ish is proof enough for me...the truck runs good..1/8mi track times to follow
-I also sent PatG a PM to see where I could optimize my setup and what he thinks about a new cam

With that intake I am surprised that the numbers were that high. I thought it would restrict you a bit more. Just think what a nice ported 92mm Fast intake and 92mm TB would add
