Most Horsepower on Daily Driven Stock Block?
We just finished Chris McCarty's car here at STM. Another stock block motor... 440 whp Mustang Dyno and saw an 11.1 at the track...

I dyno'd 406 with a HUGE boost leak caused by a bad BOV and should be around 450 by next weekend. (Comp 280's going in). I'm also doing my 60k maintenance as it's just around the corner. What would you consider high mileage for doing drop in pistons? I'm considering doing the drop in combo with arp rod bolts also and would like more insight.
Also big difference if you have a stock framed turbo than a big turbo because of the way that power comes...
Lets say at the 400-450 level it is easier to blow up an engine with a stock/stock framed turbo than a large 35 lets say... Thats because of the torque and the way its been produced... Stock turbos on high boost are much more violent in terms of spool; on the other hand a laggier 35 would give power more progressively and less violently....

My car have never been on the dyno, but I have ran the times in my sig on a stock engine. And I beat the hell out of the car on the street on a daily basis. The car runs on e85 so its always on the same power/tune.

The correct question, then, would be how much torque can you make reliably on a stock bottom end.

Chris at GVautosport was making over 500whp on his HTA35R setup on the stock bottom end, daily driven on straight pump.
