For only having said it you it is necessary to believe it.
Fodder that this 475 hps. SAE NET in one 5.4L SC 8.8 psi. is really more of said by Ford, possibly be alone minimized by questions of the Assurance in US, and more for the problem of some years ago in Horsepowers matter ( being the only case and for a possible mathematical human mistake ).
If we see the relation of weight / power of the GT500 will give us approximate numbers of for what we can wait, for this I will have to change to Kilogram ( FIA norm ):
1778.112 kilos ( 3920 lbs.) / 475 hps. SAE NET = 3.74 kg / hp. ( Official )
1778.112 kilos ( 3920 lbs.) / 550 hps. SAE NET = 3.23 kg / hp. ( I believe being stock )
On having indicated that with a few basic modifications 638 will be had rwhp, we are speaking that will be near the 733 hps. SAE NET:
1778.112 kilos ( 3920 lbs. ) / 733 hps. SAE NET = 2.42 kg / hp.
( range already of the super cars exotics as of the Ford GT Stock ( GT40 ) with relation of weight / power of 2.87 kg / hp. )
Of being like that , the weight of the Shelby GT500 SVT goes on to the second term and that really this if he will be the real hunter of the Corvette Z06 ( 2.84 kg / hp.), at least in a Freeway US or in the Autobahn, and with a good enclosed runner ( Racer ) in curves.
Another thing : on having had a block of iron 5.4L , it wants to say to us that it is stronger and easy of stroker.
Thank you Ford , the rest leave it us.

Being a newbie, I have just have to ask...."How does these mods affect the warranty?" I know back in the day, any modification nullified the warranty. But it sounds like things have changed.....have they?

The usual answer to this question is, no, unless something is damaged that they can prove the modification caused. It also depends on your dealer. Hope this helps.

OH...MY...GOD, Magnum!
That is just insane. If this is true, then it MUST be pushing at least 500 horses in stock setup.
But with those swaps...WOW!
Should be fun when Joe Ferrari pulls up next to you at the stoplight...
