^^ agree
The V-6 is rated at 260 h.p.....a bit too high. Should have been 230 hp.
Without much aftermarket support for the 3.7, I doubt we will see this combo used much.
Has to be 3550 lbs raceweight and run on a 12.65 index in K/SA.
It will take at least 350 fwhp to do it according to the Wallace calculator.
The 2010 4.6 GT engine is a bit high @ 270 hp compared to the same year 4.6 CJ at 272 h.p.....and that 2 h.p. more gets you cnc ported heads, twin 62 mm throttle body, bigger cams, and probably more compression.
The Coyote 5.0 is way off the mark at 380 h.p.
That's too bad.
