Not really what I meant ^^
what im saying is this:
2.0L = 500hp
3.0L = 750hp
4.0L = 1000hp
4.8L = 1200hp
6.0L = 1500hp

So 4.8L should do 1krwhp,

yet I'd feel funny about factory 4.8L lasting about much more than 700 to the tire. Where did ~230hp go?
If 850rwhp will "last forever" at 4.8L w/ factory engine then I guess its close. Will it though? And if so holy crap
