New to the DFW5.0s...Here's my ride

HPP does good work tuning the Coyotes, as does True Street. That's about the only two I'd trust in the area.

I decided on the TVS because of the torque curve. KB has a lot more room to grow. Why did you pull the KB...did you build the block?

Stock engine. It's amazing what these things can do, compared to the 2V and 3V's, in bone stock form. I know there are plenty of people living with 700+ hp on the stocker, but I'm not particularly easy on mine. I was going to sell the car too, so I put it all back to stock and was about to start work on my coupe, then the new KB deal fell into my lap. A deal I couldn't refuse, so to speak. We're starting off smaller this time, likely in the 11-12 psi range. Should deliver the car on the 2nd or 3rd so they can get started.

I had a KB for my GT500...they are very well designed. Who's doing the work? Any fuel upgrades yet?

Yeah one of the keys to the coyote is the head design. It flows very well and when it's pressurized air, it flows extremely well. In fact, the coyote head at a given lift actually outflows a Yates D3 head, according to one of the designing engineers.

HPP will be doing this one. Mannys 2011 is making over 900 now with the 4.2 on it. The only fuel upgrades for now are 80 lb injectors and a BAP. I'm shooting for mid 600's this time around.

Wow...Is he on a stock block?

Well, you have more than enough fuel for mid 600's and to keep it safe.

Stock block, but all forged internals. IIRC, he blew up the stocker at around 800 hp with the 3.6 on it. His car is a bit insane, was running 9.90's with the 3.6 and 18's all the way around. Sounds stock too. Haven't seen it go with the 4.2, but it should be good for some 9.7x's.

That's pretty crazy power. I'll be happy with a 10.9 et....I think. LOL.
