The fact that a motor that produces 332 chp from the factory can handle 600whp for any amount of time is impressive.
Good common sense food for thought. I have been waffling for several months now on whether I should start hunting for parts to make the E85 switch for 650+whp but in the last couple of weeks I've been leaning more to leaving the performance side of things alone... 520whp is still a lot of fun and I've got to believe it will have much better longevity.
