To all saying it's the high TQ that kills a motor, you are correct, BUT.... Horsepower is simply a function of torque at xxxx RPM. More precisely, HP = (TQ x RPM)/5252
Also, F.I. has done their due diligence and it is just paying off for their customers, that's all. Nobody truly knows the limits of the stock block until a kit like Tony's meets a Specialty Z tune and the clock ticks forward. Haters gonna hate.

It's not hate, it's just a fact. There is a torque limit at which the motor will let go, whether it be from an issue or simply metal fatigue from high cylinder rpressures. Are the FI kits over that? We'll see. Time will tell. At the 600whp level, it's not going to take much of a hiccup to take out a motor.
