Huh. Those seem to almost exactly match Fords crank numbers….Anyone know what fuel Ford uses for their results?
If you read through this thread, I posted some laboratory testing that was done on a 3.5EB F150 and it seemed to indicate that Ford rates the output of the 3.5EB on something close to 87oct fuel.

Ah…Seems generous to think the 10-15% loss to the wheels is more than made up for with 93 octane though.

Just wish someone would crack the ECU for the ‘23’s so I could do my own testing ;)

If you're going to short block, you're better off just buying some good rods and pistons so the price varies. If you're upgrading the internals, need larger turbos and injectors to make use of it and also an upgraded fuel pump. It's like upgrading the stereo, $4k and 80 hours later the project is much more than it started off as. With the PB a new element comes into the picture, trans needs upgraded and as of yet I've seen nobody even mention the hybrid clutch which is essentially a clutch plate assembly just like you'd find in the trans. If I had to guess it's probably comprised of one of the tran's clutch assemblies but that's just a guess, nobody has addressed it, let alone mentioned it.
