Also the 4.6 DOHC SC mod motor didn't make 469 stock. You would probably put down less than 450 hp.

Odd that the XLR-V is certified at 443 hp at 6,400 rpm and 414 lbs.-ft. of torque at 3900 rpm with the same engine.
ULS should get this engine as the base engine.
Ford S/C DOHC 4.6L put down around 415-420HP on average.
It is a DOHC 5.4L making at least 475HP and possibly up to 500HP. I hope Ford uses the new rating on the Ford GT and GT500 engines
The Supercharged Northstar V-8 will also power the upcoming V-Series edition of the XLR luxury roadster slated for production in early-2006. XLR-V is certified at 443 hp at 6,400 rpm and 414 lbs.-ft. of torque at 3900 rpm. The Supercharged Northstar generates more peak power for the STS-V, compared to the XLR-V, due largely to the greater underhood space of the STS that allows more induction and exhaust capacity. On the other hand, the XLR-V will be a quicker car than the STS-V, given its superior power-to-weight ratio.
Ford S/C DOHC 4.6L put down around 415-420HP on average.

, Ford says there isn't enough twin screws to go around.
