I have a Livernois tune on my 5.0 F150 and am pleased with it.

I am leaning on getting Livernois to tune my SPP as well, significant gains it seems.

What’s the best you have seen so far?

Hoping to get to the track this weekend, it will be under 13, the question is how much. 6,350 # with me & a half tank of gas.
That was a lot of fun!!
4.6 0-60 today.
The 60’ was not my draggy (PB).
12.63, 1/4

My best e.t. was 12.61 @ 107.5 mph and that was back in 2012 I believe. It's posted on dragtimes if you want to look it up.

The bottom end was built to handle north of 1000 hp and planned to install a larger whipple supercharger or go turbo when funds allowed. It has the eaton that came on the supercharged lightnings and was maxed out. Then life events happened that ultimately sidelined it and it has been sitting rusting away in the driveway. Considering trying to locate a rust free 1st Gen expedition and transplanting the drivetrain.

Which one are you running? I have 2023 F-150 with the 5.0L V8. I probably won’t mess with it until the factory warranty is up, but it’s crazy fast in stock form. Idk what year yours is but the 21+ spins up to 7,000 rpm in stock form. Ford released a technical reference that basically shows the 21+ F-150 has the Boss 302 bottom end as far as the crankshaft and the same sinter forged connecting rods. Curious how high it can go, I think the Boss 302 was good for almost 8,000 rpm. I have read the E-85 tunes yield around 50 lb ft of torque at the wheel which is huge for a naturally aspirated motor.

You should be able to see me on Gen14 Forum as MJG44 I believe. Have a build thread there as well.

I am running their 87-93 performance tune with 93/94 octane

I’m guessing that is their Flex Tune that automatically accounts for octane?

Correct.
S&B intake
Corsa cat back

Have a dragy but haven't gotten around to give it a run. I'm running heavy 24s right now, waiting on my lightweight 22s to get tires then I'll see what it can do.
