The S281 E has like 450bhp but it will run you 65k. The S281 S/C has 375bhp to the 03-04 Roush S/C 380bhp.

That's about the time I got out of the Ford scene. It's good to see they are finally half way decent now. Thanks for the update

Heres a link to some pics of these monstrosities: Roush Pix

If you ask me $10k in body molding doesn't make the f150 look any better... they've been ugly since day 1... now Rouch just makes 'em ugly with more plastic and a pathetic 1/4 time.

Those didn't look like they were S/C. So add another 5-7k for about 120 more horses.

It really was funny.
I'll admit, I didnt believe some of the stories I read on here about the total idiots some of you have run into. Im now a certified believer.
I run into idiots that stay stupid **** like this all the time, the worst part is that if you ever do get next to him at a light, he won't even race. They have a multitude of excuses but deep down they know it's better to believe that you're fast than to be proven you're not.

Just saw a road test that included the Roush supercharged F150 0-60 7.3 sec.1/4mile at 15.5@89.1mph.A good stock 4.8 would give it more than it could handle.

How about a '76 with 160hp and two bad cylinders? Then it might be a race with that truck
