if it's through a 5 speed (although I have no I dea why he would go through all the trouble of putting a 5 speed in when a t56 would have been better) It could have made 500 to the rear wheels on 16 lbs

Depending on what the 5.4 came out of it could have different compression ratio's , the Lightnings 5.4 had 8.5:1 and the N/A's were 9.0-9.5:1, they all had powdered metal rods good for throwing into the trash first chance you get, they all had forged pistons made by mahle they hold up pretty good unless you put a rod through them, most of them had forged kellogg cranks that were good to whatever power (over 1600hp) has been made to date (there were only a few that didn't have a forged crank)

500 is riding the line if the rods are stock, Lightning guys hit the wall at around 450 hp at the wheels through the auto that we have (around 550 at the crank), so with a manual , i'd say you could go a little further
