The YouTube channel Street Speed 717 is among the greatest for automotive content focused on American muscle cars. In a recent episode, he tests the horsepower of his just acquired Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 on the dyno. The fast Ford's previous owner, who made some modifications, believes it can produce up to 1,000 horsepower. Although the actual expectation is slightly lower, a trip to the dyno proves this fast Mustang's power.   Dyno test for the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 When the former owner listed this Mustang for sale, he claimed it had 1,000 horsepower and was a GT500. Around 850 horsepower to the wheels, or slightly more, is the target for the dyno test. They rev the engine and speed quickly on the highway while testing the GT500 on a dyno, which serves as an aural reminder of the strength this Mustang possesses. As mentioned in the video, you never know what will happen when you purchase a used automobile with modifications. Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Owner Tests 1,000-HP Claims As expected that 6,500 rpm is not this car's red line; the first test on the dyno shows 822 horsepower at 6,500 rpm. This is a respectable amount of power. The more significant number is revealed on the next pull at a higher rpm but is not revealed until nearly the film's end. Before discussing some of the channel's newest items, Street Speed 717 demonstrates the window tinting's intricate design, which stands out well against the GT500's brilliant orange exterior paint. Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Owner Tests 1,000-HP Claims Street Speed 717 on YouTube: The Numbers Don't Lie Mike anticipates the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 producing 850 horsepower to the wheels, despite the previous owner's statements to the contrary. The car is allegedly capable of 8,500 rpm, but they can only get it to reach 7,500 rpm. So the automobile is ultimately cranked up to 7,300 rpm and sends 930 horsepower to the wheels. The car's horsepower from the wheels may fluctuate with an upcoming spark plug upgrade, ultimately making it even more potent. After the spark plugs are updated, he thinks the car will produce 1,000 horsepower and live up to the audacious boasts of the former owner. A dyno test is consistently a trustworthy technique to demonstrate a car's actual power, and in the case of this GT500, it verifies that it is serious business.
