I read this on the Sho Shop Web Site

So what can one expect from a 3.0L conversion? How about an additional 29 ft. lbs. of TQ and 32 HP. at the wheels, for a total of 186 ft. lbs. of TQ and 193 HP on a totally stock engine! On the one equipped with Extrude Honed Heads, Extrude Honed Manifold, BigBore Butterflies, Underdrive Pulleys and Sean Hyland Headers with custom CatBack, we made 229HP and 208 ft-lb. of TQ. This is 270HP and 230 ft-lb. of TQ at the flywheel. In our Super Ford Project Contour SVT it is 0-60 in 5.9 sec., and ¼ mile in 13.8 @ 103 mph.
I know in the past Sho Shop hasnā??t been the most reliable source of information, so what do you guys think of these claims?
