A standard Shelby Mustang GT500 pumps out around 550bhp from a supercharged 5.4-litre V8.


However, information gleaned from the Internet reveals the one in this video to be pushing somewhere close to 800bhp.


Watch as it makes a gallant dash to the redline while strapped to a dyno. Then something small, significant and paramount to the construction of the engine like, totally explodes. Men in Vests come and investigate via the medium of staring at the engine bay.


You will want to see this as LOTS OF FIRE shoots out of the engine.
