How much horsepower can the later 7.3 engines reasonably put out? 500? Is there a dyno-list somewhere?

a PSD on PMR's is limited to about 400 (ISH) and on Forged factory rods about 500-550 (ISH)..

it takes a lot to get there

usually intake, exhaust, bigger innercooler, custom tunes, injectors, turbo, multiple pumps, fuel system, and built trans and that will usually have a 7.3 in the 500's.. just depends on how big each of those components are... once you start getting up there in HP, you need internal bracing (girdle), stronger rods, headstuds, and other internals

right now there is a truck that is selling a motor -- 03f250 I think his name is (the huge red truck) -- and just the built longblock is 10K-15K -- already sold the turbo and other power adders...
