All I know is, like another member posted, that the 5.0L in the Saleen Parnelli Jones edition generates...

400 bhp @ 6000 rpm
390 ft-lbs @ 4700 rpm

And it is only a stroked version of the current 4.6L 3V with better flowing heads, and they bumped up compression ratio.

I think it is reasonable to assume the compression ratio in the 5.0L Coyote will be lower, the heads might not flow as well either, and therefore sacrifice some power; but I don't see why it couldn't be in the ballpark of 370-380 bhp.
