380 rwhp still puts it at 425-435 at the crank, still more than the 412 Ford is claiming.
I would say that is either a generous dyno or one that is in great weather conditions (or probably both). There would no reason for Ford to underrate the 5.0, considering even 435 is still a good 115 away from its big brother. Although, maybe the Ford execs thought that it would be too close to the Boss?
