The 428 Twin Turbo Windsor is something Nelson Racing Engines has been refining for more than 10 years. This Twin-Turbo Ford is a full street engine using a proprietary hydraulic cam, which means you will never adjust valves. The company’s new electronics make this one of the nicest-driving Fords it’s ever done. The NRE team spent countless hours working on combinations designed around detonation resistance, which the Fords are known for. This makes 1,000 hp on 91 octane and 1,500 on race gas. They say the throttle response on this package is insane, and you will be surprised at how snappy this combo is. Best of all is that this thing sounds amazing: a nice choppy idle with that hollow unique Ford sound.
