It was only a month ago when Katech was shooting to push the new LT5 engine past 1,000 horsepower on E85. Not only did the company succeed, but it’s since hit a new high mark on its quest for more horsepower with the same engine.
Watch the above video as Katch tests the limits of its dyno with a twin-turbo, direct injected (DI only) LT5 making 1308hp on E85.
“To our knowledge, this is the highest horsepower Gen 5 DI E85-powered engine ever tested,” the company said on the video description. “It’s also the highest horsepower LT5 ever tested, and a personal best for Katech’s Cell 2 Dyno (rated at 1,000 horsepower).”
