Hennessey has confirmed that its incoming hypercar the Venom F5 will produce more than 1,600bhp. You will note that 1,600bhp is not a small amount of horsepower. It is many. Powering the Venom F5 will be a custom built 7.6-litre twin-turbo V8, pumping out all those horsepowers, as well as 1,300lb ft of torque at 4,400rpm. We"re told this new V8 gets an aluminium machined engine block, steel cylinder sleeves, ball-bearing turbos with billet compressor wheels, stainless steel turbo headers and a dry-sump set-up. Also did you get the bit about 1,600bhp being a lot? It is a lot.
