These engines are not 2017 Mustang engines with EFI and variable cam timing. They are old-school V8's with lots of horsepower. Lugging one down to off-idle rpm's, whether or not they will do it, is not good for the engine and is opening the engine up for detonation or spark knock that you can't hear in a car that's open to the air and has loud exhaust. I would highly discourage anyone to see how low you can pull one down while driving. "Stomping the gas pedal to the floor very quickly" from 1300 rpm is a good way to damage an engine.
