I can't say I care about how fast the GT500 is. I'm morally opposed to buying a $50k Mustang (or Camaro!). For the price of a GT500, I can buy a brand new SS, a gas sippin' econo car to drive to...

At least GM didn't make the car 5 feet tall like a lot of cars are nowadays. I'd rather have slight visibility issues than a car that makes me feel like a midget when I stand near it. LOL.

You've got to consider though - the Camaro doesn't offer a track pack. The Camaro that was tested has GM's bread and butter V8 suspension that everyone who buys a V8 will get. The Mustang had the...

Popular Mechanics ran 13.9@102 in the 2010 Mustang.

Camaro's are going to crush these cars.

I can't wait until people start posting youtube videos of Mustangs getting waxed.

Some people are afraid to push the gas once they hook up.:sm0:

They actually picked up about 5.5mph and the difference is 85hp. Also keep in mind that the S/C probably adds 50lbs.

LSx engines are probably the most popular for swaps. They make good power, get good gas mileage, they're light, easy to work on, small and not too expensive. What's not to love?

Tire spin off the line doesn't have a big impact on trap speed. I could spin badly and cut a 2.5 second 60' and run 110 mph or I could cut a 1.9 60' and run 110 mph.

Supposedly they both make 400hp. The 4.6 probably makes much more torque with the blower.
