I'm guessing the mustang must be the late 80s, early 90s 5.0 right? Otherwise you'd be insane to be asking if your stock LFX can hang with a new 5.0 Mustang.

If that 5.0 is near stock, you should have the quicker car overall, but they are very light so it may be a bit quicker off the line assuming it runs good. On the road, your LFX should be the quicker car.

If it is modded, well then who knows.

Is that a turbocharged Sky?

Unlikely. Even the non-track pack 5.0s have excellent cornering, even with the live axle.

The V6 Camaro did not get the sport tuned suspension. So it would need a suspension upgrade to run with the Five-0 in the corners.

The 5.0 would kill it in a corner.

Slingshot...you forgot to tell us that your Sky is running the optional tune, and isn't much slower than a stock SS....of course its going to beat an LFX. Why brag???

I'm sure the OP is talking pre 95 5.0 Mustang....or hes insane to believe his LFX will compete with a newer 5.0.

Yep, Redline 2.0 with GMPP tune and Magnaflow exhaust running around 300hp/350tq and driven daily by a 18 year old girl.

Got to admit the OPs original post is lacking some important details. Anyway, a 90' 5.0 would put up a good fight and maybe put a hurt on you if it aint stock...A properly modded/gutted Civic can give a SS a good run FYI.

It's an older model, I'm not stupid. And thank you! We all love camaros, how about we all get along!?!

Not the same! Like I wrote earlier, the V6 did not get the performance suspension (FE3 or FE4) like the SS models.
