Not to jump off topic or anything, but I am curious to know what kind of hp/tq this new aluminum block will be able to endure. I'm thinkin' the price will increase ever so slightly. IMHO of course.

Not sure about the Camaro but the 4.6 block used in the Mustangs is rated up to 1,000 hp. I'm sure the Camaro block will be right there as well.

What kind of quarter mile E.T.s will the GT-500 turn stock? I was thinking hot rod had one that went like a 12.67 ??? Ive heard that the crys for limited traction on them but i encountered the same thing when i ran a 12.62. Yes ive changed my fluids and filters but its stock. I will admit i like the blower whine but not for the 13 THOUSAND dollar price difference. If it really has 114 hp more than my camaro where is it?

When you ask others you are going to get biased opinions, a lot of which is based on misinformation and personal likes and dislikes and none of it should affect your choice. Anthonybyram is absolutely correct. Try 'em both. Which one lights your fire? If you still can't decide, look elsewhere. No matter what people say on the Camaro and Mustang sites, there are a lot of other nice cars available to the enthusiast. Remember, you can always add an after-market suspension package if you want the Camaro to handle better than the stock Mustang. So don't base your choice on magazine comparisons. Regarding the post about the 4.6 being capable of 1000 HP; Not on stock internals. 500 at the crank is considered the safe max. That's why Roush et al can offer drivetrain waranties with 435 RWHP and as long as you don't touch their tune. Anyway, good luck with your choice. Cheers. |
