I find it hilarious that people would make the claim Ford owned the last 7 years when they never really eclipsed the LS1 F-body performance without gobs of boost. Even after that the C6 vettes showed what GM could do with a non aspirated LSx in the Z06, then fully ridiculed Ford's 5.4 with the ZR1.

GM made a critical strategic error abandoning the affordable muscle car market, no argument there, but they have always been the producer of the best domestic performance cars.
I find pulling out the 'vette card hilarious. And irrelevant to this thread. And dissing forced induction in one breath (GT500), and praising it in another (ZR1) is beyond hilarious.

So how's GM doing with those non aspirated engines?
