Ugh...arguments on both sides are flawed.
The GT500 is pretty much in a class of its own unless Chevy decides to make a Z/28 (which seems very unlikely with the new CEO, Barack Obama). It would be more fair to compare the SS to the GT. Or even better, wait and compare it with the new 5.0; that's probably going to be the most equal comparison. But to compare the GT500 to anything is sort of pointless, since there isn't really anything within its power or price range. To say the GT500 destroys the SS is like saying the Corvette destroys a Charger SRT-8; yes, it's true, but they're in completely different ballparks.
As for the whole "Ford has to use f/i and it's no fair," that's not a good argument either since they use much smaller engines. Of course a 5.4 liter engine is going to have to use forced induction to beat a 6.2 liter engine, it's just common sense. Plus, based on what's going on in Congress these days, natural aspiration could be a thing of the past very quickly...
