Very very possible. A well set up/driven 5.0 can be killer. I had, ported Boss IM, 3:55s, 3800 converter, full exhaust, E85 and a 17" radial and I was running 7.3s@97 in 2000+ DA car had a few more tents in it on a cooler day. Did the math and it would have been a low to mid 11 in the 1/4. I can't remember what exactly the math equated to as that was over a year ago lol. 5.0s respond very well to bolt ones. Problem is (just like with any car) 95% of the people that own them have more money than driving ability, that's why you see full bolt on Coyotes and 5th gens running mid 13s lol

A 5.0 can get within range of the GT500 pretty easily depending on what year we're talking about. In 2011, the iron block 5.4 GT500 wasn't much quicker than the new-at-the-time 5.0.
The 5.0 is one hell of an engine, so it's not difficult to get some speed out of it. |
