come on give me a break. Not everyone in a big block old car is "some old dude." I have had mine since I was 22 years old and now i am 27. I do also own a 91 GT so i know what they are both like. The 5.0 will never ever pull the way my 428 does. It is just a totally different feeling. I have never lost to a 5.0 with my 428 I did lose to a 95 vortech supercharged lighting though. Most of you guys with your lightly moded 5.0 beat old big block cars because most of the are not modified. They are stock because they are worth more money stock moded old cars aren't worth a sit. I would hope that with 20 years of technology on the old cars that stock for stock a newer mustang would win. What the hell would Ford be doing if they couldn't improve on a product 20 years later. You want to compare cars look at NHRA stock eleminator the mods for each class are the same and there sure as hell aren't any 5.0s running in the same class as the big blocks since a stock eleminator 428cj runs deep into the 10s and 5.0 run 11s.
