LT1 & LS1 and the 5.0 &4.6

Well I wanted to post on the LT1 debate in Sky's post there but I thought it was getting pretty long and thought that a new thread covering just this topic was better.

All this talk about how slow the LT1's are when really the fact is stock vs. stock the LT1 is just plain faster. and I don't know where all you super fast stang guys are but I have yet to run into on that i didn't beat with my stock Z. long live the mighty 225hp 4.6 they are soooooo fast. hehe

I have to agree that a stock LT1 is faster than a [b/]stock[/b]SN 95 of the same year. I don't think there is any point argueing this, because it is backed up by numbers.

The stock LS1's are faster than the new GT too.

BUT we are not talking about a level field here. Take the money you saved on the purchase of the LT1 and put it into the SN95 and now lets talk.

There is more aftermarket support for the 5.0 for sure and I will be honest and say I don't know how the 4.6 compares. But I'm sure it's not far behind now.

Anyway, those are my thoughts right now.
