Fine I googled it. It isn't relevant to this because it is a tuner car and it is only 380 horse which is still less than the three mustangs that were actually made and sold by ford.

If you want to include tuner cars then lets bring saleen, roush, and steeda into this.

OK, that I can understand, but why are you comparing cobras and gt500s to only camaro/firebirds, and leaving out corvettes and GTO's when talking about lsx based engines?

Fine

3 most powerful lsx engines

1. ls7 06 Z06 505 horse

2. ls6 Earlier Z06 405 horse

3. LS2 vette/gto 400 horse

Average 437 horse


3 most powerful ford modular engines

1. Ford GT 550 horse

2. Ford gt500 500 horse

3. Ford 03 cobra 390 horse

Average 480


if you compare even more engines it gets even more stacked in fords favor because on down the list you still have the 385 horse cobra R and 380 horse lightning to round out the top 5 which still puts the average of the top 5 at 441 which is still more than the average of the 3 most powerful production chevy lsx engines.


Why not compare the ls9, gee maybe because they haven't sold a single one at a gm dealership yet.

they go higher than 380 you probally looked at a stage 1. but if ya wanna keep arguing thats fine just remeber that some of your fords needed blowers to get there numbers . this is beating a dead horse. this argument could go on for days and would end up right back were it started, nowhere. but i guess its easy for you/others to set here and say aww man that cars quick/fast when you infact do not have a car that compair to any of those mentioned. and MO you hush it you dont count

I understand, but you just picked that one part out of my sentence. True, the LS9 is not yet in production, although it does exhist in it's early form. I have no doubt that it will put out the numbers GM estimates though, but even leaving out the LS9, you still have very formidable lsx based engines with over 400hp. Lighten up on the whole hanging yourself, I don't appreciate threatening comments.
