Instead of you not believing what I am saying...maybe I shouldn't believe the whole stangnet.com community with the 99+ GTs (stock of course)...mid-low 14s and thats it out of a v8 and 300+ torque?? Did Ford mess up with the gearing or what?

go to the track and then talk...
i dont care what you think about the stangnet community, at least most of them have slips to back it up, and most of them dont go by motor trend test results..... this dude i know got 13.7 out of a bone stock 99 gt w/ powershifting, but yet again this isnt a 1/4 mile war of i know someone whos faster, and stock to stock driver to driver you will get pulled.
i could see you bashing on 4.6's because the aftermarket isnt quite vast yet, but why dont you bash on 5.0's then? i mean 225 hp out of a V-8 with
5!!! Liters thats terrible.
now a better comparison would be a 5.0 to a maxima
both go motor to motor mod for mod. watch how the mustang catches up and passes it after the maxima is out of all motor options.
why is that then? Its because you brag about a car thats already tuned from the factory. do you see any all motor maxima's running high 10's? hell i have a trap speed of a mid 12 second car from boltons. i dont see many maximas doing 105 in the 1/4 mile without aid of forced induction or forced injection. same as the good old S2000, GREAT LITTLE WHIP! but you run out of all motor modifications REAL quick lol.
we all have differences of opinions. its great that you guys are into a semi fast car thats already built with impressive performance, but as you all know its NOT ABOUT STOCK, and mod for mod your gonna run out alot quicker than any 4.6 on motor and DEFINATELY a 5.0... plus the 4.6 is the same motor as the 99-02 cobra... which produced 320hp, so its just a head swap away.
and dont make me bring up dollar for dollar now
