IMO, chevy builds better vehicles, and ford builds better engines, but how fast do you really need to go? Before a hater says ford motors are crap that dont make any power and have to have a blower to keep up with a chevy...
IF you would have stopped right here, your wouldn't have come off sounding like a babbling idiot.
HERE ARE THE FACTS...
Mercedez Benz designed this motor, not ford.
Modular Motor>Pushrod.... Ford engines have typically been built with higher quality parts. For example, a 4.6L 3V mustang engine has the bolt on ability to produce as much power, bolt on to bolt on as a 5.7L ls6. Due to low compression, and a strong rotaing assymbly. A blown stock bottom 4.6L 3v can make the same power, maybe more than a blown stock bottom Ls6. LS6 can only handle 7-10psi max.
We all know how much power a 4.6 4v DOHC cobra engine can make. At 281ci this motor was the craziest thing to hit the car market since the 426hemi.
Seriously? Yes, it was so welcomed by the Ford faithful, its been scrapped after a how many year run? Something tells me it was no where near as successful as the motor it replaced. First year the motor put out 225hp, last year it was rated at what? That's right 315hp/325tq
The holy grail ford motor, the 5.4L 4v DOHC GT500/GT powerplant is quite simply----THE MOST CAPABLE MASS PRODUCED ENGINE TO EVER HIT THE MARKET. THIS ENGINE, UNTOUCHED---CAN MAKE 1000+RWHP ON RACE GAS AND STAY TOGETHER, JUST ADD MASSIVE BOOST.
The 5.4 is a TRUCK motor. It was an after thought that they stuffed into the Mustang and slapped a SC on it. Same crap the did with the Ford GT (not the mustang version)
>>>CHEVROLET HAS NEVER PRODUCED AN ENGINE INCLUDING THE LS7 AND 638HP LS9 THAT HAS THE POWER POTENTIAL OF THIS LITTLE 5.4. IT IS AN AMAZING ENGINEERING FEAT.
Who makes Duramax??
A FEW MORE FACTS AND IM DONE.
-THE 11 STANG 5.0 VS 5TH GEN CAMARO SS
STANG USES LESS GAS
16/24 manual 17/24 auto. Great point. The Camaro only gets, oh wait a second, 16/24???? How can that be, the Mustang get's better MPG?
IS LIGHTER
Hey, you got something right, Great job!
HAS A MORE ADVANCED POWERPLANT
Try again.
COST LESS
Nope, wrong again. Mustang is more expensive if you compare a 2SS to a top of the line 5.0
AND DRUM ROLL..... NO MATTER HOW MUCH THE HATERS CRY AT NIGHT..
THE 2011 MUSTANG GT 5.0 IS FASTER AT ANY SPEED..... THATS A FACT
MOTOR TREND CAR AND DRIVER ANY MANY OTHERS CONFORMED IT..
THE 2011 ALSO USUALLY ACTUALLY LAYS DOWN MORE RWHP THAN THE SS, USUALLY AROUND 375-390RWHP... FACT
This was what put me over the edge with your idiotic rant. You will not see a 5.0 put down anywhere near 390rwhp with out LT's, a CAI and a tune, PERIOD! The motor isn't rated for enough HP to get those numbers to the ground. Please, edjamakated yous self before you make stupid comments like this.
I have a dyno graph of a 2011 WITH LT's and a CAI that just barely hit 390rwhp on the same dyno on the same day that my Camaro put down 412 with the exact same mods, by the same company, only WITHOUT a tune.
MAYBE I'LL JUMP IN MY CAMARO AND GO FIND A STANG TO BLOW OFF THE ROAD.... JUST NO
(You should KNOW correct the correct version of the word too, but obviously you don't)... THAT WONT HAPPEN, YOU WILL LOSE HARD, AND BE EMBARRESSED, DONT DO IT!!! AT LEAST YOU CAN TAKE OUT A 4.6L 3V STANG BY A VERY NARROW NEGLIGABLE MARGIN. EVEN A 4.6 WOULD BE TOTALLY A DRIVERS RACE. BETTER FIND A STOCK FOXBODY TO BE SAFE, OR 2V...
Only a tool would attempt to do something as stupid as race another person on a city street. If you are one of them, please feel free to introduce yourself to a tree the next time you feel the urge to endanger the lives of others on the road to satisfy your 16 year old stupidity
AS A CAMARO OWNER, AND FORMER STANG OWNER MANY TIMES OVER, ALL YOU HATERS ARE PATHETIC..
As a 5 time Mustang owner and 2 time Camaro owner, the rivalry is awesome, keep up the great work guys/gals!
