I say, let em believe what they wanna believe. Any true motor-head knows how to research a car and knows the real deal. ...

...One thing that we can't unfortunatly deny now is that Ford now has the Longest Running Production Model from the "Pony Wars". They can always hold that **** over our head. Makes ya wanna run into GMs board of directors meetings with an uzie doesn't it?!

OH **** YEA!!!

Its also like a girl in a Jetta (for some reason they just seem to be hot. Maybe its where I live only) or a girl in a Jeep.

Girls in F-bods, Jettas and Jeeps always seem to be ******* HOT or CUTE as all hell!!!

then you could go into why DOHC cam cars dont NEED cams to go fast, and how theyre mostly a sound mod for cobras, especially the 03/04s

SN-95 Windsor (1994-1995)
SN-95 Windsor SVT Mustang Cobra
Manufacturer Ford Motor Company
Production 1994–1995
11,267 produced
Platform FR SN-95
Engine(s) 5.0 L Windsor V8
Transmission(s) 5-speed T-5 manual
Ford introduced a completely re-styled Mustang for the 1994 model year, but the vehicle was mechanically similar to the outgoing model, and rode on a version of Ford's aging Fox platform. Ford re-introduced the Cobra for 1994 featuring the new styling as well as larger brakes, a revised suspension setup and wider wheels than the outgoing version, but the engine was essentially a carryover. Essentially, all mustangs besides the 03-04 cobras were crap. Even the guys at the Ford camp know that Ls1's are better then that 4.6l crap.
changed it!

Ok, I've got my edit done and saved.

Hopefully someone can read it before it's changed back.

They didnt mention GM's rating was grossly underated, or the fact that the 4.6 didnt come close in torque.

I did, but like someone else mention it only lasted about a minute. Someone's being gay and just sitting there changing it back right after it get's changed. I've got mine saved. Whenever I get a chance I'll change it back to my version.

I just made a quick edit on it. Hopefully it sticks

"As expected, being smaller in size and lower in compression, the 4.6L DOHC Cobra engine made less power than GM's LS1 engine, equipped in the Camaro Z28, SS, and the Pontiac Trans Am. This engine is also heavier than the LS1 engine, despite it's smaller displacement."

About being superior, no way in hell. But the 4.6 DOHC engines DID make power similar to the LS1. ADVERTISED 305/310 horses in the LS1(standard), 305 in the DOHC 4V. The LS1 does out power it, but as far as similar that statement was actually true.

Also,... look at where the LS1 makes the power. We're faster for a good reason.

Yea but the advertised hp for the fbosy LS1 is a joke. They made 350, just as advertised for the vette.

i believe that 320 rating for the cobra motor is at the FLYWHEEL, while us ls1s make almost that at the wheels....... so as far as similar that statement is actually false

Ohh enough already..

I am by far a GM die hard,but geezus enough is enough. You guys are like little school kids crying because someone pissed in your cheerios..

The LS1 IS an awsome engine by all means, it makes plnety of power and is simple.

What I am trying to say is GM is making its power from CI,and yes no replacement for displacement,but look at the Vette,its making 500hp from a 7L V8, while Ferrari is making about 480hp from a N/A 4.3L V8...Yes yes yes I know it revs to 8K rpm yada yada yada

I dunno bash me if you want,like I said I love the LS and I LOVE GM....but one day we are goin to have cams over top of those V8 heads...

That is too funny, I'd continuously change it until they allowed it to say LS1's are the best engine, ever.
