Wow!!!!! 422rwhp with a f-n blower. 
Why would you post that up? If anything you just proved everybody elses point. LS1's are pretty close to that cam only with bolt ons.
So lets see here:$ 2,000 for a cam only ls1 or at least $6,000 for a supercharged Ford that makes about the same power. Smoke another one bro.

LOL ya'll are missin my point. I am disaapointed in GM because they stopped making the Firebird/TransAm. Since 02, they have yet to come out with a v8 RWD sports car thats comparable to the 27000 stang gt! Sure, they came out with a expensive *** caddy & kept the corvette goin, but nothing really comparable to the Mustang GT. Quit bringing in all these other categories! GM ****** quit on us, if everyone on this site wasnt so one sided & just face the facts. Fords mustang will remain dominant until gm gets it right. If this new camaro doesnt work out, i wont be surprised if they quit again.
Do you think GM wanted to stop making the fbodies? They were low on money, couldnt spend it to make a new one at the time, plus there was some kind of contract between them and the Canadian plant they were made in.
All your doing here is trying to start trouble, the least you could do is come up with some kind of legitimate argument, not something moronic like hp/l.

Edit: Sorry I guess I was talking to lightning bolt. I think they weigh pretty close to the same. The mustang I think is a 100 lbs less. And I love cam lope if anything I think that's advantage cam.

Ok fellas, whether I'm right or wrong, let it go. This guy could probably give a crap about being competitive. I'm one of those people as well. I sold my low 11 second Lightning, which was capable of going deep into the 10's for my current WS6. (Which I love BTW!) This thread is going nowhere. Let it die.

LOL I dont blame you. FORD is advancing & GM isnt, in the V* sports car category. GM has produced nothing to compete with the GT's. GTO is crap, kinda why it lasted 3 years lol. Hopefully the camaro will get here soon enough & not too late, especially with gas prices! Why a mach 1? Get the cobra!

I didn't read this long thread but if thats what you want go for it. I'll see you in my rearview mirror. I think its a good looking car but just not as fast as a LS1. If your not into going fast do it.

he wont have to worry about his rear end breaking but the tremec 3650 will defintily explode with any real power.
Then look into the fuel setups. Everyone goes with 03-04 cobra tanks, and needs to make it a return fuel setup to make any real power.
WHile the ford 8.8 rear end is better then a 10 bolt, it still will break, and is not as strong as a 9 inch. The modular motor is alright, but 4 v cobra motor is definatly better.
My end point would be a mach 1 is a decent car, but i wouldn't buy one to go fast. Well if 12's is fast, then have fun, but if you want anything more, id stick with the ls1.

Ps. I almost bought a mustang, even drove a couple. Im glad i didn't.
