With equal hp the LS1 will always win. This should wet your whistle http://video.ls1tech.com/search/cobr...220d323870.htm

For the money, Fox body Mustangs are by far the cheapest and easiest car to make fast. For a stock vs stock comparo, I think the Ford 4.6L is a waste n/a. LSx engines will always beat them. Add in some boost/N2O on the other hand, it just depends on who has the better tune/setup. Terminator Cobras make stupid power with minor mods because they came blown from the factory. "There's no replacement for displacement............except for boost or nitrous!!" Do you a stock looking Z28, H/C/I and a 150 shot......that will be some fun.
