People mention this all the time. Do they actually think Ford is incapable of making a 500hp NA mod motor?

Good Game it took you just short of a decade to do it.
What late model Ford is N/A 500hp? None, Ford uses superchargers to get there (Can't wait for the new supercharged Z28
).

Reality is the LSx motors are sweet.
They are also popping up in new and old hot rods everywhere. They fit better then the HUGE Mod Motors and have great drivablility and power.
Enjoy your G/F's car, and next time post a kill story in your own car.
Enjoy your rattle trap while he enjoys the comfort of his "G/F's" car. Oh and fyi his car is quite a bit faster than his girlfriends.

Yea it has been absolutely crazy, lately in my life. Aug 14th was my birthday, Aug 17th my dad had to put down my first dog which was basically my mom's dog (my mom passed away in 2002), Aug 22nd I found my dad in bed after suffering a heart attack in the middle of the night and passed away in his sleep, in mid Sept my g/f and I found out we are expecting our first child, and in about a month on Nov 27th we are getting married. Didn't want to **** on your FB post with all that but like I told you, it has been crazy lately. Still unsure if I'm going to be able to keep my Mustangs or not. Never know what life has in store for us. A new job just landed in my lap making over double what I've been making. So has been alot of sadness and excitement at the same time. I'm pretty worn out honestly but have no time to just relax. 
Look I will give any fast car its props, but when it comes down too it all of you Ford guys around talking all this trash about how your almost 10 year newer motors and cars are "destroying" LS1's. Good Game it took you just short of a decade to do it.
What late model Ford is N/A 500hp? None, Ford uses superchargers to get there (Can't wait for the new supercharged Z28). And get your facts straight, more displacement and stroke makes more torque, not air and valves. Big valves can do that same thing as more smaller valves. Saying you have more cams and valves is better is like saying my v10 is better then your v8, because I have more cylinders. When is the Gillette Mach 6 Mustang getting released? Its better since its a higher number.
Reality is the LSx motors are sweet. No one else is pulling big block cubes and power out of a aluminum small block. They are also popping up in new and old hot rods everywhere. They fit better then the HUGE Mod Motors and have great drivablility and power.
The BRAND new 5.0 mod motors and BRAND new 5.0 Mustangs aren't bad with all their technology, and they are Finally making some HP numbers. Good street racing. Enjoy your G/F's car, and next time post a kill story in your own car.

That's not what I mean. What I'm saying is that the Mach is a higher trim level/option package than your run of the mill GT. For example, some magazine had a ridiculous comparison between the new 5.0, SS and the SRT-8 Challenger which isn't on the same level as the other two. Therefore, you couldn't compare a garden-variety F body to a...

I think he meant the Challenger srt8 doesn't belong. Although I believe it does, I mean what else are they going to use in the comparison? An R/T Challenger? That's a joke, a well driven Genesis would take out an R/T... its just not competitive with the SS and the 5.0, plain and simple.
