I have Mad respect for 5.0's Theres one in my area that would edge me out at the end, every single time... Now Its a lil different.
But if anyone thinks the five O's are slow... You have another thing coming. Get a good driver in one of these things and hope luck is on your side.

Now...
After a few mod adjustments, and using different fuel.

Of course the 5.0 is modded, but doesnt take much for them to be even with a cam stall LS1

i really would love to know how people figure out that others are great drivers? It seems everyone is a bad driver when there choice of car loses but when there choice of car wins, the other guy is a great driver. FYI... ive seen 100s of videos in this section... ive spotted about 3 great drivers. Just because you chirp tires in between gears does not mean you are a good driver. Anyone ever heard of a clutch kick? The reason why you hear most people chirping tires in between gears is because there gas pedal foot is faster then there clutch foot so it throws a quick clutch dump like effect into every shift. Also pay attention to rpm drop and backfires in between shifts... the coolest sounding shifts, are usually the slowest. The fastest shifts, are usually the most calm sounding due to lack of losing momentum and no drive train slack. And with the new 5.0 motor... you have to shift them up top. A short shift will murder them. I shift my car nearly off rev limiter because it will slow down if i dont.

Late to the party... Haha good **** Rob. Hit me up if you wanna set something up? Or if you just wanna run when you get a tune/gears. Whatever works. Hopefully Ill be able to make it to the track soon. Might have some time in the next couple weeks. Saw Jasons run against the 5.0 not to bad
Who's this guy??? 500 hp & you are running high 11s low 12s? 
all I can tell you guys is speed costs money son how fast do you want to go
I have a 4.6 kicking out 500 on the tires running high 11s or low 12s depending on the heat Kenny bell mamouth supercharger and some 315 nittos in the back , its 2008 GT/CS got 28,500 in the whole car includeing the supercharger , if I choose to spend the cash and stroke it to a 5.0 change heads I can pull 1000 only cost me time and about @ $2500, more speed cost money if you got the money you got the speed doesnt matter what you drive , stock vs stock the 2013 stangs are as bad as it gets , watched a 2013 boss throttle Camero LT1 2 days ago
