What year was that GT500? I know the older ones have an iron block and they are heavy and truely crappy cars but the new 2013 GT500s are the best ones to get. Either way good runs and it seems like you coulda taken the chase car too IMO.

Yea them Iron blocks suck IMO and if im not mistaking those iron blocks where 5.4 and the new Aluminum is a 5.8L? feel free to correct me if Im wrong. OhioBorn80 do you have a Forced Induction on your car? if so id say its safe to say the best Mustang to buy is the 5.0 considering how fast your is IDK could be wrong.

The 11-12 aluminum blocks were 5.4.. mine is a 12'. The 2013 went to 5.8l, but all they did to get the extra cubes was to remove sleeves from the cylinders, and coat the pistons. There are a few other difference too though.. cams, injectors to support the bigger tvs charger etc.

Ohio, have you built your bottom end yet? how long have you been at your power level? Have you considered E85?
#39
That would be crazy then... I am actually going to be upgrading my Heat exchanger BEFORE I even upgrade the supercharger.. it will help tremendously this summer with heat soak.. even with the stock charger.

The 5.0's love boost.. They make the power because of 11:1 compression vs. lower for the 5.4. But unless the bottom end is built, I have heard much over 650hp on the stock bottom end is a ticking time bomb.

There is least 6 I know that has made 700-800whp on stock bottom end. All on 93 on lower side and racegas mixed on higher side. Its all in the tune. I dont want e85 cs I cant drive it to ohio and tx. I will stick with 93 and throw some racegas in for safety. Even when I do built engine.
