after googling ls3 vs 5.0! Just kinda funny. I see ls1 t\a's an camaros with 180k+ or more still running the new 5.0s an doing pretty dam good agent's them. The ls1 has proven its self over an over to b cheap an super reliabile.. wont except any less from a ls3.. Put 150k to 200k on ur 5.0, 4 cams, 2 timing chains, an 32 valves an all thoes dam moving parts on thoes heads an see what lets lose.. more parts, more price to replace an repair..

If my dad was a King I wouldn't have to listen to one sided hill billies talk about has-been cars. But here we are.
Run what you brung dude.
Ohhh so the HP/TQ numbers that Chevy post are real and not marketing.... but the Ford numbers are just made-up bullshit marketing? Oh I see bro. Its all made up, were all clueless and you are in on the truth. Please expose us.
Even if we assume what you are saying is correct. The margin is very little and the coyote has 1.2L less displacement per cylinder.
You remember when chevy nutswingers were losing their minds and refused to acknowledge that the 5.0 would make these power numbers? And then when they came true it was all about the 5.0 being maxed out? Nope and nope. Too bad.
If HP numbers are truely marketing, especially for Ford....then why did the 03 Cobra post up 390HP/390TQ as engine production numbers? If those numbers were true then "bolt-on" LS2 Camaros would have competed if not wiped the floor clean with that car. But it didnt happen.
Do you happen to have link(s) that support your claims of the following facts: Chevrolet Camaros have: A) A larger aftermarket B) Cheaper parts C)Responds better pound for pound better than the 5.0 Coyote?
Because I have plenty of links that say that in the very worst situation Mustang still competes neck and neck. And in more realistic conditions are better. I know with absolute certainty that the Ford Mustang has statistically the largest production aftermarket of any car period right now.

Nice random Youtube find, Marc
Hammer in denial as always, vettes being compared to Mustangs as always.
There seems to be some hope of a new Camaro that is not an embarrassment in the near future. Sweeeeet! It needs to redeem itself for sure.
The new LT1s run well!

IIRC, that was a tuning issue where tuners let the car run too lean.
Um...have you ever seen a cop car, taxi, or limo? There are a few million of those that would disagree with you. Though I'm sure there are at least as many SBCs out there, hence why I said "one of."
