That's the problem, and my biggest gripe with the GT500: it weighs about 4000 pounds. I don't know if it was the motor, or the chassis reinforcement, or what, but that's just unacceptable. Even if the motor does match the LS7's power output, it's still quite a bit heavier and using forced induction. I think Ford could have done better.
