Where do you get your info? Is it legit? an 02 WS6 dynos around what....305, 310?? It won't hang with the WS6

The LS1 dynos higher, it's a little bit lighter, and it has a six-speed, so of course it's gonna be faster...but it's not much faster.

[jparris]

It is faster. That is all that counts. Plus, gotta love the ttops!

yes it will still be fatser but the new mustang will compete. thats the only point i was trying to make is that it will compete. (the old mach1 competed just fine with the same power ratings as the new gt) and many of the times when a mach races an ls1 its a drivers race so it will compete. and on top of all that the mustang is only 24k and is much higher quality than the ls1... but if the camaros extra 20 hp is worth that to you than to each his own.

Well, I think the LS1 is better than the modular 4.6 (I've never liked the modular 4.6), and that six-speed tranny is very strong, but other than that, the Mustang is just superior, and has been since 1994.

well, i like the mod 4.6 better, more technology... i still think for should have gone with a 302 ohc. or at least a 289 ohc (4.8L) that woulda been sick. but it does live up to its heritage of the "Pony car" ford just needs to start offering bigger engines like the good ol days.

Like I said earlier, I'm glad that they have the 3-valve design now. If they're gonna use just 2 valves, they might as well keep it OHV for the low-end...the V6 is now a 2-valve OHC design.
