While i'm a fan of both TA's, Camaros & Stangs ( i've had 3 camaros/ 2 stangs & 1 transam) lets do recall just how well those GM 305's compared to Ford's 302's. Not all to well. It took GM moving up to the 350 before they could get back the bragging rights.
Yeah everyone know's the 350 takes the 302's & 281's, but am i wrong or is that like comparing a 350 to a 400 or 427?

man are you gonna hear it now from some people on here......but i agree
that stang is a freak. you guys did see the maro hang w/ the bike right? some in here didnt believe that i beat a 600 w/ my car. that sticker is pretty funny on the maro.

Pretty sure that turbo 5.0 had more top end than your Eaton. I'm guessing you're around 450 rwhp? Most people that build a turbo stang will have 500 + hp. Don't forget a 5.0 is like 600 lbs lighter.
Turbos are a lot faster than blowers at the same boost. A twin turbo 03 Cobra makes 670 (or something close) hp at only 11 psi of boost.

lol you guys dont know what real engines are unless you've felt the pull of an N/A Olds 455 =P
also you have to give it up to chevrolet for putting out so much power out of their cam in block engines. dunno about you but ford needs to step it up a bit when it comes to performance =P
