[QUOTE="acobra03, post: 11143213, member: 82665"] I hear you, no offense taken. The GT500 is a much heavier car then the 5.0 so the power to weight ratio is a lot closer then you think. Also, I'm not a consistent driver and don't have much track experience. Like I said, I missed 3rd gear and still ran a 12.01. With a clean 3rd gear shift I should have trapped at 120 or 121 mph with a 11.80-90 ET. The 5.0 motor is a bad ass machine for sure. There is a buddy of mine running low 11's with his 5.0 but he's got 15k into it to get there. I've got maybe 3k into mine with a decent driver should run mid 11's. In the end, a worked 5.0 is still a 5.0 but the gt500 will always be a Shelby. Good luck my friend. [/QUOTE]
