So I would like to throw this out there on what people's opinions are about this. I would like "mature opinions" if that's possible lol...none of this "Ford rules" and "Mustangs are better than GM/Pontiac" crap lol.
My Mach has 85K on it, STS, CAI, lowered, rear LCA's. My only other plans were aluminum driveshaft and flsfc's. It's a DD as will be the GTO.
I can't get over the LSX motors and their potential...full exhaust, CAI and tune people report upwards of 380 hp...add a cam on that and you are at or over 400. I don't see that happening with the Mach not to mention FOUR cams to buy. Neither car will/would get a blower. It would stay N/A and a fun street car.
I'm not a brand specific...I accept and respect all fast/fun cars, so give opinions un-biased if possible.
Problems I see are maintenance/part availability for the GTO harder than the Mustang scene obviously, but not in terms of motor mods.
Anyone have both or owned both?? I'm just beginning this thought process. I have looked on GTO/ LS forums to see basic problems/issues. Nothing seems to really jump out at me any more than the potential "4V tick" (not really an issue with MY car but in general).
I put this in the Mach1 thread b/c I have the feeling the Cobra guys will sh!t all over the idea sine they think they own God's gift to cars lol.
