Not so fast... The LS engines are 1-8-7-2-6-5-4-3, same as non -Coyote Modular Fords... The new 5.0 is 1-5-4-8-6-3-7-2. The fact of the matter is, the Ford has a more conventional Muscle car derived exhaust setup than corresponding years of LS stuff, and yeah, IMO it (Mustang)does sound better in stock configuration.
Alas, Stock sucks... And I only have a vague recollection of what they sounded like when they were stock.
