The quickest bone stock 392 Challenger I could find went 12.25 @ 113 mph

The quickest bone stock 2010+ Camaro I could find went 12.43 @ 112 mph

NOTE: This is a corrected ET, and while I am a "you ran what you ran" type of person, will use this ET in deference to the Forum on which I am posting.

The quickest bone stock 2011+ Mustang GT I could find went 12.22 @ 115 mph

I also did average ET's (ya, quite bored). I couldn't find a "bone stock" Mustang 5.0 list, but if someone knows where one is, link it, and I'll do the math.

Average Challenger 392 ET based on above link: 12.76
Average Camaro SS link based on above link: 12.86
NOTE: About of third of the Camaro SS ETs were corrected, but like I explained above, I used them anyway.

I suspect the Mustang average is pretty close to both of those. In the end, their performance is pretty danged close, IMHO.
Since youre using corrected times for the camaro you should do the math and correct the 392's and 5.0's. Especially the 12.2-12.5 times that are getting ran well above 1000ft da.

The 392 will walk a LS3 with everything being equal. The 392 vs 5.0 with all things equal is one hell of a race with me giving a VERY slight edge to the 392. It could very easily go either way tho. Now for the L99, ehh nevermind.
