I get what you are saying and I agree but it is what it is and that's what GM has given us.

I did read that the redline for the new 5.0 hasn't changed so it will be interesting to see where it's power ends up. The BOSS made 444 at, what, 7,500 rpm? With the 5.0 not revving that high, I don't see how it will surpass it. It seems like Ford is trying to maximize low end torque knowing the LT1 will decimate the 5.0 there.
