By the time you get to 150mph, the GT350 is several seconds ahead. The 119mph trap speed of the GT350 shows you how capable it is.
The Voodoo engine pushes out over 70hp with 1.8l less displacement than the LT, yet it isn't significantly better than the LT? It does so without direct injection to boot. I don't know what world you're living in, but to me...70hp is friggen huge. No disrespect to the LT, but at least give credit where it's due. Any one of you would give their left nut for the LT to produce an extra 70hp NA direct from GM. Many would then praise it's engineering marvel.
Ford didn't just "compete" with the LT engine. It kicked it's proverbial ass.

Lets not be silly Fanboy. You were doing so well up until here. Lets see what the GT350 (non R) does on the track before we talk about an ass kicking. After all a car is more than just an engine. While the Voodoo is a sweet powerplant it's only as good as the platform it's in.
