These are not the same 305 HP 4V motors that are in 96-98 or 99-01 Cobra's They are severly underrated do to the 320 claimed hp that the 99's got and did not make, they are a 270+ RWHP compaired to a 255+ RWHP. MM and FF tested the Mach1 Vs. GTO and it is a drivers race the GTO has more power and TQ but weighs more. But the Mach 1 engine is NOT the same as pre 03/04 Cobras. Just my 2 cents.
Damn...... quite an old post, but here's my two cents: Every LS1 seems to be different on how well they run, especially since there are several different varietiations of cars and HP numbers. I have personally beat C5 Corvettes, WS6 T/As, and Camaro SSs, but I have also lost to those same type of cars. I don't consider myself a very bad driver either..... it just all depends on the car. I give much respect to the LS1s, but I have handed them their asses before too.....
