Lol, no stock 5.0 will beat a stock 5.2 from a dig or any other speed unless you can’t drive

This is laughable.

A stock A10 5.0 will beat or tie a stock gt350/r in a straight line. this is pretty damn well documented.

Last time I was at the drag strip I witnessed a 350 trapping 113 mph. Sad.

Some guy with a 21 a10 stage 3 roush and 400 miles on odometer wants to trade straight across for my 19 gt350r with 12k miles on it lol

Am I fool for telling him no?

Are you kidding? Maybe if the Roush had $40k in cash in the glovebox.

 

[NFG19]

Doesn’t the 350r vin as a Ford?

No idea! I can’t afford one yet lol
I read somewhere that the roush come back as just a gt. That they are difficult to get financing for.

Certainly have not driven one or ridden in one. I am Assuming you have a gt350 variant. Can you elaborate on the missed experience? I mean i could listen to that voodoo all damn day with a excrement eating grin on my face. But its certainly not only the motor im missing out on.

Owning both a 2020 GT PP1 and last week adding a 18 GT350 to my stable I can say the GT350 is a different experience. It’s mainly the suspension however the brakes make a difference too. I’ve always wanted a Shelby and there may not be another manual transmission GT350 in the future so I didn’t need a whole bunch of arm twisting to buy the Shelby and it just may be partially because it’s a new toy to me, but it rides and handles much better than my GT that has Steeda springs, sway bars, camber arms, vertical links, subframe braces, cradle and diff lockouts, adjustable toe links, LCA bearings, toe link bearings, ARH headers, Magnaflow exhaust, Whipple Gen 5 and I’m sure there’s a lot I’m forgetting, but the GT350 is the first car I’ve had that I don’t immediately want to change the suspension (although it needs more power)

Does your pp1 have mag ride as well? Mine does. And i almost have the steeda catalog as well. Sway bars and end links are waiting to go on right now and then its pretty much camber arms/plates and k member all i have left. The mag rude was a big difference over non mag ride to me. Though it is really only based off a test drive.

Brakes on a gt350 are a sure step up even from the pp1 car but unless i start some serious tracking or become rich sometime soon not worth a $4000 conversion at this time for my needs.

No, I don’t have MAGA ride on the GT, but I’ve driven a Mach 1 HP with it and the Gt350 still feels better.

Drag racing ? Last time I looked these cars were not marketed as a stoplight king. Try 0 to 100 to 0 and see how many cars can match a GT 350.

Look I get it, you enjoy being a troll. But if your serious, lets meet at Road America or Watkins Glen or, VIR and lets see if you mouth matches your driving skills

 

[GT-DM]

It's not about the swap.
It's about the reason your even considering the swap?

Do you hav reason to believe the flat crank mill has little miles left it her @ 12k?

Cuz that is likely the only reason someone who likes or loves there gt350, would part with it.
Other than for a s550 gt500 perhaps.

Or u drag race alot?

I think u can repair the gt350 engine in future cheaper, vs the loss you will incur in value of your current machine.

If you're a fan of drag racing. & do that a lot. U may actually enjoy the 10 speed slush-o-matic a bit more, if you like putting up consistent #'s on the board.

But overall, U better really want the few things this GT 5.0 has to offer over your Gt350. Very few.
Or just pass. I thk u can find this same swap in a yr or 2 just as easily w/an ad online.
Ur not trading up....
Not from a 30k ft elevation looking dwnward,
upon this idea/swap.

Maybe u know something about your own car we do not know?
Otherwise, keep the Shelby.
A10 - 5.0s are dime a dozen. Fast & fun. Yes.
Not gt350 even w/needing a new short block 1 day is worth the loss.
Now, get a Gt500 on the hook for a swap!
& u got somethin.

Keep ur Gt350 unless ur circumstances are much different than pple thk. Only you know that answer.

 

[Inthehighdesert]

So the answer is no. Big surprise.

i'm talking about an engine not a car. need some help?

Whatever you’re smoking must be friggin good stuff !

lol. Just as soon as you meet me at Irwindale or Bakersfield.

I'll even remove the turbos to make it fair.

don't put words in my mouth, cathy. you have this tendency of going off half cocked and assuming everyone else does. at bestyou're a hypocrite, at worst your wrong assumptions have lead you to wrong conclusions.

furthermore, you're acting like a woman who's meatloaf has been insulted. its unflattering.

its a flippin motor, dude. no car is perfect. quit being emotional about a powerplant.
