I love how there's still an ongoing internet battle over these cars after all these years. Both cars were good bang for the buck and both had their pros and cons as do all cars. One thing that I didn't like about the F bodies was those damn buttons on the radio and that infamous dash cracking. The Stangs had some crap too. All in all fun cars for the money. Some don't realize that you get what you pay for and these weren't "high quality" cars by any means when comparing them to what's built today or the last 5-7 years. A blast to drive nonetheless.

The last time they put the small block OHV V8 engine into a mustang was 1995, with both the 302 (5.0) in the Mustang GT/Cobra and the 351 (5.8) in the Mustang Cobra R.

What I hate is how Camaro fans keep saying that their Camaros make 310 HP to the wheels.They are on an optimistic Dyno because you just seen what they make, Around 290 at the wheel.And don't try to say I have the SS so it makes more.The ram air induction does nothing when you're not moving and even when you are moving it doesn't add much power.Its more of like a pep boys add on mod that gm could add and make more money off of you.The cars, Camaro, Firebird, Trans am were underated,I owned a 2002 Camaro SS 6spd so I know.Ram air or not they make the same power on a dynojet or mustang Dyno because they are the most accurate and they don't inflate your ego like other dynos

In these yrs the Z28 was pitted against the GT. The 6cyl Camaro had no real designation and was pitted against the 6 cyl Mustang. The SS was the performance option just like the Cobra was to the Stang. The SS was the Highest rated spec. HOWEVER, Chevy admitted they downplayed the HP rating in Camaro cause you could get the Camaro for LOTS cheaper than the Vette which had the same motor and they worried rightfully so that people would buy the camaro over the stang if they wanted just pure power. Sure the vette was little better but to a true racer that would be semantics and could get the maro much cheaper (and parts LOL)

I have a 2000 SS, I eat the same generation Cobras all day. Stock for stock. I’m a Ford guy for my trucks but you just couldn’t do better than an LS motor back then. Especially when SLP put their touches on the SS, mine is as it was sold new dyno’d at 350hp. Mustangs are also very frumpy looking, I personally prefer the more aerodynamic sleek styling of the Camaro more IMHO.

4.6 2v vs ls1, yeah this outcome was expected. It's hard to get power out of a 2v 4.6 if you're going all motor. The 3v 4.6 is much better if you're naturally aspirated

@BEBNC1

The 3v 4.6/5.4 are sacks of shit. Internally they're OK....but fuck the heads. I love Ford (and GM)....but my 3v 5.4 was possibly the WORST engine I've ever owned. I should have listened to all the Ford forums before buying that engine.

Faster does not automatically mean better. Everybody factors in the overall package of the car when making a choice, otherwise we'd all just be riding liter bikes if speed was all that mattered. Ford just had a better package, that's why it outsold the Camaro despite costing more in similar spec. The LS1 was decent for it's time but not everyone wants a massive car with Cavalier interior. Chevy even left a hump in the passenger floor board to clear the driveline, and didn't even bother to put a proper dual exhaust on it that's how cheap and lazy they were. The Camaro looks like it's suited more towards floating on water than driving on pavement. But yes Ford guys need to admit the Mustang was slower, even the N/A Cobras - although they still put up a good fight. By 03-04 the Mach 1 was able to keep up and in some cases beat LS1 cars and the supercharged Cobras wiped their asses with them. The moment you sit in a Mustang, turn the key to watch those gauges sweep past the SVT logo, and hear that unmistakeable exhaust note, you know you're in something special. Can't say the same about a Camaro.

I test drove both of these back then. The Camaro was a better driving car.. but was just too hard to see out of. You felt like the Camaro was ten foot longer from behind the wheel. The Camaro was a few hundred pounds heavier too, which did not help. The Mustang was easier to live with as a DD and that's why it sold better.

Man these vids make me miss my 2000 Z28, stupid thing was fast.

I have a 2001 GT Bullitt. It's a well known fact that the 2v mod motor has terrible heads that run out of breath while others are still winding out. Porting helps, but not enough. You need trickflow TW heads to truly overcome the breathing issues. So, you gotta throw money at a 99-04 GT just to get it ready to run close to the 4v. It will outflow a stock 4v with said heads. That'll get you running with those LS motors...as long as you force induction, because the 4.6 low end torque isn't enough either, lol. Yeah, you can beat lots of cars in a 99-04 GT, just slow cars. You wanna go fast? Heads, forced induction, (preferably turbo). It is what it is. At least you'll sound and look better than an F-body. No offense, the Ls motor is terrific, I just love the style of my Mustang, despite the extra money needed to go fast.

This is coming from a Mustang owner the Camaro while having a few quality issues as far as I'm concerned completely stomped this mustang also whoever launched this Camaro didn't know what they were doing Also want to point out that the Camaro all the way back in 93 was using a three link live axle with Panhard rod that Ford would tout and the s197 which is what I currently own 12 years later in 2005 I mean this thing is making 330hp had better suspension geometry than the sn95's 4 Link live axle and the Camaro was lower and wider which is usually a good formula for keeping the tires planted. What killed the Camaro is that like today Chevy kind of neglected the occupants the interior on these didn't age well when it was new and the interior plastics weren't long for this world not to mention and this is sadly a side effect of GM making the fourth gen F bodies a sports car like as possible is the fact that getting in and out of a new edge was a lot easier than any fourth gen and to head off anybody at the pass I had a 96 Camaro RS and a 2001 Mustang and I can tell you the mustangs interior has aged just a little bit better or at the very least didn't disintegrate even though you have to just avoid looking at the place where the center stack attaches to the console because those two dudes who designed those parts weren't talking ever

I had a friend with an 2002 SS that ran a 12.8 showroom stock with stock tires and all, that’s what a 03-04 Terminator Cobra ran with a supercharger, albeit with less cubes. The Mustang has always been just a tad more user friendly and reliable. They always seemed to priced a tad less which always helps. All in all, I’d be happy with either one these days.

Chevy has always needed 350 cubic inches to keep any sort of advantage over Ford with 4.6 or 5 Liters. It was dumb on Ford's behalf to limit themselves to such small displacement. If they would have upgraded the 5.8 Windsor for High Performance and used that as a Mustang engine then the 350 powered Camaro would have nothing on the Mustang.

Jim Garrison the 302 was a good engine, but the 4.6 is a turd of a "performance" engine, LT1's and LS1 were eating 4.6 mustangs for a snack. a slightly modded 3.8 supercharged was faster then that and it had 2 less cylinder. ford no longer uses the 4.6 in a mustang because it sucked

andrew donohue Just what I thought you're one of those fanboys that makes assumptions based on what's written in a magazine, typical GM lover. Fyi, Camaros, Z28s, and Firebirds get their ass handed to them by Mustangs on a regular basis, especially that model. As for the 4.6 in '99 being 225 stock try 260 stock not that it matters anyway. The 5.0 in the Fox bodies had even less than 225 stock and absolutely destroyed Camaros.

i drove a ford F150 wiith a 4.6 it felt like the turd had a 1980's carburated 305. had to floor the POS up hill with a small empty trailer to gain any speed. it was a gutless pig and it was bad on fuel. the only 4.6's that remotely had any balls were the 3V and even more exotic 4V. get out of you disillusion the 93-2002 camaro Z28, SS and the trans am WS were murdering the 4.6... the 302 was a much better engine but for pulled the plug. still a built 302 is still not much of a match for an equally built 350. the 4.6 2V is a worthless "performance" engine. stock for stock the mustang GT was not a match for a camaro Z28 all throughout the 93-2002 time period, its a fact. the fox body was a nasty little car but that is mostly because they are so light, the are great in the straight line in cornering the camaro again kills it, even back in the 80's iroc Z28 5.7 tpi

***** i know theyve both been around a long time. but a dohc 4v per cylinder will be much more efficient per cube than a pushrod 2v design. it breathes better. and it will rev higher. a dohc v8 will always make a good amount of torque. the new 2015 mustang 5.0 can do 11.78 with an intake tune and tires (not slicks). i doubt the heavy maro can do that. we dont need as much torque to go fast and the 2015 is only 20 lb ft less than the camaro and still much lighter. so nuff said

I owned an '87 Firebird Formula 350,and was often beat by 5-speed stock 5.0s. To be honest,it was one of the worst cars i've ever owned. Multiple 700R4 failures, rear discs that wore out really fast( just from daily driving).The L98 seized on me and i had it rebuilt(mild 270/290 cam,1.6 roller rockers) all useless with the stock plenum runners. After the rebuild, the Trans(which was rebuilt by Broward Transmission with 2400 stall extra clutches, B&M shift kit) died again..

Agreed. I believe the rwhp got improved in 2001. Earlier mustangs had different pullys.

I'm glad someone understands Mustang and Camaro are competitors not Mustang and Vettes.

The LSA would be a beast if it was put into an Fbody Camaro, When Chevy came out with the new tank of a Camaro, they kind of lost me as a buyer. I'd take the new 5.0 or any 4.6 GT before that before I got the new Camaro.

Honestly, the Camaro of that year is fast, but (and I'm quoting a car article here) they truly are shitty plastic bathtubs. Very poorly constructed.

Thus backing up my words with my own actions in a 1998 z28 . Also its a fact we 2 so called GM fanboys were discussing this. I told him that I did not think a Stock 96 Lt1 Z28 should be beating 3v GTs,N/a Cobras and Mach 1s . Something no fucking fanboy would say . Because All they would say is stuff you have been saying .

20 years later there almost identical in numbers that it does not matter what car you get. Its all down to the driver.

Oh look at me Iam old and care so much about comfort that I choose the mustang even though it is slower, unreliable ,ugly,stupid,boring, and way weeker....idiots if your a real gear head you get a CAMARO all the time it beats the mustang in everything and the reason why the hump is on passenger is because the car is so sleek that their is nowhere else to put it. The engine is low for better center gravity and pushed back for more balance as a sports car should be that is the recipe to a real performance car that's why bmw Ferrari Mercedes use this recipe and mustang no because it's always been a girl car no girl would drive the CAMARO my wife is actually scared of it .a 6 cylinder yes but they will still be like...

Because in 2003 Ford Released the all new 2003 Ford "Mustang" Svt Cobra, code name "terminator"... Chevy knew about it, and they didn't have anything to back up their plate but a little ls shit motor... Yea that's right, I can see you getting red, so they stopped before it was too late. and to this day, their is this rivalry going on, about who's faster, I honestly don't care, I just wanted to remind you of some history before you keep most likely commenting on every mustang, or camaro vs mustang video you see....

The Mach 1 responded way better to simple modds. Not as well as a ls1 but very very good . The n/a cobra also modded pretty well. My money I would grip a mach 1 or n/a cobra over a 3v GT anyday

Lol my first car was a 1999 GT. I got my ass handed to most of the time. 9 cars later. I drive a C6 Z06. I never even changed my youtube account. Miss my termi as well lol

@cory clark The LS engines make just a little less hp with a 3-4 psi difference

Just personal preference actually....my first car as a freshman in high school was a 2000 SS with an LS1 never did anything to it performance wise, but had nothing but problems....I sold it and bought a 96 Firebird Formula with an LT1...I had a job and since i was still in school I put all my money from my job into it....Only problem I had was the damn optispark got wet (notorious on LT engines) it lasted me all the way through high school until I flipped it a few weeks after graduation.
