[QUOTE="ShiftyThePirate, post: 14271645, member: 163467"] Boss is just a forged 5.0 out the wazoo, which apparently the '15 GT is even going to beat stock. Plus it has the M82 transmission that has TONS of issues vs the TR6060s in the GT-500s. I'd get a 2011-2012 GT-500 for sure over a Boss, I used to be a sucker for it, but very quickly lost that when I realized how "downgraded" it is feature wise vs a GT-500, let alone power. 5.4l imo is a MUCH better engine as well to build up. GT-500 I say, no question, as nobody wants the M82 trans, the TR6060 is a far stouter transmission and proven. Plus you are looking at what, 380TQ and 425HP vs 506tq @ just 4k rpms and 560 HP? The Z06 has 505HP @ 6300RPM, if it's the LS7 then just 470-480lbs of torque, so a GT-500 would be the perfect balance, as the Vett is a good bit lighter, but the heavier GT-500 makes up for it with HP\TQ so the power to weight matches.
