I was beating LS1s when my Mach was completely bone stock. And I paid $20K for mine with 2000 miles on it, and that was a little over two years ago... I believe low mile F-bodies are still around $20K or more right now.
My best time so far (since our track has been closed for a year and a half) is 13.61@103 with a 2.09 short time and 5800ft. DA that night.... I've got a few more good bolt-ons now than I did back then, and I can only imagine what I would do at sea level with some slicks....
Here's a nice video of a Zinc Yellow 2003 Mach with only a Prochamber midpipe, K&N filter, and 275 Nitto DRs running 12.54@109

You can call BS all you want but anybody with any kind of knowledge of cars will know that a Mach 1 is very well capable of beating an LS1 stock for stock. F-bodies do usually put down more power to the wheels from the factory, but Machs are a few hundred pounds lighter, and have better suspension for launching off the line. The best time i've ever heard of out of a completely stock Mach down to the tires is a 12.8. MM&FF got one down to 13.1 in one of their tests. Give credit where credit is due...
I'm not saying i've never been beat by an LS1, because I have... but I have won more than I've lost. Several of my friends own F-bodies, so I respect those cars, but I can't stand it when someone thinks they are unbeatable. Even my buddies know that I can usually beat an F-body down the track.
Oh, and 2001 Cobras are easy money, by the way.

I'd agree that they are pretty much equal, yes... I didn't necessarily mean that EVERY Mach 1 can beat EVERY F-body. They are both pretty damn quick from the factory, and it usually is a drivers race with those two. Like I said, I respect the LS motors a lot because I hangout with guys that drive them. One of my good buddies is a member on LS1tech, his SN is SuperZ, and he's got pretty much the fastest car here in town. It's got a GT42 turbo(76mm wheel) and TH400, with a stock displacement, fully forged motor. That thing is DAMN fast... fast enough to beat a 2006 GSXR1000. 
(wish we had some video of it) 
All I know is that I'd rather be driving anything that has some American muscle, than any of those gay *** Jap-**** cars.
And Competition Orange is niiiice.... that's the color I originally wanted

Mine is Torch Red, which was actually my 2nd choice so I didn't come out too bad. I like the red and black pretty well anyway. 
And yeah, those new Mustang are quite a bit heavier. I weighed my car at a CAT scale and it weighed 3280lbs. without me in it. I'm sure with some small weight reduction stuff, I could get it into the 3100s pretty easy... some Mach owners have gotten into the high 2000s before driver.
