So were they geared differently?
They look smaller and lighter.
Stock 2000-2004 GT vs. Stock 94/95 GT, who has the edge and why?

I had a 89 5.0, 5-speed, with just a bit of tweeking and it had serious punch out of the hole. It had 3.08 gears in it so thats not it. It didnt need to come on cam to have power. It just had it. Sizewize, I think it was real close to my 2001 GT. Not sure which of the cars would have a edge. In 94, they changed the intake manifold and cam and don't think it had quite the same punch as the previous models but I never drove one of that year.
