It might feel that way, but that isn't the case.
The 5.0 generally traps 108-110 stock. That's hardly much faster than a modded 370.
I'm sure it also depends on if you have the optional gears I guess, because the really fast ones have the 3.73's.
The VQ is the complete opposite of the 5.0 as far as power delivery goes, so the lack of a strong torque surge throws most people off. With mods and tuning the 5.0 will destroy a 370z without nitrous or forced induction, but a stock 5.0 is really not out of a 370z's league.
Anyhow, I don't call a car that heavy with only 420 hp a monster, lol...
