If that's the case, I had a 2.0 liter that made 300 lb ft of torque at 3200, and it was much faster than my m

Maybe you should re-read my post!
The S65 has 85% (251 Lb/Ft) of peak torque available at 2000 RPM.
The highest torque rating of any 4.6 liter mustang I could find was 325 Lb/Ft from the 2010 3V engine and that peak is at 4250. I doubt they make a boat load more torque below 3000 than the S65. I would welcome you to give me more info on the torque curve though!
P.S.: The whole torque gets you moving and horsepower wins races crap is just that.... CRAP! You can't have horsepower without torque. Horsepower is just math to express force (i.e.: TORQUE) delivered over time.
