send me a stocker or something with bolt ons and stock boost and i got it covered...its the damn pullied cars that become a problem!! thats the only motor that i think responds better to modifications then the LS1. (of course it IS a blower car).

It must've been an '02 Cobra that you raced.

it was between 00'-02' had SVT all over it.. different hood and an airplane wing.. everything besides the wing looked good. but those 4.6 engines are weak.. even supercharged . LS1... all the way...

So, you're saying it was an '01 then.

There are no '00 or '02 Cobras.

I agree...blown 4.6's are slow.

Beating any Cobra besides an '03 isnt that cool. Smoke an '03 and then brag about it. Still a kill is a kill

The pre-03 Cobra is just about neck and neck with a current Mach 1...

There is a V-6 Mustang in my town with SVT badges everywhere on it. Turns out its not hard to get the badges and alot of the V-6 guys like to have people think they are special.

I'm not saying you raced a V-6 or anything. I don't find it hard to believe you smoked a Cobra at all.

What are your mods?

Should this be in street racing?
