That just seems so wrong to trade a perfectly good Camaro on a Cobra. But since GM won't pull their heads out of their asses I can't really blame you.

Well they are a fun car to drive being blown and all. Just sell the blower and buy a Kenne Bell, some LT's, and a set of street slicks and run some low 10' or high 9's.

those are fun rides, yeah either a new blower or just some pulleys, full exhaust, and slicks and you'll be well ahead of the pack.


have fun with the shitty gas mileage tho, thats their only down fall, and yeah and a cam job requires u to purchase 4 cams!!! haha lol o well what can ya do! props to u on the good deal!!

Yeah stock cams would sound good to me... Maybe just a nice set of 32 Jesel shaft mounts... Nah, still too pricey.

Good choice.

Jump on over on SVTPerformance.com and introduce yourself.

Wouldn't bother with cams, or heads. Just get that thing to breath (CAI, Exhaust, Pulley) and you're in the 11s.

I have an Accufab Polished Plenum / Throttle Body (Single Blade) up for grabs off my car. $425 shipped ($580 new)

No offence, but even if your in the 9's and getting 40 MPG your still in a Mustang and look like a fool in my opinion. Yes I am the resident Mustang hater... why not just buy a 20,000 mile SS for 17K and throw a Procharger on it?

I need to put my 500 rwhp 388 ci SS up for sale. Only 25k miles, and it would have been alot cheaper than the Cobra
