Home slice needs to be careful with the torch before he burns that turd down.

All I know is that if I have to have a passenger filming a run, I'd pick 4pointslow to do it.

Pretty much the same as weight reduction. lol

Good vid.


I thought stock cobro's make 360~. 380 would definitely be on the high end.

For some reason I remember hearing that they put down at the tire what their crank rating was, around 390. I could be wrong.

They were underrated cars. They put out about 420 hp at the crank.

I always heard ~375 was a good average guesstimate, but there are too many variables to find a true constant obviously. For the sake of argument, we can assume this one would run around stock times.

That 5th gen is a cammed 470 whp ls3 car. 232/236 cam

Cobra has a cai and an x pipe. Maybe makes same power as a stock brand new cobras, but the cars are a decade old.

Otherwise stock 2vs with 2.1L KBs throw down over 380WHP with 8-10 PSI all damn day long through a manual.

That cobro needs something changed. #suspect

Oh i assumed it was tanners cammed ls3 car. There were 2 full exhaust/cai 5th gens at dyno day earlier that day... one of them did 408. Must have been that kid. I had never seen that kid out racing and assumed he didn't race.

Yeah that wasn't very smart.

His WS6 ran 13.0 @ 111 mph on a 125 shot with no tune in bad da.

I ran faster time with bolt ons...

He's stock with a muffler and lid though.
