JS...I know...just thought I'd put that out there. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

LS1 in my Cobra? Would be cool from the factory, but prolly not something I'd do after the fact - though it would be insteresting. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Instead, I rather do something a buddy of mine did...he has a modified 5.4 Navigator motor in his 97 Cobra. The thing idles like a stocker, runs on pump gas, and just made 436 RWHP on a MUSTANG dyno (typically read 20-40 HP lower than a Dynojet) through a stock catback. Neat. Not a cheap thing to do right now though. Perhaps one of these days.

Damn, amazing what a few CI will do to a shitty mod motor Does this have stock cams/heads??

Bob Cosby

Stock ported Navigator heads, reground navigator cams with a custom profile, and a very custom intake. It has a good set of pistons and good rods, stock crank. If you want to read about the details, here is a link. Be advised that it is probably the longest tech thread the Corral has ever had...

Al Papito is the guy's name. He raced Pro Stock bikes up till a couple of years ago, and knows his way around a 4V motor. Nobody has ever done anything like this before, and he has a LOT of work and money into the project.

If you want to skip all the middle stuff...click on the last page for his latest dyno info.

Bob Cosby

Damn...if you guys get together on May 31st in BG, and Mr 01-Z stays "bolt-on" just for the event, and Rageman can drag himself up from Texas, and Larry makes it out there, I just might have to take a day or two's leave and come on out myself.

Perhaps we could have a little shootout inside the race? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Bolt on shoot-out,baby! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Bob Cosby

hehe. I know 2 or 3 other 11 second bolt-on Cobra's that may or may not want to play. Would be fun. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

If this actually materializes, it will be an awesome event! Bob, please tell me you are the fastest N/A bolt-on Cobra out there. I can't handle it if there's anyone faster than you. I'll cry. <img border="0" alt="[whiner]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cry.gif" />

Bob Cosby

LOL. I don't claim to be the fastest anything, However, the guys I'm thinking of are (or at least were) a tick or two behind me. 2 of em have 98's, and one has a 99 with very similar mods to mine.

Oh, excuse me, Bob, what I meant to say was are you the fastest "internet ET" N/A bolt-on Cobra out there? If so, that's good enough for me.

Bob Cosby

LOL. I think so, but one never really knows for sure. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

ok guys, i will try really really hard to be there. bob if i go you want to drive that way together?

Bob Cosby

Possible Larry, though I would likely leave from work (Norfolk, CINCLANTFLT area), and can't pin down a time. Also, I will be trailering the car.
