Power302 huh? small world. He PM'd me about my setup on another board a few months back. With him in the car it weighs 2950. He has manual brakes/steering, tubular front end, LT's, EWP, etc. Oh and he was running ET Drags too. So there was a lot more done than what you had mentioned. Nice guy though. I told him his car needs more gear and he's shifting the car a little low (6700). I think he was going to put a shortrunner intake on the car next. I haven't heard from him since.

Yeah he is porting another cobra manifold, hes been working on that for a while. He must have added the longtubes and changed to Slicks recently. I got stationed in tucson and he was knocking low 12's when I left home and he called me up fairly recently saying he got into the elevens and didn't mention any new new mods. I told you he had weight reduction done!!! Hell I remember him putting those cobra brakes onto a 4 cylinder mustang, lol. Like I said I'm not THAT into his business but for as little work that hes done that car flys down the 1/4.

So i guess the general consensus here is Me+stall = neck and neck with the cobra?

I dont know man, the way the nut swingers are talking that cobra will run mid 11's n/a... I think with the stall you will suck the plastic snake emblems off his fenders (from a dig)...

put a stall on it.. run him from a dig.. thats your race.. you win..

from roll, story might change a little...

he will NOT be in the 11s with his setup.. he is on crack.. you wont be either.. but you should be closer.. and you should be trapping about the same..

As for you......you're just an igrnorant tool...remind me alot of a guy named burnzilla. Both of you are absolutely clueless to cars outside of the ones you personally own.

"99 Z28 boltons, 3500 stall, hotcam. 12.4@112mph on street tires 1.97 60' (old tune) Coming soon M/T DR's and 11's"

Stalled AND Cammed and only mid 12's? I know the 60ft sucked but only 112mph? Talk a big game with that ET? See I can bench race with the best of them two. My wifes LS1 (A4) with a cutout, lid, and meter trapped 109. Somethings wrong with your setup.

I'm just wandering why take all that weight out of a 94-04 when there is a perfectly light fox in everybody's back yard. Thats some good times for his Cobra and yours Bitemark.

Swapping a DOHC 4.6 in a foxbody isn't exactly easy. Much easier to just replace some parts on the SN95. But I do think a ported head/cammed DOHC 4.6 with a T56 in a notchback would be a very fun car

Someone did a Fox/terminator hybrid.....badass, but it was a lot of work.

I have the weakest cam you can run just about. As for my mph, bouncing off the limiter every gear and shifting at stock shift points dont do much for trap speeds. Dont worry, I will be right there with you come spring.....

YOu'll never believe this..well, maybe.....I saw a guy...probably SIXTY yrs old driving a Geo Metro...he had a wood spoiler on the back and a black wood hood scoop. Bunch of stickers and **** all over it....it was a torquise (sp?) metro...I nearly had to pull off the highway I was laughing so hard.

You will lose, add a gear and a nice stall and that will change the outcome.
