Cracks me up how mustang guys wanna compare a supercharged motor to a NA one and then brag about how much faster it is. The fact that ford had to add a supercharger to compete should tell you something about your motor. And with regards to 500hp

See if your beloved stang can pull that off NA.

Tell me about it.
Good vids though I've owned a few mustangs in my past as much as I hate to admit it. No doubt foxes can be monsters in the right hands. Very light and they take to mods like a fish to water. Doesn't take much to have a beast on your hands with one of them.
Now 94-95 mustangs, talk about cars that suck. "Camaros for breakfast, Trans ams for lunch and corvettes for dinner in a HCI 302." Your either high or crazy. I've owned two of those tanks and wouldn't take another if you gave it too me. Stock there 215hp, a really really good HCI will maybe get you 290hp. And thats after you spend another $500 to $800 bucks trying to tune the darn thing. The cars are heavy the computers SUCK and you'll spend a fortune trying to run with a stock LS1. My advice sell it or burn it and collect the insurance money.

I see some people in here don't know much about cobras. OP an ls1 making your power will kill a stock cobra. So throw I/E/Pulley/Tune on the cobra than see how you like it. I've driven a couple 450+rwhp cobras and they roll out.
By the way cobras with upper pulley and a few basic bolt ons will not put down 500 rwhp. They need a ported blower to make those numbers.

And that is alllllll motor little man. But I wouldn't waste my gas on your car. My g/f's N/A Mustang would and has outrun cars like yours. Maybe you should step up to big boy power and graduate out of little girl power.

Well I have both. Stock vs stock cobra will win not buy much. F-body is more like a lexus to me very nice ride,cobra feels like you sit in a pick up. But I like the way cobra looks inside and out. U can buy a KB for 2k used and run 10s all day long without any other mods. I m sure u can do that with F-body since every f-body has a bottle but for how long?

I'm trying to tell ya! http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r...g/HPIM2552.jpg I wish St. Louis wasn't so far. I'd make one hell of a funny video of a little 302 walking a Z28 up and down the road like it was its little dog.

My SS rides very nice I like it maybe because my cobra its more like a track car so it very bumpy ride due to suspension set up.

They didn't "have to add" ****. They chose to make the car DOHC/forged internals/blower from the factory.
They didn't.
5spd Machs in the right hands are low 13s. The automatic Machs are mid-high 13s, if that's what you're talking about.
A good pullied/bolt-on Cobra traps 120mph+... not too many cam only F-bodies can do that.
