Would a full bolt on Ls1 beat a stock cobra?

I'm gunna say it'd be a drivers race with the edge going to the F-body.

But im not expert in either so lets see what the other guys say.

This topic has been beaten to death but im used to reading about pullied cobra's and cammed LS1's.

What year?

I'm gunna take a shot in the dark and guess he means 03-04, as a bolt-on LS1 shouldnt have any problem with any other year cobra if it was stock.

03-04 cobras run around 12.2-12.6 1/4, around 110-114 mph traps. Full bolt on, 4.10 geared (you have m6..do it), could vary well take one. But Driver mod will come into play. I see no reason though, why a full bolt on ls1 couldn't take a STOCK cobra.

EDIT: sorry, kinda off topic...I can't stop staring at Ragged Ride's car. Maybe I should have kept the springs

More like 12.80's-low 13's @ 110-112mph is the norm.

A full bolt on LS1 definitely can beat a stock '03 Cobra. It's really up to the driver.

I thought Evan ran a 12.2....In that case...Cobras are slow.....jk, I know they would (and have) walked all over me

i agree with 99_Z28 on this one. . . too many effin people reference how fast Evan ran with said car. . . dude is like Jesus behind the wheel.

What do you run?


I agree that a full bolt on LS can beat a 100% stock cobra more times than most will admit. The problem is two things............what do people call full bolt ons and stock? Now-a-days thats very losely used (both phrases). Case in point, the OP doesn't seem to be a true full bolt on car. Unless I'm more ignorant on LS's than I thought. But I don't see an LS6 intake listed?

haha get em Mike!

Nit picky bastard. . .

ls6 intake, or a FAST or typhoon or another intake mani, then it will be full bolt on. I am not sure if UD pulley is considered bolt on though......it should be, I would think. Only time we get away from the term "bolt on" is heads and related items, anything internal, or any kind of power adder.

I wouldn't mind a '99/01 Cobra to mess with. Sell the IRS, snag a built 8.8 with 4:30s, bolt-ons, radials and some juice.

I actually want a irs equipped cobra. I would just do bolt on, gears, and leave it as is for a nice DD or something. If I got serious, that is when I would do a 8.8 or 9 inch.
