I thought it was funny that when you click Discussion at the top, a picture of a sweet Camaro is shown.

no, the cobras were mainly designed to compete against its formidable f-body counterparts. Its because the pony mustang GT, was still a very affordable lil muscle car that appealed to many, but others bought from GM because of need of POWER. Then the Cobra came along, to steal from GM F-body sales, and i hate to admit that it worked! The cobra was not intended to compete against the two seater corvette. That was the job of the Ford GT.

Dude, you SERIOUSLY need to research and learn before spout'N off.

You will find your answer in this one SINGLE question: How did the 03/04 Cobra get the nickname "Terminator"?


Nuff Said.

yeah! im biased as heck! I hate ford! GM is superior in every single thing over ford: EXCEPT for the 03/04 cobras. And the the dumb shelby took over the cobras, and put crappier rods in the new gt500's, so the Terminators can STILL handle more power than any other production mustang, hell! even more than any other production muscle car, PERIOD!

You obviously Don't. But...since you feel like going to school today: The Cobra was nicknamed "terminator" because it was designed to terminate the competition. Including GM's Corvette Z06.

If you'd Like.....I can google it, and find the quote. Actually...You can. I have already given you enough information to correct your Misinformed self.

ANd although the GT500 has H-beam vs. the 03-04 I-Beam rods.....the GT500 Has and can easily handle 800RWHP....per the KB Blower.

However true that is.....that is a ricer rebutle (IMHO). ALL OF US have the smarts to know (hopefully) that the 'ford high end' was not designed to compete with the 'chevy high end'.....don't forget that main fact.

sorry idiot, it was never intended to terminate the z06. there are so many morons on this board. Ford never expected a heavier less powerful mustang, to be able to out perform the more powerful, lighter z06.

Ur like the typical mustang, non cobra, owner. plain stupid, y r u even here?

You don't have to buy a louie vuitton supercharger...Granted twin screw, polished, will cost more, 3.5k-7+ seems to be the range though.

the ford high end, is the Ford GT
the chevy high end, is the z06.
The ford GT out performs the c6 z06 on the track, road course, and the drag strip...
the z06 has better braking ability, but thats about it...

I agree...not sure where everyone comes in on that picture...hell, even I know the LS is an LS is an LS, and was seriously under rated...adn I am by no means an LS expert.


But, i do think the 321 mentioned in teh article is a tad on the upper end. Just like machs have seen 295......not very common, and highly not the norm.

True.. I heard that might have been with the paper filter pulled. I've seen many of my friends put down 305+rwhp but that doesn't mean **** coming from a nobody on the internet. An article with actual proof carries a bit more weight.. (which is why you see that all the time)
