Bitch, I ******* street race. When I was out last Thursday the clutch started slipping bad. You want to see a ******* vid you stupid lil ho? I don't make excuses, and definitely don't need one to bust your *** down the 1/4 mile.

And by STOCK I mean STOCK pulley. That 12.3 pass was on a 1.75 60' and the clutch slipped some on the last 320 feet, which resulted in the low MPH. The car trapped 122-113 on stock pulley all day.

Lastly, I don't give a **** about stalling a burnout. My SECOND time EVER at a track and FIRST TIME EVER doing a real burnout. I got the heat in them and didn't give a **** what anyone had to say about it. If it was so funny, I'm surprised no one said anything to me at the track? Where you there??


STOCK means STOCK pulley. Who cares about an exhaust and intake.



Just because most people can't run 12.3 on stock pulley doesn't mean no one can. You **** boys need to tighten your game up



She traps 118-119 now, and probably will be at 121 mph before I add any more power mods.

I am almost willing to bet an 03 Cobra motor without the blower would still beat a LT1 car stock for stock, if you want to get technical.

Damn man, your car runs hard. Hows the T56 compared to the auto? I honestly think its the best mod I have done, but I don't drag race too often.

This post has turned into nothing, mods should lock it!! Just my honest opinion

If are not a competative drag racer it could easily be your favorite mod for the fun factor.

Yeah thats basically what I was saying. The 6 speed will not 60 ft as easily as the auto, but like you said it should show a little gain on the top end. I was just seeing how he liked having to shift it rather than the car doing the work.

I haven't tracked it yet, like I mentioned I have 3.89's for it, right now it has 3.50's in it. I'm enjoying it on the highway runs at the moment with them longer gears, rowing through them on some pulls at the 60-70mph area pretty much just decimates anyone. 3rd tops at 110mph, 4th tops out at 140mph..at the top of 3rd is when the race is usually over by a few lengths..

As far as fun factor, 100 times over what it was with the Auto, no questions asked.

I haven't been to the track yet, I'm waiting for a stronger rear end, mine hates me right now and yells at me whenever I drive it LOL. I'm hoping for high 11s with my street setup, I'm not on sticky tires and probably never will, mabye a road race style tire but that as far as I'll go.

But with the 4.10s I'm turning about 1800 at 65 mph wheres the 3.50s put you? But post up some links if you get some vids of it at the track, or street

the 99/01 cobra motor is essentially the same as the mach 1 motor, the cobra 4v is a very different motor

if you aren't going to get them, just stick with your 10-bolt
