Cammed 99 Cobra
I am sorry you dis-agree but the dyno does not lie. And to say it is not happening, I had full bolts ons with 312 at the wheels and added Comps racing/limited street use Cams and gained 69 at the wheels, the grind is XE278AH. But again, sucks that you dis-agree man. More power to me I guess with so many people under-estimating me. But thanks for your replies.
It is a 99, want to make it all motor, still havent ported the heads or intake manifold. swapped the IRS for a built solid rear.

Don't quite understand the "so many people" comment. I count only 2. The rest are giving you props. Any chance that you still have the 8.8 housing from the IRS? It's what I use & am looking for a spare.
ive seen two cammed modulars in my life and they both sounded great. never got to hear them at WOT so if youd like to post some vids of that itd be great 
props on doing something different in the mod motor world.

I'm sorry you can't take constructive criticism and refuse to believe the masses that actually know what they're talking about. Regardless, car sounds good.

That's a generous dyno then. The 99 Cobra's had the worst heads as well as the shittiest intake casting flaws. So, it has nothing to do with my opinion, it has to do with simple facts. I can go and find plenty of other 98/99 Cobra's with cams and full bolt ons making quite a bit less than you, IE 10-20rwhp less. Also, 312 to the wheels with full bolt ons isn't the norm but I'll attribute it to the generous dyno.

Sounds great man! What is the weight of your Cobra and have you taken it to the track yet? Don't sweat the disbelievers, many people don't believe my daily driver ran 11's either with so few mods.

He's been to 3 dyno's with proven numbers... don't blame the dyno, the dyno is just a tool to tune... and numbers are just bragging rights
to the OP, less numbers and more racing! I wanna see you go against a mild H/C LS1
Car sounds great

Psi has nothing to do with the equation, I frequent the FI section daily and have seen less numbers with more psi and more modifications and a more "efficient" set up.

Yes, it's helping him to understand that his "dyno numbers" are a fantasy and that he's going to be really disappointed when his car doesn't perform on the track or on the other "track".

They are, but I went all out and got the 106500's. Figured since I was doing it I might as well go all out. Next thing I will do is port the heads and port the intake manifold, or go with a more aggresive manifold. Gonna do some weight reduction and finish building the suspension, almost got it all done.
And I have went from a roll with a Camaro SS that has some bolt ons and a cam, not sure what kind, but he has 368rwhp and runs 12.2's at the track, i beat him out by about 2 feet, i could look out my window and see his front wheels when we hit 120. Since I got the cams, my powerband is crazy, revs all the way to 7500, that is just what i set the limit to, all my power it mid and high rpms and 4:10s to help me get there.
I seen a stock camaro run 12.56, with drag radials only. That was shocking.

i really have no problem believing his numbers, my very good friend has a 99 with just catback and intake and made 280 290 going through 4.10s on a mustang dyno. i can see 312 with full bolt ons
