They listed various mods for the SS and I didn't know what 2 of them were.

Idlers = Idler pulley
2.8 = smaller than stock blower pulley

both used to up boost on an eaton cobra

Was that the Cobra guy saying "From a dead stop, he'd get murdered"? I doubt the Cobra would win from a dig. They launch like ****.

That would be a 446rwhp H/C setup.
If it's a StageII true LS6 head with a decent cam, it's possible.

There is no freaking way! I have had several street 8th mile runs out of the hole on moded 03's and I have had several cars on them. It looks like camaro lost out on the top end due to lower than announced HP. I would say around 400RWHP, all bolton's, Cam only.

I think the Cobra guy needs to get his **** straight, if the camaro had tires the cobra would get MURDERED. I've done the insane h.p. thing w/ the independant suspension. It plain *** ******* SUCKS!!!!! My wife even said the dude in the cobra needs to recognize he'd get owned. For all who wants to dispute try 600 h.p. n/a and when times were right and extra 300 shot added on top with independant rear suspension with tires, IT SUCKS!!!!!
I've only seen 1 03 Cobra run from a "dead stop", and yes it pulled the wheels. All the other vids of them are from a "roll". Just my 2 cents.
