630 is decent. if you have the stock block, you will have cap walk with enough time running over that. happens all the time. the internal's stength has nothing to do with the block's main cap limits.

????????????strong for its day? are you kidding, lol, they will still destroy 90 percent of the cars on the road with just a few mods. Termis are still beasts... don't know what you're smoking.

I agree, I don't know what the hell he's talking about with this main cap walk stuff. Cobras take 600+ all day for years. You're a perfect example

Yeah, guys I do have to agree with it being ugly. To the guy that says cobra's can not take 600hp for very long I would like to know what you have been smoking. But anyway I do not know how long it will take me to save up for the injectors and the tune but I just picked up a 302 teksid stroker motor that will be going in my car in the very near future. Hopefully I can make enough power with the ported eaton to get a decent rematch when it is finished.

Y is everyone so shocked? As soon as i seen the stock blower on the cobra i knew it was gonna be real ugly. Ive watched a ton of dyno pulls from lingenfelters youtube page and ive always thought that their numbers were on the low side. G8 might go elsewhere and dyno 600, this right here proves why dyno numbers dont mean ****.

To the cobra owner. IMO id say throw a kb or whipple on that thing and go give him hell!

i might know a little more about it than you. 600+ longevity and rebuildabilty depends on how often it is run hard. not all day for years for the average termi.

the teksid is exactly what you need for big power and durability. it's why i only use them for my builds.

Some of my closest friends have cobras and we work on them all the time. As a matter of fact two of them are in the mid 600s. And check my username on svt. I've been a member for years. I'm sure some people have had issues but it is not the norm.

Edit: I just glanced at those links. Those are not the norm at all and both those cars made WELL over 600rwhp.

The motor that came out like last year? Forever? For ever ever?

The OP tells you where to view the mod lists. H/C Blower is a hugely vague statement... Wait till you hear its a 418 stroker... you might think anything under 900whp is a disappointment.

The termy blocks that I have seen destroyed were not caused by the block letting go. Generally it's a piston or rod that lets go first then the block gets taken out. With a good pistons and rods and a good tune a terminator block will run 600+ for years.

Yes sir here is mine getting ready for 20lbs of boost...

I agree with you. Personally I would have rather had the gopro as the little view.

That G8 is sick. Kind of thought it would be a closer race.
