Forgive me guys of I'm not in awe of the 03/04 cobra deal. They are good running cars but not the end all beat all. That changes all the time these days.

People can troll no matter what site they are on.
Hell, I've been known to troll on Mustang sites
I don't think that the Cobra is the end all of end all's. It's a neat car that can be made fast for cheap and has a huge aftermarket. Same goes for the 4th Gen F-Body...and some people think that they are the end all beat all car.

03 Cobra runs mid to high 12's stock on crappy tires. How could bigs/littles with gear not take half a second to a full second off? The 03 Cobras have 31 spline axles stock.

They will also spit those axles out....a friend had that happen.
By the way...my car broke 11's with just the swap and no tire (on 18's). It's gonna need the rest of my mods to break the 10's.
Actually a friend broke 11's with just bolt-ons in a f-body....I never had the chance to really try before my buddy stuck it in the wrong gear.

Do you not get tired of being wrong?
+1
The stock shafts are very strong with a soft sidewalled slick. I have several passes in the 10's with 26 x 11.5 x 16 ET streets (not the radials) and have never had a problem. If I were to ever break a stock shaft then I will replace it with another, definitely not going to spend $1500 on the Level 5's that are notorious for having issues.

I have been running MT ET Street bias ply for the past 4 years on stock half shafts.
My latest power is at 615/676 on nitrous. I launch on spray and have gone a best of 10.7@129 w/1.62 60' times.
I don't expect them to last forever with the abuse but a used half shaft for $100 beats the heck out of $1500+ for Level 5s.

I bought my 03 stock, put the mods below in it, ran a 10.82 with a 1.554 60' last time out leaving at 4500 with only an IRS brace and 26x11.5 ET streets.
The stock axels are strong and as Senkak pointed out, cheap to replace if they break. I would not hesitate to add a 100 shot to my setup and not touch the axels. Untill there is a source for reasonable axels for our cars, I'll be on stockers.

If he is as dumb as you are, don't worry. He will just look at you with 
face.
Back to your original idiotic statement...Here is a random pull from a thread.
So you think a 427rwhp Cobra can't break 11's?

And they are more compareable to a cv shaft stop guy. Hondas have half shafts .mercedes benz calls theres cv axles and the look prety much like cobra ones so quit bein a *** even differnt manufactures call the same **** different names
