LMAO

Your friends cars don't run accordingly.

Meaning: Your friends cars you have raced don't run like the cars myself and a few others in here are telling you about.

^^ Now what part of that says those cars don't run right? I never directly said anything wrong about those cars, I have no idea what they are or what mods they have etc.

Why are you quoting me with mechanic puns?

You guys remind me of the village. Lol

Did someone just gain intrest in numbers they don't care about? LOL

I think your MAD right now and need to take time to collect your thoughts and reading comprehension.

It's not abnormal for people to do 111 and such in bolt-on ls1 cars. So what's not to believe about your stories?

Do they run like a well suited bolt-on car, I think not.

It eats you up inside or something? Lol

I have seen a lot of 98 Cobras trap 103 MPH stock. They are very tough to ET and get good MPHs. What worked for me was shifting it right at the limiter. Have seen full bolt on ones trap 108-111MPH many times. Not as fast as a LS Fbody but pretty good back in the day

Hioslow went 131MPH at Mason Dixon which is an easy 2-3 MPH slower than Cecil/Atco. His 131 MPH passes SUCKED cause he had a bad 02 on it. He has gone 130MPH with less mods too at the same track. Bet at Cecil with a good 02 he would go 133 easy.

So now he just runs away from bolt-on ls1's with his broken transmission?? And you think the ls1's was proper?....if so your dumb.

Track times and trap speeds mean nothing.

Where are you Cory? There's a ls1 car here w/o headers that I bet would hand you your ***.....not even full bolt-ons....no tune...no ewp...no headers.....just a ls6 intake

Whoever said a bolt on 96-98 Cobra "normally" traps 102-103 in the 1/4 is obviously clueless and needs to stick with Honda's! In good conditions a *stock* car should be trapping 100-102. They indeed will pick up more than 1-2 mph with bolt-ons. I know mine did.

And the other guy that claimed they stink from a roll is also incorrect. That is actually where they shine, with the stock 3.27 gears at least. With a shorter gear like 4.30 not so much, but that's with just about any car.

Oh ok. I was just wondering why someone would go through the hassle of building the short block only to spray what a stock short block can take all day. Is it a wet kit? If so all it needs is a fuel pump. Put one in and spray a 175-shot and really make them mad. LOL

I think you're being a bit conservative with that statement. Give me a car with a 3-4mph advantage and I'll beat you everytime.

They are horrible from a roll. The only thing they have to utilize is the steeper 1-2 gearing.....after that their done. From what I have seen they are lucky to get to 100mph trapps stock and 105 with full bolt-ons.

I edited my other post cause in one post i meant my buddies cobra and in the other i meant stock. His car had to be a 105mph car or slower I walked him so bad. No way my car is 10 mph faster, or atleast i don't think its a 115 mph car right now.

I've been walked from rolls by cars that I've trapped higher than by 3mph or and over and over, same outcome every time unless we went from 60+.
I have also beat cars that out trap me by 2-3 mph.
I have seen it go both ways and everything in between.

very true, he hurt the stock motor and built the new one to take a little more abuse. he has the pump in line 340, just hasnt done anything yet as far as getting it put on and the new jets and tune. i know money has been tight for him right now being he got layed off a month or so ago.

I could have showed you one about two years ago. Are you implying full bolt-on ls1's can't trap 118?
