Your car "should" be capable of high 11's on drag radials at near full weight if you put it together right. With a 150 shot, that should be 10's.

However, if your car is 10's capable then that Cobra is 8's capable, which it aint.... the way he blew by you was a asswhooping. You're gonna need another 150rwhp just to make it interesting, and then you are gonna run into a ton of problems trying to get it too hook. You done good for a el'cheapo build, but there really isn't much else left for you to do but start throwing money at it if you want to be at the Cobra's level.

Give you a A for trying, looks like that Cobra just has way too much for you.

Expected more out of the Camaro with those mods. Anything can happen on the street though

Who ported the heads/intake?

Gotcha, didn't mean that to be offensive.

Just noticed you were still on stock 10-bolt with 3.73 gears and 3200 stall. Ouch

Any track times?

All I did was throw a girdle behind mine and it saw 1.7 60's with bolt-ons and worn out DRs in the old LT1

10 bolts can live longer lives behind a 4l60e

You have no business racing a car like that. Not even the same class of car with his mods. He is a full second or more faster than you.

So you think freeway racing has more sence when you could loose control and put innocent ppl life in danger. We had the streets blocked and the only ppl who were there is because they wanted to be there smart guy.

You have no business in this section... go do something useful like polishing your wheels
