Let's look at this. With almost identical 60fts the l/ts went 2.2 mph faster and .23 tenths faster but your are right they want even change it by a tenth lol. Keep sniffing that paint man

11/28/10 1.695 7.780-89.58 10.148 12.150-112.68 LTs
03/20/10 1.692 7.925-87.40 10.347 12.388-110.48 Stock manifolds



Or you can look at the best for both

1/4 mi.....12.092 @ 113.45 Lts vs 12.304-110.94 with stock manifolds

2.5 mph and over 2 tenths faster

 

So let me get this straight you say optimal gears for a Bolton ls1 is 3.73s? Optimal gerars for a bolton 01 cobra is lets say 4.30s. So you think the car going from 3.27s to a 4.30. Is not going to pick up more then a car going from a 3.42 to a 3.73?

 

I swear you can't get any dumber. Look at the dates, those results were ran months apart! Ryan (rygi) was known for improving every time he hit the track. Is that really the best you can do? Real proof? Bolt ons out side of an O/R pipe do VERY little for Machs. Deal with it.

 

No. Both engines make power completely different.

 

Obviously the air may have been a little better or worse but results are results. He said it himself that even after along period between tracking the car it was still much faster with longtubes. Best I can do? lol It is real world results that come from a credible non bias source. So your mach mada 308std with boltons yet there are machs wit full boltons making 340+std. Yea let me tell you. Nothing outside of a xpipe will make power on a mach

I hope you are trolling. If not you are giving Morbid a run for his money on being the biggest dumbass in the S/S of MF.

 

True the 4v makes peak power at a much higher rpm. Further explaining why a gear change in the cobra would be a night and day difference.

 

No, the mach has a 5 spd trans vs a 6 spd trans. Comparing apples to oranges.

 

No ****. So are you saying that a going from a 3.42 - 3.73 is going to more effective then going from a 3.27 -4.30 regardless of the trans?

 

A 4v makes peak much higher? Smh

 

Derp, the trans gearing for a 3650 will be shorter then the gearing for the t56. I mean **** 5spd mach's come with 3.55's and still are slower than LS1's with the longer trans and gear.

 

Yes the LS1 makes peak power at 5200.

 

Does it not?

 

Derp, Doesn't matter you are still adding a ton of gear.

 

No ****. Derp. When you add gear you don't change shift points you just change MPH per gear. If the 3650 is SHORTER than the T56 and it has a 3.27 gear out back it doesn't matter the gearing is still shorter aka it would accelerate faster.

Your argument would be plausable if both cars had a T56 and one had 3.27 gears and the other 3.42. Thats not the case here.

 

Depends on what your trying to do. 3.90's would be optimal for drag racing.....3.73. for street racing.
It's no use adam.....he don't understand gearing. He's not bright enough to figure out that the cobra/mach actually has more gear until 3rd gear even with 3.27's. 3rd gear is about a wash with there being about .1 difference.

 

5400 from what I've seen......just splitting hairs a little.

 

He's just trying to under play the 4v cars like he always does to put it on a pedistal.
Lol ive known **** like this since HS, when i was fooling with hondas.

Yeah i agree, around that area. 5400-5500. i was just going by the motortrend info. Which sparked automach's butthurt.

 

I remember that test, I have that mag somewhere. That car did not have any of the SLP performance parts on that were optional either. Woulda been even worse if it did.

 

LMAO at this thread. How do you fellas earn a living arguing over the internet all day?!

 

Actually that test car came optioned with the SLP Muffler/Center Mount Exhaust, which isn't worth much more than the stock muffler.
