Cobra was quick. Good to see a 5th Gen putting in work for once though, pretty rare.

I expected more from the 5.0 to be honest.

excellent runs. about what I expected. I have not been impressed with 5.0's and P1's as far as numbers go. All 3 cars sounded great tho.

The Camaro and the 5.0 both said they dyno'd at around 580. Not sure on the Cobra.

5th gen is a god damned turd. Heads/cam/2300 should be well over 700whp, and he barely pulled an eaton cobra? pathetic. That's $10k worth of mods, if your labor was free

Exactly!! 5.0 was weak as **** as well but then again it was only running 5lbs. Whats up with that. Id say the the Cobra was the most impressive of them all. I was really expecting it to get raped...

Like others said:
Ported Cobra - running exactly like it should and giving it all it has.
5th Gen - running slow for its mods, but at least it did win. 580rwhp is only 100 over what a heads/cam average SS is running. What's he on, 5psi?
5.0 - needs to man up and bring that boost to 7-8psi at least. 5psi is trailer queen show car psi.

I have a buddy that had a H/C/2.3 Maggie. Car made right at 700whp. Manual at that. And that was safe tune. Me and him was great run on street when I was 650whp. Track I killed him. This 5th grandsport should crushed those cars easily.

The 5.0 only on 5lbs is weak. I haven't seen any procharged 5.0's actually do work yet unless on F1 blowers.
