Yeah I must say this is the first Terminator Cobra i've ever encountered with weight reduction.
No track times for me yet, but I know Greddy has some. I'm not sure on the exact times for him, so i'll let him chime in here

Great runs guys! The cobras seem to be very similar to the gto's in the aspect that some seam to run great, and others with the exact same mods seam to be turds. I ran a pullied Bolton 03 and absolutely destroyed it when I was a h/c ls1. But I've Sean gto's get beat around here by cars they shouldn't have. Obviously driver has a massive amount to do with it. I have a race lined up with a KB 2.8 gt500 and a 2.8 kb 03 cobra here in a few weeks. Should be interesting!

So a 45 roll in 2nd is a sweet spot for the Cobra with stock 3.55's? What rpm is it at when it's at that speed? I'm thinking that might be a great rpm in 2nd for me as well with the 4.10's since my peak tq is at 5k

My best last year without nitrous was an 11.49@123. This spring I got my clutch too hot by slipping it too slow and it killed my times, best one with nitrous was a whopping 11.31@124.
I have no idea what rpm I'm at at 45. I've done 40-45's before and they're good tho.

According to the gear calculator i'd be at 4500 rpm at 45 mph in 2nd gear with my 4.10's. That would be a bit better for me than the 3800-4000 I was at during this last run. Ideally, 50 mph in 2nd might be best as it would put me around 4800, which would be very close to my peak torque at 5k. I think my ride would do much better at this rpm since the new combo seems to love the higher revs. We should try this next time Greddy Any idea where your rpm would be with the 3.73's?

are you over 500whp with a stock cubes ls2? I know the ls3 style heads are worth a good gain, but I see a lot of ls3 cars in at work with ported heads/cam/ported intake and I have yet to see one make over 480whp with a 6.2.

Yeah if it's a stock cube LS2 it can be done, but very rare (and impressive) or a very generous dyno. Case in point: My buddy just made 495 rwhp on his stock cubed LS2 Goat (6-speed and stock 3.42's) but with an absolute max effort build...ported FAST 102, huge cam, and some crazy *** $3000 plus Mast heads lol.
