Cam Only C5z vs Whipple Cobra
 

thats a poor running cobra

I think its right on par! My car traps 126 on motor! 580 cobra trap anywhere from 126-131depending on weather!

You didn't even need nitrous to take him. lol great kill

Nice runs. You just edged him out on the bottle lol

how are you trapping 126 with 420 wheel? Did you do some weight reduction?

Edge him out on the bottle lol the second pull was motor!

Low reading dyno! Ive seen intake and full exhaust zs trap 120 its not unheard of

Seems very odd that a 580 rwhp car can't beat a 420 rwhp car...even with the weight difference

Thats was nasty with spray. Like to see you run the 5.0 again with the spray.

Is what is. I just put 2.5-3 on a 670whp 5.0.

Its in the works on setting that up again!

Good runs.... i love weight reduction!!

Atco then?

I mean...stock C6Z's trap low 120's and they make 440ish with a better curve. Whatever you're doing is working that's for sure...if its really a cam only stock weight car its one of the fastest I've heard of.

Oh i'm not doubting you at all! You obviously know how to drive, and have a great running car! Nice job

That doesn't seem right considering my 460whp cobra trapped 122-123, I'd be pissed if I whippled my car and didnt consistently trap over 130. Your car deff moves out for what it is for damn sure tho. :guns:

Convertible is a good bit heavier... and we dont know its build. Could be heavier then stock. My buddies vert 03 whipple car was 3850 before he even got in it.

Vettes are slow...

Thats because vettes are too heavy...

Full weight! Im 200lbs my passenger was 250! Kid in the cobra might of been a buck 20 lol plus his girlfriend which was small! My car is full weight!
Good ole london kentucky! Not atco! We had a intake and longtune c6z go 10.66@133

Thanks sir

No 2 cars perform the same!

Agreed!

I wasnt saying your car had weight reduction... I was just saying i love it and this is why i spend thousands to get my car lighter lol. Other people just like to add HP. Im all about the weight. Hell my GTO was 3300lbs lol

I owned a full weight gto and it was slow it was heads/cam too. Im sure at 3300 lbs yours flew

good point, i forgot how heavy a stock irs vert cobra would be.

Car was a coupe!

really? man that's even worse for him then. I saw the car in the picture of your car at the gas station and just assumed it was the car you were racing lol

Sonic blue and white lol how do you mistake that I know its dark but you would know a white car from a dark one even at night

Lmao i love the reactions that OP's vids get on here, its priceless.

I actually paid zero attention i have no excuse for that lol.

Good kill. Just shows that there are good running card and not so good running cars. Keep up the good work!

That's one helluva cam to trap 126 N/A.

Another great kill mr lsx , keep up the good work

its always funny to see so many 'he cud have' it shud have' comments. video doesnt lie.

Car works man!
Be more coming give me a week or 2 lol
Agreed sir!

Not really. ..... no cam needed for that.

Good kill!

You should make a list of stock weight stock engine c5z's that trap 126. He'll even cam only ones. Should be a giant list, need moar bandwidth.

Not my problem what others can out can't do. ....... I'm telling you what can be done. Solid full bolt on cammed ones should go well over 130. If my bolt on ls6 camaro can go over 130 No reason a ls6 vette shouldn't at least get close

It's comical sometimes. Not saying it can't be done but not everyone has a $3,000 super light weight clutch with a face plated transmission and a race weight 500lbs lighter than stock. That stuff is probably worth a couple mph don't ya think?

His car def runs good for cam and bolt-ons, but bolt-on only c5 z06's have went 126 in the 1/4 mile. Some cars just run really good. Also did we see how big of a cam it is? I hope to trap around 122 cam only...

Mine runs consistently at 128 mph, it has hit 129 once or twice :bang:

Custom spec cam 231/236 .608 .617

Exaggerate much?

The clutch is no where near that. No more than some spend a any other aftermarket clutch. 500lb lighter.....I wish......faceplated t56.....dunno what it's worth. Depends on how you use it. In the end a c5Z06 is the better car and has more potential.

I'm really not trying to be a dick here. Just trying to point out facts. But you can't argue your clutch/face plated trans arent worth a notable amount. Its like wondering why every bolt on car doesn't run 10.8-11.0 like they do in Factory stock class that make 380whp. Weight is a big part of it as well as drivetrain like a light weight clutch and faceplated trans.

There are lots of things that can affect performance. Your over looking the fact that the z06 chassis is that much better. Just being able to launch the damn thing instead of pussy footing out of the hole like I do would be worth time/mph.

IDK how much either is worth on a back to back test. If you use the clutch then the fp'd t56 is worth nothing....if you don't then I'm sure it's worth a little something. But not what it could be with a ignition cut. The clutch I don't see being worth any more than .2.....at the most. My weight is similar to a stock z06. Those would be the facts as close as I can guess. But w/o doin back to back tests we will never know.

your car moved OUT! nice vid!

always nice to see some GM pulling Ford (not trying to start a thread war, i just like GM better and obviously since im on this site i root for GM)
