Lmao, how do you come to that conclusion? You and I have never raced, so you can't say mine lays down on the top end like yours does.
He's never done a back half so there is no data to support your theory of 3 seconds for his back half.

Blows my mind that some think the cobra should be labeled h/c/I/e. LOL
The easiest way to think of my cobra is it's a Mach 1 with full bolt on's, ported intake, degreed 96-98 cams, and 4.56 gears. And of course weight reduction.
I could call my weight reduction factory also since it all was factory done to the 2000 Cobra R..... LMAO
The car is still a IRS car and will always be. I could drop another 145lbs with swapping to a solid axle. But I'll never do that. I like the thought of just swapping wheels and changing strut and shocks settings. Then hit a autocross if I wanted to.

You don't surf this retarded forum, so you don't know me, but I am the farthest thing from a GM nuthugger, or a ford one for that matter. I've had pretty much every sports car out there and I call em like I see em.
You're not the one that's lying and started this mess, It's Stock was trolling the likes of Hammer, Hio, and Dr.lsx. Anyone with a brain knows that hio and hammer like to stretch the truth about what they're done to their cars, and it's stock was giving them a taste of their own medicine.
It's stock was trying to pass this off as as a barely modded cobra walking on a cammed 6.0L, which I called as bullshit. He claimed that he wasn't lying about your mods, when he clearly was.
Since there are no aftermarket heads available, I would say switching to the best factory head available counts as a head swap. (Yes, I know there are better factory heads out there, but they are rarer than hell).
The cams are a little different story since aftermarkets are available, but a degreed 96 Cobra intake cam is worth 30RWP and that's nothing to sneeze at.
He was trying to pass off your weight as 3300lbs, and ignored me when I asked if that was with or without the driver.
If I had to take a wild guess at your power levels, I would say you're lurking somewhere around 340-350RWP, which explains why you walked all over that trans am. I absolutely love your setup BTW, I have similar plans for my 97 Thunderbird. Nice to see a modular that can run hard NA.
