Default Mach 1 vs Boosted 408 T/A

I ran a guy with a turbocharged 408 trans am at the end of the race season, he was on 7 psi I think he said. He also has a stalled th400. My car is a stock cobra longblock, VMP blower, and 4r70w trans. Sorry for the crappy quality.

And correct me if I'm wrong I'm not up to date on my bro.... But didn't the mach and the Cobra have the same engine aside from forged internals in the Cobra ? So wouldn't that make yours a forged bottom end blown mach1 ?

Nice run. Do you think he would have pulled up top if you ran it to the 1/4? How close was it?

It was pretty close, I only had him by a couple tenths. Yeah he definitely would have, he ran around 106mph in the 1/8 and I was only 103ish.
