What would happen (95 Cobra/02 WS6) Both these cars are stock. The Cobra has 43k miles and is the 5.0 (302) Cobra, not the 4v 4.6 that came out in '96. The LS1 is a 02 WS6 with 7k miles on it. Who would win from a dig and a roll and by how much with equal drivers? Thanks

The cobra is going to get its head chopped off, then after that its going to spit down its throat by 5-6 car lengths.....hows that for a visual? i own a 94 cobra with mods and i cant bang with ls1s, let alone my car stock (94-95 same engine.car)

Sounds like you got your answer.
Any more questions?

Cobras outside of the 03-04 ones arent much to really look at if your not putting a blower on them, beacuse that small 8 REALLY needs that blower, and the 5.0 ones just werent really fast to begin with.

THey have upgraded heads and intakes, that is how they are not slower than a normal 5.0 more about = to one, maybe a tad faster. THe LS1 is going to PUMMEL RAPE!!!! that cobra though, Hell, tell the LS1 owner to shift at 4500rpm and i bet he still murders the car, lmao

i had an 89 5.0 and used to beat the 5.0 sn95 cars by 2 to 3 cars by the time the speedo was on the peg (85mph).it would stay with a stock lt1 but a ls1 6 speed would disappear from me.it had exhaust intake and 200k miles and still ran like 45k miles.now i got a ws6 ls1 weee.

Well, I know that the GT-40 heads/intake on the 95 cobra would help it, but 300+ pounds IS alot ot overcome. Besides, a fox body could just put those on their 5.0 lol. Ive been contemplating getting a cheap 5.0 to beat on.
