Beat a 99ish Cobra in my LT1
#141
i sure wish they would both do it because right now its impossible to say which ones better...i think they both need to build a same design SB same cubes and compression and put them on a dyno, and then say were better than u, until then this will be an endless debate...

actually CI for CI ford doesnt win. do u know what would happen if chevy did a similar motor the the....LT5. im sure all u guys rememer that one, and thats now 15 year old technology and it was like 405hp N/A, and with todays technology prolly more like 450+, ford could never do that...

Yeah, ZR1s are probably my favorite modern-era Vette (I'm a sucker for C4s, what can I say). BUT, it is a stretch at best to give even minimal credit to Chevrolet for it. The motor was engineered by Lotus, and manufactured/assembled by Mercury Marine. They sent the project to Lotus with the intention of it being pushrod actually, and Lotus made the decision to go DOHC. Which means they engineered the heads, cams, valvetrain, etc. for the whole motor. Awesome car though

yeah, and ford guys like cobras. so why buy a gt for what you could have a termi for ? ? ? 19k will get you one that runs decent with some mileage on it.22k should get you one with reasonable mileage on it. its you guys that are on here ALL the time talking 04 cobra this and 04 cobra that.so if all you stang guys love them so much why did any of you buy a 05-up gt ? ? ? i also think its funny how you had nothing to say when i made a response to your "mod for mod" argument but you jumped on this like a lab screwing a poodle. you take your bull**** somewhere else!

some of the ford people can be so ignorant a lot of them are here trying to start a fight. putting up with ignorant comments is part of life. UNIT has to put up with a lot and he drives a cobra. YOU FORD OWNERS SHOULD LEARN FROM UNIT! you dont see him going off. please show respect!

Hummmmm.... 4.6 GT's and Stock Lt1's. First your talking about a motor that was put in the 93 camaro's and trans am's. Your comparing them with 99 cobras and newer model mach1's. Compare some new performance cars or something. One of you were nagging about a GT500 and a Terminator walking all over a stock LT1! I would hope that they would be able to out run a stock LT1. If you want to be realistic compare the terminator to the 03-04 Z06, the car it was built to outrun but couldnt, not Z28's and Trans AM's from 2002. And as far as the new GT500 high 12's are not impressive for a car that makes 450 at the wheels. Hell the terminators are said to be slightly faster in the 1/4. I dont like the fact that chevrolet supercharged the new ZR1 but the Z06 is still the N/A king!
