I think people are under estimating the weight difference between cars in this thread. 130-135 traps at a race weight above 3600lbs(if not more) takes a lot of jams :lol: ---

Yea, not producing, I was door to door with you not reving over 5500 rpms while blowing a charge pipe. You wanna talk about results. your 410 cubic inch motor only goes 11.4s. I built a fun street car, that when its fully workedout should be a 130 trap car. If i want to go faster i will open the bottle. So before you start shooting off your man pleaser know what the fuck your talking about. ---

Supercharging these is totally an option. The heads blow donkey balls though. And yes, 400whp will be stressing the whole driveline, but a cheaper termi is like $16 so… I would probably swap a 4v with a t56 and build the rear end but building the 2v is an option that can get 600whp with 93 octane. And when comparing a big cam stroked windsor to a blown mod motor car one should definitely consider streetability. Blown mod motors can drive like stock with a ton of power, whereas a cammed stroker doesn’t. So if you wanna spend more money and have something that doesn’t scream for attention it’s a good option. ---

Didn’t you just list like $10k+ worth of mods? Wouldn’t sell GT + 8k = Cobra Cobra + pulley = 500rwhpish Drives like stock spray 100shot ---

Wouldn’t a cheap 00 GT be like $3k? Sure _I’d_ go the cobra route but an 00 GT would make a good sleeper, and if it’s built you could do 600whp on pump, 900whp race gas. ---

Grow up people. Someone has an opinion and would build a car different. OMG OMG!!! lets fly off the handle and react like I rapped your sister and go into a keyboard swearing fit. Everyone would have built my car different, that’s so 2010. Yes my street motor goes much slower that all the solid roller, 225cc plus headed 7000+rpm other Ford smal blocks out there. It is so narrowed minded to simply judge a motor by it’s cubes lol. Back to this thread I agree with deathproof on the 4v route. ---

He didn’t say race car,he said race weight. Like the weight at which you race any car,like a street car. ---

I have a full interior with everything in my car except a/c, hardly stripped. Greg’s 03 cobra already has a tubular k-member and front suspension same as me. He has sold rear which saved weight from his IRS. His car is a lot lighter than a stock Cobra. You can FUCK OFF JUSTIN until you have correct information. ---

Sweet so his Cobra that weighs more then a SN95 is lighter then it was stock Just like your SN95 is lighter then stock :lol: So at the end of the day one started at 3700lbs and the other started at 3300lbs Edit: You’re also the one who POSTED about removing your back seats dumbass The 03 cobra also added a mild steel cage vs chrome moly and other shit. It’s not my fault you have some extremely flawed logic on trap speed ---

Yea I have a solid axle and a tubular front suspension, nut the last time I weighed it, I stripped it out with just a drivers seat and still with the irs and it was 3620 without me. The solid axle dropped probly 120# and +/-70 for the kmember the cage added atleast that much so my guess would be that it still weighs around 3600 ---
