for anyone too lazy to click:
GT-40 iron heads, stock 302 shortblock from a fox, stock HO cam, 1.7 roller rockers
Cobra Intake, 24# Injectors
Hedman 1-5/8" Shorties, Bassani X-Pipe, Dynomax SuperTurbo Catback
March and ASP Pullies
Densecharger, 70mm Cobra Mass Air, 65 mm TB
Melling Oil Pump
MPG Head Service Windage Tray
============================
275 rwhp, 319 rwtq. Sounds pretty good. Just sharing what seems to me like pretty good results for a cobra intake, stock cam, and stock GT-40 heads.
compared to a stock '93-'95 cobra this combo would have more lift, (due to 1.7 rockers on the HO cam) yet a little less duration.

I really hope that he didn't dyno with the electric H20 pump and a bypassed PS pump. Those mods are 10-15 HP extra easy. (he lists them as "track only" mods)

I believe it was with the electric pump and no PS pump. I've seen a stock '93 cobra with 3 chamber flowmasters, no air silencer and K&N make low 240 rwhp, so the numbers add up. I don't know why his car is so heavy though.... 3450 going down the track? My full weight AOD car weighed that.
