Let the debate begin...lokkin to slap on upper/lower on my car. Car is completely stock other than c.a.i and soon full exhuast with 373s. Also plan on gettin som heads in the future...
Debating between trickflow track heat or the cobra upper lower..witch is better and wat power have u guys expieriencd with either or???? Main goal is to get this car in the mid to low 13s with the less bolt ons possible
once again car is a 87 5.0 stock speed density. Thanks for the info in advanced

my cobra intake has supported 450 hp at the wheels, granted I'm sure with the trick flow some more ponies would have been squeezed out.

I've made over 700RWHP with a properly setup Cobra intake, however a Holley systemax would have made even more.
