66 AC Cobra I don't think I will have anything for you LOL. I will get some pics of my 69. I changed computers and I have to transfer them. As far as you stroker guy's go talk is cheap. And as soon as all you guy's get your cars running I am staying home . Season'd 88 wanted smack talking LOL I don't actualy think I will be able to beat to many of the hard running strokers. That is unless I show up with one of my own with the Vortech hmmm(won't be for a while but it will happen)

$115 in parts, add 15 hours of cutting and welding only because it was the first time i have done it, and BAM, u will no longer have traction issuez

can someone say 1.2* 60' if i am man enough to launch on the brake, on the W tire, at 5000rpm, and on the juice

the car will have the capabilities but will I

If you don't we will put somebody in there who does LOL.So with that 60 foot you are shooting for low 9's or better ? As for Drag Slics(seasoned88) my car is a street car I don't run no stinking drag slics.

once my car is up and running, all the bugs are sorted out and i can get some good times in it, i will have someone else drive it to see how much i can improve with some more practice

shooting for 9.50's
big in windsor dart based
afr 205's, solid street roller, vic jr., built carb shop carb, nx gemini quad plate, two stages to total about 250-300, c4 built, blah blah

should be over 800+ flywheel hp on the juice and race gas ofcourse

with very good suspension and a tire that can hold it to the ground
 

---

Posted by 66 AC COBRA (Member # 904) on :
 
realistically the car will never dip below a 1.35 60' just because I dont have the balls to launch on both stages, or even one forthat matter

do u have the valve cover breathers routed to the header collector for vacuum, or do the rubber tubes go somewhere else

have u ever out a gauge on the evac system to see what kind of vacuum u get

and i see a nitrous plate under there, was the 10.30 on motor or nitrous

Posted by 2stangs69-91 (Member # 1951) on :
 
Thanks Brian. The 10.30 is on the NOS. It was 11.2 on the motor. It is a 10.2 to 1 428. I used to run a 427 FE that was a little quicker but I killed that also. If I was smart I would do a 460 based engine like Victor keeps telling me. The old slot mags are nostalga LOL but they are going to be off in favor of Pro Stars. Yes the header evac system goes to the collectors. I have never had a vacuum gauge on it to see what it pulls when I Race it.

Posted by Bounty Hunter (Member # 1422) on :
 
We will definatly be there unless it rains, or we break something on the dyno on the 7th! We have a awsome guy coming out to tune the car so hopefully we will be running some good times!

u might have twice the valves, u also have twice the wiring

Posted by the50ho (Member # 73) on :
 
yeah, and twice the cost for building anything serious like I want to.

I've been looking into getting another 5 liter to build up so I can do some serious racing.

anyone want a s/c'd 98 cobra?

dont give me that teice the $$$ bullshit stuff

u dont need to buy an intake, heads, a block, a crank, etc

i have to buy a dart block $2000
heads, same price if u do some seriously extensive porting

my crank will be 800

but shit, i will never trade it for the sound of a 408 with a big solid roller that will make peak power around 7k rpms

u can just throw a charger on ur stock motor and make 450rwhp with bolt ons/fullexhaust on some decent boost basard
 

---

Posted by the50ho (Member # 73) on :
 
true...and then my SHIT ASS GARBAGE rods can literally explode under boost...and then my basically stock rebuild making NO power, and a measly 281 ci will cost me about 5 grand.

If only I was fully forged and had 331 cubes with the technology my car has....oh jesus...9's here we come

actually will peak around 6900, with the new motor I will be shifting around 7000rpm, and want to go through the traps at about 7000rpm on the tack

u can work it out if u want, this will give u actually results
6300rpm figuring 10% torque convert slip
27.5" tire "tires arent a tall as advertised"
3.55 gear
1.00 c4 final gear

thats a lot of nitrous

will ne running a 28x11.5r15, but it wont measure that, if i run out of gear on the second stage i might switch to a 29x10.5w

It will be interesting to see what my car does since it is basically your motor but a lil smaller and a lil less go juice I wonder what the difference will be at the end of the track with my tremec vs the C4? Cant wait to find out!!!!
