Go shorter, say 4.30s :beer:kissmyAZZure said:Nice run!! What mods are you running. I'll be installing my rear, gears (4.10) and dr's shortly. I hope to be down in your range!!

Beetle6986 said:Your logic makes no sense especially for a Mach owner.
Beetle6986 said:Tell me, why did you buy a Mach instead of a GT or a 6 cyclinder? Based on your quote above, I don't think you can answer that.
Beetle6986 said:Bottom line = the stock Cobra has a lot more power and takes a stock Mach 1 without a problem (around a second difference in the 1/4? with the Mach having a better rear for launching). The same goes for the Mach1 vs a GT and a GT vs a V6. Sure, there are GTs and Mach1s out there that will beat a Cobra. If the Cobra has the same mods, its easily on top again. As you know horsepower gains from mods are on a % basis. A cobra will usually get more horses than a Mach1 for the same mods.
Beetle6986 said:I do agree that the video doesnt represent the difference between a stock Mach and stock Cobra.

wurd2 said:Keep in mind that the Cobra is generally 10k more expensive.the Mach1's were roughly 30k and the Cobra's were roughly 40k, which entitles me to make my above statement. Like it or not, this is what I observed.
I never said a cobra is better than a Mach I. Everyone has their own opinion and its all in what you like. Ego has nothing to do with it.wurd2 said:you simply do not like them because they infer that a Mach1 is better than a Cobra, but that's not what I'm trying to say.
What I was driving at is why did you buy a GT and modify it to be faster than a Mach instead of paying the extra money to buy a Mach.wurd2 said:But what you're driving at here is that money was a factor in my decision, and that is correct.
Which one will handle more?wurd2 said:I think you are overlooking something here. Which engine is going to respond more to boost, a Mach1 engine with 10.1:1 compression, or a Cobra engine with 8.5:1 compression?
Beetle6986 said:I went to 3 different dealers. The sticker on a on a Cobra coupe was around 36 and a Mach 1 was around 29-30 at all of them. The dealers around you must have really messed with the prices.
