N/A 96 cobra update..

[Bite u]

We'll finally got it back to the track after the ported short runner and retune.. Got a little bit better time, but shoulda and coulda been alot better.. Mind u this is practically a full bolt on car, close to full weight (still had power seats, all interior, a/c, power steering, ect) need to weigh the car.

So anyways, a new best on over .12 worse 60'

BEFORE MANIFOLD, with 4.56's and 28x11.5x15

And did a couple of spray passes (75 wheel shot) gained 85 or so hp and 140 tq

Over all I'm somewhat satisfied, car needs some help in the 60' department, badly! I figured it woulda done 110-111 on motor though considering a couple roll race run ins with a new 5.0 and c6 vette. But all in due time! Gives me something to work with.

Not to mention she drove there and back! :rockon:

Is this with the 28's still?

 

[2 cam sam]

Yeah you need to get that 60 down. I've hit 1.55 60's with my bolt on 4v.

 

[Bite u]

Yeah 28's r still on the car, for now... Will b swapping soon when I get super serious.. I dunno what the deal was last night, but didn seem like anyone was 60'n worth a damn. Possibly too cold? 35-40*

Got a feeling them h n r (red) race springs and koni adjustables (yellow) r hurting me. Not getting really any transfer

Once you put the 26's on your mph will increase. It'll probably trap around 112 (taking each gear to 7k).

Is the sway bar connected? I forgot what you said when I asked before.

But yes thats the downside in running in cold weather...track is too cold. I've always run my best time when its between 55-60*. Good air for making power and the track still has heat in it.

I'd b happy with a 111-112 trap with an almost full weigh car.

Front sway is disconnected though, prostar big and n little setup, aluminum DS, most of the trunk gutted, still has all factory crap up front, including smog egr, stock k, just alot of dead weight. Upr k setup with a arms and coilovers r next on the todo list! Thinking of going back with stock shocks and cut a coil or so, and maybe some Lakewoods or strange 10 ways

Not sure if this will work, trying to show a video

 

[clc44]

Congrats man! Sounds like fun...

 

[na svt]

Losing some weight off the front and losing the 28s will help a lot.

 

[clc44]

Agreed, but I'm sure he knows that. Mid 12's from that set up is pretty strong though.

My car is an 04 GT 5spd convertible with 04 Mach 1 bolt on motor which is full exhaust, intake, pulleys, 4.30's, and a tune. Staggered bullitts with 315's rear and full weight except for front sway bar removed and it ran 1.87 60ft, 8.17 @ 86mph, and 12.71 @ 108mph (highest trap 109mph) and it bogged when i shifted to 4th. Thats only leaving at 2000 because of traction. My suspension is H&R supersports (blue ones) and tokico hp shocks and struts so i think with your suspension you are fine. From watching the video it seemed you didnt leave hard at all which may be some of why the 60ft isnt lower. Car runs very good man. I cant wait to do these cams installed and get a ported intake (not ported short runner) from Todd. She should run very well

 

[Bite u]

Yeah my car has alot left in it, due to just 60' if I coulda pulled a 1.75 it woulda been 12.3-12.4 range... Really wanting to pull 1.6's or so on motor and maybe squeak into the 1.5's on the baby shot. I would b happy with a low 12 pass around 110-111. Swapping to the 26" slicks here soon

 

[NVRL8TE]

Very cool!

Losing some weight off the front and losing the 28s will help a lot.

agreed! definitely not bad passes though! keep us updated after you go back with your new suspension setup

 

[clc44]

Are you going tomorrow? Looks like temps will be cool but not cold. Could hook up better!

 

[2 cam sam]

Man I'm jealous of you guys with race tracks open . Our local track opens March 9th. I'm about to go stir CRAZY!:rolling:

 

[ModularSpeed]

Keep up the good work.

I sure do miss mine, I stepped up my game and it just isn't as fun as the mild modded N/A 4V stuff.

My car at a touch less than 3200#'s went the #'s in my sig, w/ 346rwhp, just so you know what to expect at a certain weight/power level.

It goes to show you B heads are not dead yet!

 

[clc44]

^ def not!!

They are dead, Kelly (modularspeed) had 03/04 heads.
