Single digit DD (stock longblock, KB2.8H)
 
Sorry its a Mustang:eek:

I wanted to share some of my exitement with the F body crowd.
I ran my 96 Cobra at Need2speeds Dead Hookers7 event at Bradenton Motorsports Park tonight. I was not expecting any stellar times due to the heat.

Boy was I supprised!

For those wondering, it is a Terminator swapped car. It has a stock longblock (with 05 revised Aviator heads), stock Cams, a T56, solid w/3.55 gears and minimal suspension mods (it needs some work).
I am not positive about the weight but I think that it is about 3350-3400 without me in it. Maybe a little less at the track though (I pulled the rear and passenger seat).

I am running a 3.25 upper with a 4lb lower, making 25psi on 110 gas.

For those that say you need cams and a stroker to take advantage of a KB2.8, I think that you are mistaken. BTW a little while back I ran a 10.59 @ 134 on 18lbs and 93 gas.

Here are the slips in order of my runs:
60......1.549..........1.469........1.438
330....4.380..........4.269.........4.201
1/8.....6.635..........6.511.........6.435
MPH....106.54.......110.09.......110.44
1000...8.572.........8.423.........8.342
1/4.....10.196........10.018......9.933
MPH....138.84.......141.68........142.02

The first run had about a 45min cooldown from the drive on the highway. After that they had about an hour and a half cool down time. The only differences betwwen the runs was launch rpm: 1st 5000, 2nd 5500, 3rd 6000

Big thanks to the guys at Race Related for hooking me up with a killer race tune and a very very smooth street tune.

BTW I put about 130 miles on the car round trip from my house to the track (including the 3 runs).
I drove it on street tires, bolted up the slicks at the track, than drove it back home on street tires.

I will probably wait until it cools again before I take it back. With a few suspension upgrades and better weather I am hoping for a 9.7


Once the vids for the event are posted up, I will post them here

damn....... awesome times man. how many MPG's do you pull on the street?lol. congrats man, that's some feat.

Thanks.

Driving the car without getting on it much, it gets about the same gas milage as a stock 03 Cobra, which is about 16 around town and 19-20 on the highway. If I do get on it, all bets are off:rolleyes:

The car sounds like a stocker at idle with stock cams and 2 1/2" flowmaster cat back. I have taken many people by supprise with it.

Here a a couple pics that were taken at the event. I'm still waiting on the vids.

Very impresive, I didn't realize you were putting that motor into your Cobra. You and Steph have a great group of cars.

Thanks Chad,
Stephs swap is finnaly in progress. Advanced induction is working on our heads and cam package, I am rebuilding the lower end, and the sixxer is about to get the heave, ho!

This car was put together with leftover parts fom the 03 Cobra build up. It ran A LOT faster than I thought it would with the stock Eaton blower (10.89). So I put the 03 on hold and have been devoting my time to the 96. Now the 96 is as fast as my goal was for the 03. I can either try and make the 03 run 8s or put it back together mostly stock (atleast what I consider stock, lol):confused:.
Im probably going to put a stock longblock back in it with a Pro Charger D1SC instead of the F1R that I was going to run. On low boost and a mild tune it should make 550 to the wheels and put it in the low 11s at full weight.
