Ms4 cam only 6.0l Z28 VS Pullied '03 Cobra

lemons12 · 10-30-2009, 11:38 PM

Camaro- 6.0l., Ms4 cam, Vengance ported 90/90, 3.73s, Yank 3600 converter, hand ported 317 heads (doesn't make a difference I don't believe, he considers them ported), Dyno tune, 3700 race weight
395/380 (Dyno is notorious for numbers 25Rwhp or so less than others)

'03 Cobra- Full exhaust, Water cooled, Pulley (makes 15 #s), CAI, Dyno tune, 3750 race weight
475/500ish IIRC, he just got it done and running...

Cobra has pretty bad traction issues and the roads were damp some, so instead of being in 2nd gear (40 roll) he just went ahead and started in 3rd..
Started at 40mph and we let off around 90mph, right about the time the Z28 started flashing the lights.

If that was a 5.0 as the camera car and a pewter T/A as the headlights I'd swear that was you and me racing!

so who won?...is it just me or does that look like the camaro going backwards really fast? and was that a train with a camera in it?

Not too many GM swingers coming in here running their mouth on this one.

BTW, this is my buddies (Ls1z28-00) Cobra that was going to run Ls1pussout if he ever came down.

You got the right idea!

I like the way this train looks compared to most I have seen.

Any of the previously mentioned situations will work, take your pick!

You did see that the camera car was a Mustang right? There is your explanation.

We still going to the track the 4th?

So finally a Cobra without inflated numbers here...That was ugly, good try OP. A MS4 6.0l is no slouch, seriously. Did you let off in the last half or no? Because he was putting too much buses to my taste.

Me and you both.. Me and TJ (Cobra owner) were cracking up about that tonight... We would LOVE for him to come down here.
We tried to get more runs tonight but nobody wanted to play really..

A buddy in a 98 Z28 T56 short throw and 410s raced a 2000ish GT with full exhaust 410s CAI shifter... Buddy gave the GT the hit and didnt kick it till way after the GT did.. He ended up putting about 1 1/2 on him and was pulling pretty good.. 40mph or so roll also..

My car was not the car in the vid.. And yes, it was very ugly.. Especially for the Cobra starting in 3rd gear @ 40mph and not even shifting to 4th..

lemons12 · 10-31-2009, 12:52 AM

Me and the Cobra did run tonight, kind of.. Was a shitty run.. Lined up somewhat from 40mph-80mph.. He pulled about 1 1/2 on me.

We are going to try it again with me having a 75 shot and a 150 shot.. And next weekend are going to run with me on motor from a dig at the track.

Again, not me in the camaro.. My race was MUCH closer than that and the Cobra was in the correct gear.

He was in it until right before he flashed his lights.

lemons12 · 10-31-2009, 12:56 AM

I was the person taking the vid inside of the Cobra.

Johnnystock · 10-31-2009, 01:38 AM

Wow, I should leave the beer in the case before making post like that!! I didnt even notice it was a Camaro and you have a T/A LOL..its friday night, gotta drink a bit!!

It is fine.. I figured someone wold assume that, should have made it more clear in the OP.. Especially on a Friday!

Johnnystock · 10-31-2009, 01:44 AM

So this Camaro is kinda weak or what?

It is not as fast as a typical Ms4 car.. The converter is supposed to be a 3600 but flashed more to a 2800-3000.. Doesn't matter a WHOLE lot from that MPH but still makes a bit of a difference.
I wouldn't say its a dog, and I wouldn't say it is average.... My old Ms4 car would have walked away from it when it was cam only.

yea it just felt better to call it a train for some reason

We are still going, atleast I am, I'll have 2 cars there(the red 98 and the black 94 swap car).

as for this race...I would say he missed a gear but its an automatic?!...still scratching my head on this one
