    97gt can't spin tires?

    I wouldn't worry about it too much, I rented a new (1200miles on the dial) 2003 GT Vert with an auto last summer & with the traction control off it would not burn the tires up from a stop. I had to Break Torque it to get any significiant rubber burning action.

    can i put a 255+ tire on an 8" rim?

    You shouldn't have a problem with 255's. 275's would probably be as big as you can go...but I would check with a tire dealer first. BTW 255's are only 10mm larger (this much bigger ---> ___ ) than 245's, so if your looking for an appearance adjustment....then you should go larger or you...

    01 cobra vs. 94 corvette

    Your average Cobra is going to run right around that area, Give or take a few. But a 99+ Cobra Will have a better top end charge then a LT1 Vette.

    2001 GT vs. 2001 Cobra...

    Okay...maybe 99+ Cobra aren't a .6 - .8 seconds faster. But they are easily a 1/2 second & 3 - 4 mph faster with the same driver (skilled), same track, same day. As Far a SOTP goes the GT loses in every aspect except the 0 - 60mph sprint. Cobra's aren't really weak on the bottom end compared...

    Some real competition for the Cobra

    Take a guess at how much a GTO would cost with an LT5..... $45 - 55,000 or more. So yeah it COULD have one but no one would buy it.

    Some real competition for the Cobra

    Umm...GM didn't have much to do the the design or the manufacturing of the ZR1's DOHC motor....as it was all out sourced.:notnice:

    '97 Mustang Cobra or '97 Mustang GT

    Forget Peer Pressure! Whatever you do don't throw a short shift, gears & exhaust on the thing. After that the Cobra begs you enough on it's own to break traffic laws :D Remember, hammering gears with a short shifter is allot like Hammering your GF from behind...its hard to resist the...

    Some real competition for the Cobra

    Very nice engine....but I really like how GM has used fake valve covers to try to make it look like it has DOHC.:rlaugh:

    Can a Trans Am be that fast stock?

    Its not stock....with mods you have....you should pull on a Stock LS1 with relative ease.

    SVT vs Cobra? Any Difference? & Horsepower inquiry..

    Big difference. A 1991 Cobra is a Canadian trim level car which offers no performance upgrades over a 91 GT. A 1993 SVT Cobra (first year for SVT) has GT-40 Heads, Cobra Intake, 4 wheel disk brakes. Stock 1993 Cobra's are also worth allot more than a regular fox body GT's as there weren't...

    Why is my car so slow?!!

    Well 15.8 is slow but it really depends on the track your running at....Stock 99+ GT are supose to be in the 13.9 - 14.3 range. Up here in Calgary....most stock GT's run around 14.9 - 15.2 @ 92mph.

    Pics of the 4.6L 3 valve....

    Looks like a 4.6 DOHC had sex with an LS1 & this is the offspring. BTW: the LS1 is the catcher in this relationship :nice:

    INteresting dyno proof about how 03 Cobras respond to mods-

    I think some of the increases your seeing after each run is the stock computer "learning" that it has more flow on the exhaust side. :shrug:

    1996 cobra installing a 5.8

    Better, but in reality the Lightning motor still gives up 100hp to the LS1.

    1996 cobra installing a 5.8

    Well if your deciding between a 5.8L out a Pick-up or an LS1...I would do the LS1. Seriously what use would a 5.8L outta a pick-up be to you? Heads, Cam intake all useless...unless of course you want 210hp.. :shrug: Not to mention that a 1995 motor is getting old, if you plan on going with...
