ehh..

Bone stock auto with 4.10s, j mod, and like a 3500 stall would haul ass.

even just a stock auto with a 3500 stall would haul..

A properly setup auto own the 5 speed at the track.

10hp is not much over the auto. The auto runs consistent times while the 5-speed runs better, the same, or worse times than the auto but that's just the driver factor there.

Indeed it does. This is my 2000 GT 5-speed with the stock paper air filter (and everthing else stock, too) back in July of '03:

Those were some nice healthy numbers for your stock stang

I'm not saying the auto is faster or anything but when it comes to track times, the auto is more likely to be more consistent than the 5-speed. It also depends on the driver of the 5-speed too so don't think for a second that an auto is always faster. (Stock for Stock ET's)

Auto=low 14's

5-Speed=high 13's

Racing conditions will affect the times.

Well your 60ft times could be better, with the mods given now. I say low 14's or maybe high 13's if you can get some traction. Are you spinning a lot because of the gears?

98COBRA281 · Feb 23, 2008

yeah all the way thought 1st and 2nd i even had the tires at 25 psi

fobra559 · Feb 23, 2008

You should get LCA's then. Should help you plant those tires, it will cut your 60ft times and lead to better ET's.

Boy do I feel bad I just spoke to the last owner of my Cobra and he said my Cobra ran 13.4 best and 13.5 like clockwork. I never did beter than 14.001 Now I feel like I cant drive I wonder if my blown shocks and shot springs have something to do with the fact that I cant get it to hook till 70 mph

Wonder if I used enough smilies

fobra559 · Feb 23, 2008

Don't feel bad man You just need some new springs and shocks.
