Well I guess I know now for sure I dont have anything for a 2004 Mustang Cobra. After we ran I pulled up beside him to admit defeat. He said his modifications he netted him 515 rwhp a far cry from the stock 385. What do they do to those things. Before the run I was following him and he punched it in 2nd leaving 2 wide and long black marks. That should have been enough warning. I guess if I am gonna play on the streets I need a higher lift lower duration cam. I need to keep my original goal in mind. YEAH RIGHT

Man I can see it full scale. That looks like alot of great work. Congrats!! Please post progress. Maybe you can put a red 2+2 body on it!!!!!

I hear it is a little loose in the corners. I am sure as soon as he gets his corner weights set and his ride height level it will be a track monster!!!!

Congrats. Search the Forum for glowing red headers. Always great to hear of a new addition.

Mikelly Can you post the link to the story on the 168 mph run. Sounds interesting.

Very Tastey. That looks like a LARGE TURBO

Think this would work on a t5? http://cgi.ebay.com/93-02-CHEVY-CAMARO-FIREBIRD-T56-RACING-SHORT-SHIFTER-98_W0QQitemZ270109293147QQihZ017QQcategoryZ33736QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

LESD Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Now my z is no thing of beauty by any means. My goal was to build as quick and as fast a car as I could that was street legal and could be used for track events but not wreck the family budget. After 2years I am getting close to my goal. To date I have approximately $5k -$6k in it and would sell it for $5k. It has been drivable for about a year. Building the car and changing the car is the most satisfying. Driving the car is thesecond most satisfying. But what really kicks is when a friend who owns a 2004 Z06 wants to drive your car and when he is done hops out and tells you it is a beast. He and I lined up 0-60 and we ran even. His car the Z06 is a great car well engineered gran tourismo. I have raced gt2 scca and su in NASA. Even brought home one trophy. Both of my zcars have proven they can beat up on the best of them at a fraction of the cost. That is the kick!!!!!

Looking for the best deal on a shifter for a GM t5 1992 Also on ebay I noticed PRO 5.0 is selling a shifter that fits both t5 and t56. Does one shifter fit all? Can a gm t56 shifter fit a gm t5 shifter? I might find a deal on a stock t56 shifter that someone has upgraded.

So I just received a WC T5 from Luigi. Thanks Man!!. I tore into it and the gear look very good. I need to order a rebuild kit. I have a couple questions. 1. Where to order the rebuild kit from 2. Has anyone removed the cluster shaft? In the manual this is the lowest shaft in the casing and the manual says" If you are going to replace the rear cluster bearing you can clip the outer bearing retainer. I did this. The ouer racees are seperate pieces but is he inner race integrel to the shaaft or should I be able to get the inner race off the shaft? Thanks Joe

This video is awesome. Must have!!!!!!!!!!!!! Livin the dream!!!! 1 QUICK Z VS WHITEBOY

Hey Jt1 and Luigi What is Maxton monster mile?

Pulled hard to 7000 rpm shift light there.

Oh I have got to hear the whole story. Take your time. Type it offline. Do whatever you have to do. Please include car specs and both driver and passenger thoughts. This is going to be good. 160 mph past a State Cop. Oh Yeah the legend is born

Shut it down at WOT and checked plugs. Dry Sooty Black.

BG Forgive my ignorance. What doesnt make sense about the cam/ intake runner combination. Explain it. Road Course. I did not have afr's measured. I sure tham not going about this correctly. But there has been no clear path.

As far as valve timing when I assembled I lined the timing marks up bottom and top not advancing the cam at all. How does one check the strength or weakness of an ignition coil? BG when you say heads are too big and cam less than optional I am not sure what you mean. This application is an 80% closed circuit car and 20% goof off on the street. It is is no way meant to be a street car/daily driver. I have a 5 speed tranny on the way and need power at the top end. My initial goal was to give up some on the low end, as this is a fairly light car, in order to gain on the top end Down the front straight. I understand the carb is big/too many cfm for a 355 mathematically speaking. However this carb came to me for $300 and I could not pass it up as every built holley I looked at was $550 - $800. So here I am. Now where to go from here. I probably wont go too deep into the motor until this winter. Ignition and valve timing. HMMM. BG where can I buy jets? Do Holley jets fit and where can I find info on how to change them and tuning? The manual that came with the carb does not have very much information and if there is info on the BG website it is buried some where cause I have tried to find it. I am not familiar with holley's or BG style carbs. Have workedon weber side drafts and edelbrocks. Just need a good manual.

Good Job now work on it a little each day. Pics Please. and progress reports

Whoah Savage 180mph 3.53 4speed that is phenominal. Was 4th 1:1 What was the od or size of the tire. What kind of rpms. Just curios as I am running a muncie 4 speed trying to figure out how to get faster.

Yeah it is trying to find the magical combination to get it up there.

Mine always runs 200- 210 which is fine.

I was in the same situation. I sold my stock head that I had put some money into and bought a set of slightly used World Product Sportsman 2s. What a difference. I sold my stockers for $275 and paid $475 for the Sportsmans
