What he said.

The only way to settle this is on the track. :D :D The loser puts his head down in shame, while the other one kicks him in the nuts. :D :D :D

speaking of trap speeds, how much horsepower does my car have if it ran a 13.2 at 105? This is what the previous owner told me he ran on street tires. what are you thinking.... 450 maybe 470 HP???? haha

Skyller I want to race ya real bad> :) How bout it? If U win i will give ya 500 if I win I will give ya a tissue :)

Hey Bri, whats goin on buddy? havn't seen ya on the board in a while... Well that sounds like a good bet to me, I've got nothing to loose and maybe I'll get lucky and your car will die or something.
haha.

I highly doubt you have 450-470. Probably more like 360-400 at the flywheel i would guess.

you really think it is that much? A friend told me about 300 is all. any other opinions that know people with my set up?

Skyler to tell u the truth a shopping cart could beat my car right now. Still putting her together. I have been real busy at work so not too much time is allowed on-line.. Be good bro i'll let ya know when my car is done.

fiveOguy20: what was the elevation of the track you ran at and what was the temp. etc, when you got the 107mph? I personally gained 6mph going from lacr(2700ft) to c/bad (200ft). a 13.2 is right about where 03 cobras are running stock, some faster/some slower. the best i got stock, heat of summer was 13.5- 106mph. 100deg+ outside. only time i had it to the track stock. anyways nice death;) take it easy!

You could all ways put a blower on yours and that would probably get you closer to 120mph:D

Leon Im going to C-bad w/ some friends saturday, u up for it?


Skyler

I can't go this saturday:( I have family coming over for the holiday weekend. I'm going to try and go on the 31st though! Not sure you would want to do back to back weekends?

Hey guys...long time since I have been on. I have to get a few words in here. My buddy was attacked by someone who stuck his own foot in his mouth...time for fun :D Ok. You said that it is all in the setup...apparently you don't know how to set a car up. I had a friend with a 347 that had the same problems. I ran mine on the dyno before I put my blower on it and made 380 rwhp. Your mph is indicating around 275-285 rwhp...gears do have something to do with your times though. Here is what I see wrong.

Bcam in a 347? Not the best choice
GT-40's in a 347? Bad choice too...ok if ported really good
Good Intake
What fuel system?
What exhaust?

You should run around 113-115 with a properly set up stroker. I say with your heads, cam, and exhaust you MIGHT get 110-111 max. They say you theoredically get 1 hp per cube if the block were all that was changed. So I say MAX you should make 330 rwhp with that combo. My buddy had a 347 with the Holley SystemMax2(better Intake, crappy cam, similar heads) and ran 107-108's with 3.73's. His car was jacked though.
