Question

Actually the Cobra cam is more aggressive than the GT. It's about midlane between the stock HO cam and the E cam.

The Cobra cam isn't the best by any means, but it should make a little more power than the stock HO cam. Somebody help me out with the lift and duration on the Cobra cam. I think it's .530/.530 with a 208/216 duration with a 112LSA on 1.7:1 Cobra roller rockers.

The stock HO cam is like .444/.444 with a 211/211 duration and a 115 LSA. Even if you added 1.7's you'd get B cam lift with less duration. That would make the Cobra cam more aggressive than the stock cam.

As far as the handling, the Cobra featured lower springs, the bigger sway bar, and bigger brakes 17" wheels and more aggressive tires. Ford did go for ride quality, but they also built the car to be more aggressive at handling. I'd like to see the day a stock GT outhandles a Cobra.
