@twinscrewmach1 I had the same problem with them damn nittos. I couldnt get them to hook for shit. I was running 12.4 with nittos and got it down to 11.88 with slicks. I have an eaton swapped 01 cobra running 8.5 psi. I see you have a whipple now.. I like it. Good work
@tking07100 If you do the eaton swap you will not have to have forged internals. The pistons are already forged and so is the crank but the rods are not. I drove mine around for a year with stock internals and took it to the track several times. Although you will need a bigger fuel pump and a kenne bell boost-a-pump because you wont get enough fuel to make the 475 like i did on 10psi.
Well it wasnt easy. You have to replace a lot of your parts with 03-04 cobra parts. It would be easier to buy a kenne bell kit and go from there but its cheaper to do this. It costed me about 2500 for the swap but i had a buddy willing to donate the parts for his cobra. If you do the swap i might be able to help some.
get some slick and it will run mid 11's
