Do you just have a forged crank? What about the rods and pistons? If its just the crank I hope you got that done for free since it is a waste of money.

I have a forgedcobra crank in my GT and yes it does seem not quite as quick as with the iron GT crank... I remember seeing something about the GT crank being 16~ pounds lighter.

It'll be worth the extra weight when the car gets whats intended for it though.

only having a forged crank really wont make a difference at all...

Have you driven your car before and after adding a forged crank? I have and the car feels slightly more sluggish, but it could be a combo of many other things also... I definatlywouldnt rule it out though.

racer02GTstang

nope... havent driven it in awhile.. it doesnt have a motor in it yet... i get paid this upcoming week which will be enough for a k member to put the forged motor in... it will fill sluggish anyways though cuz i dropped the compression

Very cool... Lower compression? whats that?? Mine as well drive around on race gas with 91/93 octane prices these days.
