Default 1/4 et??

The intake is on back order so im just curious as to how much power and my 1/4 time.

I know the BBK intake outflowed a ported cobra by 35 horses in the last MM&FF. Take a guess and as soon as i get the intake installed im getting it dynod on one of those mustang dynos that can do 1/4 times and puts variables into the pull like wind resistance and what not. it gives a more realistic numbers than a regular dyno. My school just got it about 4 months ago and i wanted to give other people a chance to dyno their cars.

What more do you expect? It has a nice set of heads, but it's still just an E cam car with the entire BBK catalog on it. Mustang Dynos read low on power and quicker on ET. I actually think it won't even make 300rwhp on a Mustang Dyno. And it will run slower at a track.

fullAuto has a point: that cam is the limiting factor of that combo. Small custom cam=say hello to 300+rwhp.....

I honestly think your car is capable of dipping (barely) into the 12s, but it won't be esay... you better know how to drive that thing on the track

if a '95 Cobra with an E cam and gears/DRs can hit high 12s, why couldnt his hit a mid 12 at least?

You know as well as the rest of us here on this site..... It's a combination of power, vehicle weight, chassis, tire, driver skill, & how many little dirty tricks you know..... My mismatched combo made 320rwhp & 309rwtq, ran 12.13@114mph at 1,000ft. It made people ask,"What the hell & how?". I cheated with "old timer" tricks & drove the **** outta the thing..... Broke an aftermarket control arm only after about 12 runs too.....
