NOMO dont let someone like 98 get under your skin, hes just pissed he doesnt have a Mustang. Ya know its typically the guys with ***** envy that wine so much about there displacemnet. See most of the GM folk still think theres no replacement for displacement.
And who brought up displacement in the first place? Maybe you should go back and read what YOU wrote. C'mon slugger, even you can do better than that.

I think Ford did a hell of a job putting the supercharger on it is kind of like Porshes and Ferraris adding their turbos and super shargers on their cars.
Hell, it is pretty hard to throw on a blower....some ingenious work there.

Let him continue to cry one day he will have enough pennies to buy a real car.
You like paying $25k for 260hp?

Nomo, from the quote I was talking about, it had absolutely nothing to do with LT1's or LS1's....so maybe you just replied to someone else? IDK?

Just keep in mind it's a blown 281ci and not a BIG block like in those pontons. If the Snake had the BIGBOY (ie 5.7)in it. The Ponton boys would pee in thier pants when one pulled up beside them. In 2006 they may indeed have the BIGBOY under the hood.

Yep, they'll move. I'd hope so for a blown Veeee8. If they didn't, I'd be disapointed in Ford, well more disapointed.
I think your name says it all KID! I have no idea what you are arguing about, and I am sure you do not either. One has a little more than a little ole 4.6 when you add the concept of forced induction. Run what you brung and who cares about displacement. If you want a car with more displacement buy one. As far as your car, how do you fair with an LS1 from about a 50 mph roll? I think the ole pushrod V8 from GM is not quite outdated yet.

Take care,

David

THE BOTTOM LINE IS STOCK VS. STOCK THE 03-04 COBRA IS FASTER THAN ANY STOCK CAMARO OR FIREBIRD LS-1 OR LT-1. THE CAR CAN TAKE ALL KINDS OF HELL U CAN THROW AT IT AND RESPONDS MUCH BETTER TO MODIFICATIONS. THE CAMAROS AND FIREBIRDS ARE GOOD CARS BUT THEY DON'T HOLD A CANDLE TO THE NEW COBRAS. THE FACT IT THE 03-04 COBRAS ARE THE BEST MUSCLE CARS EVER PRODUCED. AND DONT EVEN TRY TO SAY THE CORVETTE IS A MUSCLE CAR

hey whats up?about the argument between ford and chevy engines, my opinion is i love ford and the 03-04 cobras but im dissapointed that ford chose to go modular, and wont step of the displacement. Its not fair to compare a 4.6 to a 5.7. I also think that chevy has some bad *** cars camaro,vette,trans am.... Ford will definately need to step it up...the new Motor Trend i got today shows the Z06 rated @ 500 hp N/A with a 7.0. cost 75 k and is as fast as the ford GT

[/quote]Sorry 98 this is not aimed @ you but what kind of Mods are you talkin about for the LS1,because you know it will need some,right. It's like 98 said We have Blowers,there hard to keep up with, without going pretty extreme,{Cost Wise}with the LS1's

its a never ending battle between ford and chevy but i will say this..the only thing thats keeping gm alive with its sports cars are the vette and i dont see why people buy them..i mean $40k+ for something that can only carry 2 people?yeah the vette is bad a$$ but ford must have done something right with thier MODULAR V8S because they out sold the t/as and the z28s damn near every year..i just wish ford would but put a n/a 5.4 in the mustang and smoke every 2002 and below f body car so they will just shut up and end this war..i dont have a problem with t/as and camaros but the people who own them just think they are the $hit and when they get freaking slaughterd by an 03-04 cobra its ol it has a supercharger...i say just shut up and take your defeat
