well guys,
i know a lot about the mod motors and cobras/mach 1's, but the basic stuff is where i wanna start to solidify my knowledge on them.


block- is cast iron, how much can it hold?
pistons- whats the dish, what r they made of, what can they stand?
rods- what are they made of what can they handle?
crank- it's steel correct, how much can this stand?
injectors- what size?
fuel pump - size?

tranny- what are the gears in it, how much can the t-56 handle? tq/hp


i'll ask more as those get answered thanks,

 

All forged internals, don't know the dish size, 42# injectors. Don't know the size of the pump. From what I have seen stock block and tranny can handel up to 800-900 hp before letting go. All depending on how much boost and how much you beat up on it.

 

ok, how how much rwhp/rwtq can the rods and stuff handle?

 

Pistons: Mahle Forged Pistons- Reliable up to 650 hp


Rods: Manely H Beam Rods- Reliable up to 700 hp

Block: Cast Iron Windsor- Supposed to handle 1000hp+, but have been tested to hold over 1500hp!

Forged Steel Crank- Pretty much the same story as the block...

T56 transmissions have an OFFICIAL torque cap of 450ft/lbs, but have proven to be quite the troopers... There are 1000hp cobras, still with the stock T56. There are 9 sec cobras with bone stock trannies as well.


Cobra pumps are dual pumps... Each pump flows 119 lph... for a combined 238 lph

 

ok next question/ planning (im just coping and pasting from svtp)

i've always wanted a cobra to build to be the top rooster in the hen house i live in (AL). i was thinking 3.4 whipple, but decided to look into turbo's now im hooked. that being said this is a project that will take about 2 years due to an upcoming deployment

so i was wondering what yall's setups were, it's going to be a street DD with some track time... im especially interested in pump gas setups.

if ya'lls have any info on the hellraiser that would be great to know pro/cons on it as well.
