Well, unfortunately, the numbers are nowhere near expected. There are issues that's keeping the motor from running its' full potential. Once those issues are resolved, who knows. I'm just looking forward to having this thing run the way it's supposed to be run (and run right for the $$$ I paid that shop) - I'm in good hands now though.



Also his port is stage 3 and i think hes still on B heads.... WAAAAAY to much intake port for an N/A 4.6..

As I've said before, a B-head can be great for N/A motors, it's just not as great on mildly modded motors. A B-headed car that has stage 3 port, cams, intake, bolt ons, will net as much, if not more than a C head car. That's why I went B-head for my GT, I plan on going high-end N/A work with high RPMs which I'll greatly benefit from with that "WAAAAAY" too much intake, don't take offense, but I feel like you don't have much confidence in the B head cars which has become protocol for guys who believe just because C head cars came with better performance stock, which means they are ultimately better overall, which is wrong.

Just build the damn thing already, and quit asking the same god damned questions over and over...

And B heads for high rpm hp, FTW... If your building a N/A Cobra, you want a lot of gear, and a lot of rpm, and the B heads are better suited to that...

Hey we're all particular with our goals and want them to be as perfect as can be, so if he has questions then let people answer them. I can feel him somewhat because if I recall the guy is 18 or so, so am I, and with limited knowledge it's nice to have input from whoever can help.

Ah... kids kids kids...

With na cars, you want the most free flow heads as possible!!! The faster you can get the air in then out the faster you can get more air in then out. The better the flow between intake manafold, heads, cams, exhaust, the better power you will make. If you go with hudge head and cams your tq may suffer a little but your power will be great and be wayyy up in the rpm range. 11's won't be a problem, put some crazzy gears in the rear and shift the crap out of it and you will be just fine. But like I have said many times before, to get your hp and tq higher you SHOULD get a 5.1. It will help mellow out your cams for daily driving if you decide to go with a massive cam setup and bring your power band down a little lower in the rpm range and bring your tq up a little there is no reason not tooo... And yes we did jack your thread a lil but ls cars are a perfect example of great na setups...
