I've read from magazines and from people on this forums that their 94-98 cobras got up to 55mph on 1st gear. My 97 cobra at 4k rmps only gets to about 20-25mph, with only 2k rpms left till redline, i don't think its possible that it can go all the way up to 45mph(what a website said).

What is wrong with my car?

 

i have a 94 Cobra and my 1st goes to about 40. if you cant get there you probably have a shorter gear which is better for your acceleration

 

gears.

 

my old cobra whent to like 25-30 mph with the 4:10s

 

so i should have like 4:10s or something? car feels like this: first geat spins, 2nd pulls like heck, so does 3 and 4. also 4th pull pretty good on the highway from 40-50 rolls too, so does 5th but not as good as 3 or 4th. Thanks for the replies, GOD Bless all!!!

Try that.. leave the mph blank, select your transmission and the gear your in, rpm your at, and keep plugging in different gear ratios (3.27, 3.73, 3.90, 4.10, 4.30) in untill it closely matches up. It will give you somewhat of an idea.

 

yeah i think its just the gear ratios. u should be happy with what u have...good accel.

 

great site![sm=happy046.gif], thanks!

 

I still have to find out what gears i have, but is a t56 swap a really worth it?

 

Is a T56 worth it? If you plan on making more HP someday and if you really find a need for 6th gear, then sure it's worth it.
