new best ET
Not out of the L, but out of the Cobra 13.26 @ 104. Even better was beating a friend who had his 99 Vette out and got a new best of 13.34 @ 105 (on drag radials w/ Corsa exh. and a intake kit). Still the only thing done to the Cobra is the 3.55 gears.

Actually, that's an outstanding time with so little mods to a 4v Cobra.
We all run in different venues/air and track conditions, but the best I got out of mine with just gears (3.73) was 13.82/102+mph.
What are your 60' times? You are definitely getting very good ET for the power (assuming you're not running slicks...and I don't believe you were, correct?).

Here is the slip
Wes, this is with the original tires, no K&N, only mod is the gears. I tried several things in the past (IMRC delete, short runnuer intake, resistor in air temp sender), but none helped so I put it back to stock.

Wow. Great 60' time. Best I usually manage with _huge_ 315/35-17 tires in the rear is 2.05-2.10. But, even 60'times like this still allow me to run 13.3-13.4 on motor.
Norwalk must be pretty darn sticky. I noticed the other car had a great ET for _only_ running 110+mph. Very few cars break into the 11s running 110.
I never tried the IMRC deletes, but have found a few things that do work and have tested them on the dyno. Simple stuff that lots of people do...pulleys, Pro-M, hi-flow cat h-pipe. These 3 items were worth a solid 25hp/25tq at the rear wheels.
