Mustang "Cobra SVT"
*****
New on the Market *****
Woodburn Dragstrip,
2011
This is a REAL Cobra SVT Mustang
with factory certification papers and the original build sheet. The car
has been 9.70 at over 140 mph. It has a 521" Ford that made 715 hp on
the Dynamometer. In this picture and the next one it had a Power-Glide auto and a Ford 9" with 4:11 gears and a spool.
We are upgrading this Mustang to run the low 9s.
Heating up the
Goodyears at Woodburn Dragstrip.
With this configuration the car ran low 10s as evidenced by the
10.14 dial on the windshield. Sixty foot times are around 1.50 with the
Power-Glide and 4.11 Super Gears.
This car is still 100%
street legal and can be licensed. It has interior, electric
windows, lights, all instruments and can run in the "Street Legal"
class.
We are in the process of modifying this car. I am
upgrading the motor to a bigger 532" thumper with 13.5 to 1 pistons. I am
installing a custom ground roller cam that lifts .810, has about 286 degrees duration @ .050"
lift and has a 112 lobe separation. I am
having the Ford Motorsports "Cobra Jet" heads ported by a race
shop (Bird Racing Engines) in Idaho. I am replacing the two speed Power-Glide with a
race-built Hughes Performance Turbo 400,
3-speed and I am probably changing to 4.30 rear gears. The Hughes
Turbo-400 has a special 2.75 first gear so I will try the existing 4.11
gears to see how the combination likes the higher ratio. My educated estimate is that this car
will run 9.20s at 148 mph. Sixty foot times should be about 1.25 - we'll
soon see how good my estimates are.
