However, the 03 Cobras are definitely something to reckon with. It's very hard to beat how well blown engines like that one respond to bolt ons.

someone forgot to tell bob cosby DOHC 4.6s dont respond well to boltons with no power adders.

It doesn't compared to the LS1. I think he only makes about 320 rwhp with quite a few bolt ons. He runs such great times by putting all the power to the ground, driving well and weight reduction.

youre absolutely right.i own an ls1 and i think in any form its better than a DOHC 4.6.im just giving an example of how dyno #s dont tell the whole story.

ETs measure how a car runs not a dyno.

im willing to bet i have more power than bob but i cant touch his time.
