Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
I hate big engines but that is a sweet ride just for fit-n-finish.

Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
That kind of power at that high of an RPM would be impossible to make with a standard valve layout 780 cube big block Chevrolet. Without some Big Cheifs and two Dominators I would have to see some actual dyno printouts to even start believing it would turn 8,000rpms making that kind of power...especially with an old school Offy intake.

Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
Yeah, I don't believe the rpm limit either. BBC's just don't have that range, even with a super light rotating assembly, which would be impossible with that big of pistons.

Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
aka its all rice...
|
Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
I would also like to see dyno results. Not because I doubt the validity of their claims, but you know, just cause...
|
Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
I'm sure you guys know about "Big Red". 540ci BBC that turns 8000rpm for hours. Max power at 7000rpm. I would think that the same would be possible of this engine.

Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
especially since its all made in-house. now unless they have a foundry, that means its all cnc'd billet. and then who knows, case hardened, shot peened, etc etc. i would also like to see a video of said car.
but until it is otherwise disproven it shall remain BADASS |
Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
Well, there are engines that are 200 CI smaller and make just as much N/A hp and rev higher. seems to me they actually just put a stupid huge engine in a small car. anyone can do that. it probably wieghs 3500 lbs.
Germans suck, i'll post why in a different thread. |
Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
I think it looks alright. Can't say I like it, but can't say I hate it.
|
Re: the germans build WAY better cobras than us
I've always liked the Cobra's. Just I would one with a '03 Cobra motor and make 600hp with a supercharger. Might be a bit more driveable and reliable than a 11.5:1 compression and always having to run race gas. But fun none the less.

Germans rock, son.
