I'm new to the Cobra scene and it's funny to read about similiar situations with a lack of traction. I'm running a 460 (513ci) with twin 600 Edlebrock carbs and a lot of cam. I just got the car last week and the power is incredible. There is no question that it's tough to get the wheels to hook up and when I go from 3rd to 4th (Tremec 5sp) I could swear that turning the steering wheel would do nothing! It feels like I could almost use a wheelie bar. I am 100% convinced that the small block guys have it right with respect to weight savings and just as much (if not more) power on hand BUT there is something about a BB..we all have to get it out of our systems! Good luck!

Josh
