Actually, I'm gonna regret saying this but I'm really looking forward to seeing the first LS2 or even a L98 cobra hit the streets.
Me thinks that would be an excellent combination. 
There, I said it.....but will deny that I ever did.

10/10ths
Hmmm, my little black one only has 285HP. Alot less than 300rwhp
Actually if I'm correct 300rwhp = 1.35 x 300 = 405rwhp! Wow. I think that's about what John White has.... But he knows how to peddle....
I certainly learnt alot about my car and race tracks at the Nats. But 285 rwhp certainly kept me busy. I am hanging for this years Nats as I want to see how much I can improve...
But you have to love HORSEPOWER!

I doubt mine will be the first LS2 Cobra but after a trip to the Harrison shop next weekend I think (hope) I'll be departing with my deposit soon after. Then it's 1-2 years of hard work and we'll have a nice 400HP LS2 powered Cobra cruising the streets of Melbourne. Bring it on.  |

Mate I considered that new shortened custom IRS from Warwick but thought the extra $4000 was better spent elsewhere (namely paint). The reco'd R32 rear comes in at about $1500 which is pretty cheap for what you get. If it shatters down the track I can always go the exotic option - I hear with minor chassis mods it goes straight in.

Love it
Mike,
Love what you have done.
I look forward to rubbing guards with you on the track.
I must agree that the class we run in is exciting, some very good competitors and correct me if I am wrong but it is also the largest class making a podium finish hard earned.
Yes, I am the weakest link in my cars performance.
Phil

This is mostly for Sambo...but some others may not have seen these videos of a gardener douglas (UK based cobra kit) powered by an LS1.
http://www.gdcars.com/html/media.html
There's two videos but one is a 36Mb ride in the Demo thru the countryside on public roads, the other a 21Mb (low Res) high speed run around Elvington track.
I really like the Elvington footage.
Sambo, this will give you some idea how hard these things go.

Hi Mike, the other guys are right, a turkey pan would fit in perfectly. Great looking setup the way it is.
Regards.
