Another friend of mine with a '97 ext cab Silverado w/STS Turbo went 14.30 (didn't see the pass so I don't know the mph). It wasn't hooking, boost leak, and trans would shift into drive then go right back to 2nd. So once he address those problems he may get into the 13s. Another friend of mine was testing a customers cobra. The factory blower was removed and replaced with twin turbo, the manual trans was replaced with a Ford AOD, and it has a Ford 9 inch rear end. He drove it to the track from Lafayette. It ran a best of 11.40 @ 130mph on drag radial....needless to say it was blistering those poor drag radials. Next time out with it, it will have 28 x 10.5 ET Drags and a small shot of nitrous. Goal is to get the cobra in the 9s.
