March 13. So that means that was BEFORE it ran -1.46 under? Refactored to 248 hp? Really? What a joke! I thought the DP 5.9 was soft! Jim

ALMACK, the stick cars got hp last year to 248, the auto cars got 13 hp 3-13-12 and 9 hp today to 257. Tom

Thanks Tom.

When those 3v CJ engines came out they started @ 230 hp.
Laughable, because they had special cnc ported heads, big cams, a hi-flow intake, and huge throttle body.

Before it's all said and done I predict the factored hp on that engine will be @ 300.

Re: 2013 5.0 Mustang testing at Bradenton
 

Just for the record they were rated 235hp to start. (Per NHRA's request)

I wish you clowns would get all your facts right before talk or post.

I predict the stick 281ci will stay at 248hp-253hp all year

The only thing that is a joke is you clowns jacking off on your key boards.
I wish one of you would bulid a 2010 CJ 281ci STICK. That is if you have the extra 70k around.

Classy post Charles. I'm sure your mom would be proud. Jim

Wow Charley, I'm impressed. A real generalization about all those who are on the board posting and their habits. Makes you look more like a clown than the most of us(there's always someone on every board that looks like a clown most of the time). The only reason you talk like that is because you own one of the cars with a very favourable HP rating. I'm quite sure you'd be just like many others here if you still had a different combo.
Everyone know's the HP ratings are a joke, but the fact you have the factories pushing these soft combos and you don't have to look deeply for an odd combo like some racers have done in the past, makes for a lot of soft combos and not just a rarity, is disturbing to many. I'm not knocking the fact that you were wise enough to play the game to your advantage, just that your post was in very poor taste as you implied everyone here(except for you) is a clown and you know that isn't the case.

To those that don't believe the Cobra Jet Hp factors are too soft:

From the add:
This car will run 1.50 under in E/SA at over 100lbs. heavy, with 6 quarts of XP3, timing backed down, and shifting 500 rpm early! No ice or chiller needed.

If you let it run at its peak, it can go more than 1.70 under. You can also set this car up to run at whatever you like in minutes!

#1 qualifier at the Infineon NHRA Divisional and National events. Qualified #6 at Vegas to avoid the AHFS trigger. ONLY RUNNING TO THE 1000' MARK EACH TIME!

Only 17 passes made since new.
