[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 12658417, member: 68944"] That's me. Ya the ss will still make about 24+whp more than the cobra up here like I said earlier. At sea level it's about 28-30whp, favoring the ls mills. This means its still faster assuming its an m6. Gear wise, any gear shorter than the stock 3.27 upto about a 4.56? (I havent done the math) or so will get an 01 to a higher top speed than the factory gear if the gear and rev limiter deactivation are the only mods. Stock 5th is really tall and with the 3.27, the engine cant get back into the 5800-6500rpms sweet spot. It cant continue accelerating much passed 160 because its too low in the rpms (5200~?) and not maximizing the motors powerband. With 4.10's or 4.30's, 5th kicks in about 3-500rpms higher and the car is making about 20-40 more horsepower so it reaches a higher speed. 4th I believe goes to about 140 in these cars but I could be wrong, I do know you have to get in 5th to do 160 and that stock it's too tall/comes in below the rev range's powerband to go much faster. Ideally for top speed, you'd want to pick a gear that puts the car at 165mph around 6000rpms in 5th so that you could maybe hit 170. I haven't done the math, but I'd guesstimate that the 270~whp of an 01 with its .35? (Not quite sure) drag coefficient should do 170 maximized. I've been in stock 03 gt's here at 4300ft that burried 150 so it's likely that I'm not far off with 170 at sea level in an 01. I know a few fbody's have been clocked there and faster bone stock.
