[QUOTE="Angus, post: 1307735, member: 3057"] I've owned both, dynoed both, modded both & raced both - [b]HARD.[/b] (Well, maybe not as hard as Bob or some other Mach owners here... ;) ) The Mach 1 is lighter, has more power/tq (especially TQ!) due to higher CR/better heads/better exhaust manifolds, has a better rear gear, is easier to drive (I DO NOT miss IRS when racing!), and is easier to race. As a result, [i]most[/i] will be faster than any pre-'03 Cobra ('00 R excluded) - poor driving non-withstanding. Dyno of my stock '03 Mach vs my stock '01 Cobra (both with about 700 miles on them): [IMG]http://home.kc.rr.com/kchof/01%204v%20vs%2003%204v.jpg[/IMG] My Mach has gone 13.01 @ 106.5 with "moderate" mods. (Gears/shifter/exhaust/drag radials/Cold-Air kit) My '01 Cobra went 13.02 @ 105 with "Tons-O-mods". (Gears/Headers/exhaust/drag radials/U/D pullies/Cold Air kit/Coil-overs front & rear/Light-weight tubular K-member/sf connectors/etc) Both cars weighed the same at the time of their best runs - ~ 3450 lbs. I do miss the Cobra's drop-top and the better ride of the IRS over bad roads, but that's it. The Mach 1 is simply an evolution of the N/A Cobras, and therefore [b]SHOULD[/b] be better. IMHO, it is.
