That may be, but the fact remains that things can and do go wrong that can burn up these engines and the farther we get away from stock HP numbers the greater the likelyhood.Originally posted by bassin247
MJ's injector problem was on #4 (not the one he is having a problem with).
I think VT wants like $5300 for the iron block 302 stroker with billet oil pump gears. If anyone out there is interested please let me know, I can prolly get $300 shaved off the price if someone wants to go through the shop I use when I get mine(if thats what I end up doing, should no more end of next week).Originally posted by Griffin
I am in the process of looking at kits and getting it out of the way.
How much are those Stroker motors again?:coolman:
Not if you already have melted pistons in your cobra. Sure if your just looking for a go fast car, buy a GT and mod the hell out of it. When im talking stroker, its because I have piston issues. If the block is out, why not go stroker?Originally posted by jasil
When you start talking about new engines, live axles, and auto's it's better to go out and by GT or V6 and save some money.

I'm not a cobra expert, but show me 1 group of cars making 600 +hp on 92 octane. They don't exist or don't last long. Go to the other sites, LS1, Turbobuick and supra forums and ask them when pushing performance way beyond stock what gas they run, common answer is race gas. There have been many buicks pushing the stock "cast pistons" for years, they don't last forever, but race gas holds them together for while.
