    Default Eaton Cobras VS whipple ,KB cobra racing

    Has anyone beat whipple or KB cobra with their Eaton cobras?
    I raced my friends whipple cobra last saturday night, we went twice from 20mph and it was over fast since he couldnt get traction. So i did him a favor and went from 40mph and we were side by side until about 100mph and I pulled him by 1car and he let off.
    i raced another cobra same night with 6lb lower 2.93 upper and ported eaton from 50 mph and got him on top by 2 cars.

    My mods are 2lb lower 2.76 upper stage 4 ported eaton, Auto with 3800 stall, solid axle with 3:73 gears. and prostars. I couldnt believe that this is happening since I m racing them from roll.
    My goal is to run 9s with eaton.
    I have never dyoned my car. Cant wait to put bottle on the car soon.

    whipple cobra dyoned 603/570
    other cobra put down 535.575

    my old 03 had 2.80 pulley with 100 shot and this cobra pulls just like my old one.

    Interested in seeing the responses. I'm sure others have beaten KB/whipple cars. All kinds of factors, traction, driver mod, and endless others. Good job on beating them though!

    it all depends on the driver. i ran 10.90 @128.38 with my eaton at over 3800#s. with only 15.5#s of boost, which is enough to beat ALOT of the twin screws running around.

    but a twin screw running around with 600+ rwhp , SHOULD be able to go faster , but it doesnt always work out that way, lol.

    My buddy beat a 2.8LH KB Cobra with a 302 Stroker and stage III cams. His only mods were JLT CAI and had 2 cats removed. I will find the video.

    The camera is IN THE KB COBRA
