Cobra Make, Engine: Keith Craft built my monster 527 Shelby, Rob Camp @ KCM in Plano, TX installed, tested & tuned it and Dean Rosen @ Dynamic was magnificent in delivering my dream SPF #1857. Without these guys, I'd never have realized my dream.

My only point was that IF the current crop of FEs really make the power numbers that are being posted, these 2500-2800 pound cars should show quarter mile trap speeds in the mid-130s. The LS6 427 Corvettes do while weighing over 3500 pounds with driver.
My Keith Craft 427 / 527 has run:

10.23 @ 132
10.43 @ 139
10.87 @ 131

You did have it right when you said... Those people running 10 sec 130 mph Vettes, Vipers and Cobras set out to do just that!

I know that was true for me.
True for me also. You don't get "fast" inexpensively or by accident and it usually requires some cash to keep going fast.
