that car has to have some serious mods done to do a 8.93. I know these cars respond well to tunes and slight mods that will get you in the mid 11's high 10's but to run a 8.93 there is some serious work done.

His post alludes to it being a Ford Racing Cobra Jet Mustang, not a production model car.

I apologize yes it is the racing Cobra, series Mods I am sure, serious jingle to around 100K but to be able to buy one turnkey with Ford engineers on call when you need it is plus..He use to run for a long time a SS/AH and said it sure is nice to make a bunch of runs and not cost 1000 bucks each pass(being sarcastic)

Different engine combo than the Stocker combo's.

The "Super Cobra Jet" is rated at 500 hp and runs in SS/AA or SS/BA. Aluminum block with a bigger supercharger than the Stocker motor.

Rumor has it that one of those motors made 1200+ hp. Only 200 hp more than the best Hemi ever built...

Supercharger and aluminum block pretty much tells the tale.
Some guy brought one of these things to our local track a couple weeks ago. Pulls out there and clicks off a 6.13 and gets kicked out of the track because he didnt even have a fire jacket Told lil Bro that he just bought it to play with
