No. If both have the same motor set up, the Cobra will get it off the line and hold it's own every time. But at higher speeds, you're right (100mph plus) the Daytona will take over. Don't forget, that's why it was developed by Brock. The Cobras couldn't touch 180 mph in the straights and were getting there asses kicked by the Ferraris.

My best friends father just finished a FFR Shelby, that he built to original specs - even tracked down an old 427 side oiler and everything. Obviously, his build was fairly expensive, comparatively, but still a fraction of an original - and he can drive the shit out of it without worrying about losing value or anything.

That's not how a dry sump works. There is a reason why dry sumps are put into race cars and its to keep that oil cool and available to all parts of the engine.
@Loulovesspeed3 жыл бұрын
@@christschool - The early dry sump units were more for clearance issues, such as on the 1932 Alfa Romeo. The engine sat so low in the frame that a conventional oil pan would likely be damaged and leak, or be completely torn off. Race cars of that era ran on hard pan surface, no concrete or pavement. At high speed with lots of vertical chassis movement, they were often victims of destroyed oil pans. As you said, the dry sump units also contributed to better cooling of the engine oil.

Sweet build man. I think, at least for tracks like that, you could go with some shorter gears. It'll help you keep your revs up around those corners. Car seems pretty torquey, no dragging ass on the exits, but I think you could shave some time on mid to exit with higher RPMs.

@mfree802864 жыл бұрын
Wondering if the engine's oil pressure is referenced to atmosphere or case pressure, if atmosphere and it's a dry sump or has a vacuum pump then it's missing 10-14psi depending on how good scavenging is. Oil temp is REALLY low, that's going to cause problems later on with water contamination.... but also points to a dry sump, remote reservoir and extra capacity taking longer to heat up.

Also, don't bash on the old pushrod V8s... they can still easily make plenty of power and run well in a light FFR Coupe. They don't weigh much, their balance is like a dream, and they did run over 200mph 50 years ago... so they should be able to now even easier ;) also, running a GM LS engine... in a Shelby car... tsk tsk tsk lol :D

@@Matt-mh5ud its common knowledge that you need at least 10 psi for every 1000 rpm for safe engine operation under heavy loads. The pressure may or may not increase with rpm depending on engine design. You can use an oversized oil pump so the psi is a constant value but it wastes a lot of horse power. Quote " In a typical (stock) passenger car engine, the oil pressure is usually between 30 and 40 psi. And that’s sufficient to provide adequate lubrication to the various moving components. But most high performance (or race) engines require 50-60 psi or more for proper lubrication. There’s an old racing rule of thumb that still applies here: Approximately 10 psi of oil pressure is needed for every 1,000 rpm. As a result, a 7,500 rpm engine will mandate approximately 75 psi of oil. " pressure.www.onallcylinders.com/2014/10/23/oil-well-choosing-proper-pressure-volume-oil-pump/
