between a shelby or a blackjack, which would you get?


obviously, we all know my answer, but my friend is having a hard time making a decision between the two vehicles

so, what would you get?

Hmmmm yeah I'd go with the Blackjack

On an unrelated note, on Horsepower TV they are showing all the mods you can do with an 03-04 Cobra. I thought it was pretty cool, I've never seen them do power adders and such to a recent Cobra before.

I actually think it may be a re-run.

Shelby. It has more potential.

I like the Roush alot though and think it would have its way with the Shelby on a road course stock for stock.

isnt that the one where they did a pulley swap and tune and got a whoppin 12hp?


now all i can tell is a Stage3 Blackjack is supercharged with a M90, which is pretty weak of a blower compared to say a M112 thats used in the 03/04 Cobra and GT500, so a smaller blower is even less efficient, so thats gonna suck come mod time.

so im assuming this choice is between a standard Shelby GT and a standard Blackjack (non-sc'd), in which case id go with the Blackjack, cause it looks 100x better. if its between a GT500 and a Stage3 Blackjack then id go with the Shelby.

M90.. haha that's what the regal's got... didn't even the 03/04 cobras come with 112s?

I would pick the shelby..

more displacement = more potential, and the suspension is easily upgraded...
