The reason I like those more is just simply because of the power output. the cobra says 320HP-317FtLB and the Mach's say 305HP-315FtLB.
Is the really much of a difference when we talk about a 60Hp difference cause I bleive the GT's are 260Hp-302FtLB and the Bullitt GT is 265HP-315Ftlb.

Should I be looking more towards the HP or the FT-LB output? Just wondering because The bullitt gt has 55 HP less than the cobra and only has 2 FT LB's less.

Any info is grealty appreciated.

the mach1 is really closer to 325/335 and is faster ni a staight line then teh Cobra, the cobra has it in turns though due to the IRS and a little heavier front end

I was in teh same place last week..Cobra or Mach1..I went mach1 after driving both...not AT ALL disapointed.
