A stock 96-98 Cobra will make 255-265rwhp down to the paper filter. A Mark VIII typically dynos 220rwhp.

You need to take the manual vs auto thing into account.

stock marks can run anywhere from a 15.4 to a 14.4 depending on the year and how lucky you got of a stock car and I think although the times in magazine say those cobra run 13.9's, I've never seen a stock cobra run a 13 at the track in my life stock except for the supercharged and new ones of course. They are usually runing 14.2's all night long, but that could be driver error too.

Here is a website with a bunch of "stock" cars 0-60 times, and 1/4 mile times. Gives you a ball park figure.

I've never seen a Mark VIII not be able to run low 15's bone stock with a tuned up engine. 96-98 Cobras run high 13's/low 14's stock all day. The convertible Cobras are a bit slower, probably 14.2-14.5.
