Default Race Proven Motorsports C6Z Race Car Rebuild

Some of you may know my personal C6Z has been parked for almost 3 years now. It was the first C6 to go 8's. We changed the setup around a few times before adding a roll cage. I had Ron Rhodes do a 25.3 cage in it almost 2 years ago now. I ended up selling my engine to one customer my turbo kit to another and the 4l80 to another. So the car sat for a while as I focused on the shop. A few weeks ago im not sure what got into me but I just said F*ck... Im building my car and i want to race at Impost Vs domestic at MIR Nov 7-9. My car was a COMPLETE shell. So this is a FARRR stretch to build a full blown race car in that time frame. I will be racing it all next year in the local Ultra street races and the LSX races in real street. Ill update This as progress goes....

cant afford that right now. Got this blower and bracket at a steal so i bought it... I think it should be good though and i get a 50 lb weight break for running a belt driven setup.

Nice to see you building something to race! I probably won't make it to MIR, but will definitely see this car at Cecil next season.

In for updates.

You plan to head after atomicfusion's record at some Point? I'm sure this car will run good. I Never even knew you brought that car lol. Last time I was at the old shop was right after it hit the 8's. What did you ever do with the old red lt1 camaro?
