One of the baddest Z06s i have ever seen. Nice job guys, hopefully i can see one in South Fl. soon. If the Z06 stock flies, this thing is on a totally higher level it might just hit space.

That is one of the coolest things I've seen in a long time.

One question for Jason:

I am wondering why there is no custom intake manifold? It seems that for the level of customer this product is targeted for that an extra 3-5k dollars wouldn't be that big of an issue. Wouldn't an ITB design manifold make a huge difference horsepower wise on that engine while taming that large camshaft for the street?

I am really just curious. I know a small fraction of what you know in regards to these engines so I am just trying to learn something.

Thanks
Macky

Personally, at no time would I consider LPE over Katech. There are several shops that I would go to before I went to LPE. Like I said, PERSONALLY...

its not really necesary for that level of power...its much easier and cheaper to setup with just a cam swap + internals. im sure if a customer wanted 7 or 800hp they might go to the ITB setup but with the big cubes of the 427 theres no reason to use them if the LS7 flows enough to make their target power

Wow, very nice setup.

To second a comment made earlier, Katech would be at or near the top for a dream build if/when I have the disposable income. With them would be W2W. Both of these two shops cease to amaze me.
