Default WTT/S: 2000 C5 Convertible Corvette w/408 for FD RX7 w/LSx Swap or Sim

Year: 2000
Make: Chevrolet
Model: Corvette
Price: $21500
Mileage: 44900
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): AZ
Color: Green
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive
LS Engine?: Car has LS engine

Ok I am at work and ran across another FD RX7 and well... I can't resist so I am going to post up all the information I can off the top of my head and see if anyone is interested. Other LSx swaps might interest me too... guess I am just looking to move on from the C5.

This is a recently built (aka the last 3 months by Loud Pedal Motorsports and Tuned by NicD) 408 Stroker Convertible Corvette.

408 Stroker, Forged with ARP Hardware.
Comp Cam Recommend by Larry's Engine and Marine (see pic of Cam Card for Specs)
CPR Ported LS3 Intake and 90mm TB (LS2)
LS3 Injectors
LS3 Heads with Trunion Upgrade
Monster Stage 2 Clutch and Lightweight flywheel
DTE Stage 2 Diff with 3.90 Gears
EOS Trans/Diff Brace
Headers, exhaust (Borla Stingers and X-Pipe) etc.
LPE Fuel Pump Upgrade (Walbro 255)
Blackwing Intake w/Ice Box
Kenny Bell Boost a Pump and Hot Wire Kit
E85 and 91 Octane Dyno Tunes
Evo 8 Recaro Seats
C6Z Shifter
Drilled and Slotted Rotors
Dewitts Aluminum Radiator
Z06 Gauge Cluster
Black Interior
It has the HUD Display
HID Fog's too and I have HID's for the headlights but have yet to get the projector housings.
Switch Back Turn Signals in Black non-tinted housings
A Ton of Radio Stuff installed professionally including a Pioneer Nav Deck w/Bluetooth and 2200 Watt 5 Channel amp Powering all 5 speakers a Kicker LM7 Sub in Custom Sub Box.
A lot more I am forgetting... I keep adding more as I remember
I just swapped out the wheels I will get new pictures to show them but they are C5 Deep Dish Polished and Black style. They are also 18's all around so C6Z Brakes can now be added.

Top is Black not Tan and is in good shape.
Most of the interior is now black including the seat belts. I choose not to switch the carpet because I liked the small amount of Tan with the Green.

I also just bought the Tiger Shark Front bumper but it was a little more beat up then I wanted so its with a shop being worked on. If they finish it in time I will sell it with the car at the asking price. If not I will sell it separately.

I want a Manual Only FD RX7. I may think about a Z3 or 3 Series BMW or others but they have to be swapped and they have to be manual. I am also now looking into RX8's to do the swap so I will take a car to work on plus cash now.

PM me and I can get more information, pictures, videos etc.

i might be interested... do you have any more pics??

Chassis is a clean titled 93 base rx7 with 113K on it, the engine is from a 2000 Camaro SS with approx 68K on it when I got it..I prolly put another 5K since the swap...motor came as a complete pull out (engine/tranny). I used the hinson kit as I got a killer deal on it. Did the swap myself about 3years ago. Hardly drive the thing as Iam out of town alot for work. I installed edelbrock headers, new ported ls6 oil pump, new ls7 clutch, ls2 timing chain. Digital Dakota controls the speedo, and I have some glow shift gauges for the water temp, oil pressure, and volt meters. The car sits on greddy type s coilovers and ssr balken rims that I jus had powder coated black...no rips or tears in the interior, but the drivers side bolster has wear...no cracks in the dash, and everything is there.....I have never taken it to the track, nor have I had it dynoed, I jus like driving it! Iam located in phoenix AZ.

Chris

Umm I have a few from the Dyno yesterday. If you would have called you could have seen it in person I was in Phoenix at AZ Dyno Chip Yesterday.

Here is a picture on the Dyno:


And here are the new Widebody Fenders that came in this week, not sure when they will go on as the stocks are fine but everyone loves that widebody look.

Could you let me know a little more about your RX7 too. I am interested obviously and were pretty close to one another so this may just work out.

Alright I decided to start building an 89 Conquest TSi LSx swap, so I am ready to consider selling this.

I am going to ask members to get an idea on what I should ask but I would think 24.5k with all the paperwork on the build and its condition is fair.

Rather serious now, I found out the Conquest went from being in good shape to run into a pole 2 days after I saw it and then he decided to sell it... hints my dismay.

I am back to looking but I think an RX7 is what I want.

Asking 24.5k Cash for it as well 43k miles on it for the person that asked.

Just finished putting on PRC LS3 Heads, come the 11th it will be with NicD getting the tune dialed in and redyno'd.

I am still looking for an RX7 FD with an LSx Swap. Hell maybe another LSx Swapped Vehicle or Cash!

New Rims on, Dyno Results are in 485HP and 450Trq makes over 350Trq at less than 2500 RPM.

I will post dyno shots later but there you go its one hell of a setup. Next to work on is the Widebody kit.
