A stock ls3 is a tad faster and quicker than a stock c5z. With those mods I would expect it to be close to a mind bolt on c5z, should be close to a 120mph car, maybe 118 since its an auto. If he is a good driver you will have your hands full.

I'd keep it below 110 If you can.

Weight difference is closer to 600lbs I'm pretty sure. Still a lot but not 800lbs lol.

my frc weighed less than 3100 (scaled) no cats, titanium exhaust. believe the listed weight is 3150 or something in that area.

The first 500 miles are going to make u go crazy. But it all smooths out after about 1000 miles. It's well worth it. Awesome clutch.

Man that looks familiar.....lol....


Just don't beat on it the first 500 miles and let it break in. You'll get some chatter, but there's absolutely NO slip in a stage 3! Go get em Boss!
