Or just selling the camaro and bronco outright to put down some good cash.


What do you guys think?
The zl1 will never be as fast as your camaro.

I do have a 1 of 500 made zl575 Slp camaro here at stingray for 35k and i could prob get you a few k off that.

This is what it has done, because no one else will know up here. ALL done at slp and is under factory warrenty still. Magnason 2.3 blower at 5 lbs,eibach springs and sway bars, wheels and i put a set of invos on it. I dont knwo of anything else that it has if it does. Also has a additional 12k 1 year bumper to bumper gm certified warrenty.

COME TEST DRIVE IT IN THE MORNING.
But you would have to be quick due to alot of people wanting it.

That ZL575 that Mike is talking about looks mighty fine!!! Figure out how much you will lose when drive off of the lot with the 13-ZL1 and compare that to the ZL575 and go from there! either way will be sweet!

Honestly, after driving c6 z's and everything thing else in the world its mid class in the power department. I mean its a fast car and it will randomly spin all 4 tires, dont get me wrong its quick but that ZL camaro would probably beat it all around. Interior looks killer, gauges are nuts, seats arent really comfortable, ride is stiff and lastly the doors arent the tradional swing vertical doors.

The kicker is it looks and sounds amazing. Everyone and everywhere you go everyones attention is on you which is really cool. Its nuts though, you really cant express the attention you get from it.

Eric, sounds like your truck will be pretty close to what my old S10 was, a basicly stock 5.3 in a 3000lb truck. I ran mid 13's @ about 105-107mph on little 235 street tires. Was lotsa fun on the street tho.

Where'd your 5.3 come from? what heads? I used a LM7 with 862 heads, LS1 intake to clear the hood and sanderson shorty headers to clear the steering shaft.

it's a bone stock, unknown mileage 99 5.3 from All Pro in Auburndale. paid $450 for it with accessories. it still has truck intake, stock unported tb, and I am using ls1 fbody manifolds and stock y. I am very happy with it's performance. went 8.70's-8.80's all night with consistent 1.7 60's. then what really surprised me was we later discovered my linelock solenoid was sticking and I was dragging the front brakes during each pass. I have taken the line lock off and it moves much easier now. so I will be taking it out again this weekend to see what it will really do. I also just got done wiring/plumbing up a nitrous setup I picked up cheap off a friend. going to start with a 75-100 shot for now and probably step up to a 150-175 shot and run that until I get the rest of my stuff for the turbo setup
