jus a little corvette build up. Hey guys. just wanted to post up a little build thread of my car/shop car. i bought this car about 6 months ago and never dreamed it would turn into what it is. MANY thanks to the help of many friends, as they helped me in the evenings when i closed up shop. car is a 2005 c6 corvette we are shooting for the fastest c6 NON ZO6 corvette out there.
This car will have all c6 parts and no ZO6 parts on it. no 345 on the back!!!! and we WILL run 8's!
here is what we original started with
ARR 225's with a ETMC port and polish job
sts twins with stage 3 turbos
408 stroker fully built
full drive line
Ais meth
FULL STEREO in the car
Full drive line upgrades
3500 stall,
trans brake
DD car!
Our dyno isnt load based so we cant get 2 full boost but at 15 PSI it made 898 HP and 989 TQ
JUST an FYI on the street it makes 20+ PSI
easy 1000RWHP car
Driven on 93 OCT gas everyday!
all work done by use here at East Texas Muscle Cars
This car is the one we build to shoot for the first c6 in the 8's( NON z06) full body car no weight reduction and no wide body!!!!!!!!! and we will soon get it!
well we had a few little bugs in her and we are starting over. we got a best of 6.6 @ 115MPH in the 1/8 with a 2.1 60 FT..lol....we have yet to be hard on her out of the hole. no boost out of the hole coming out off idle. car does have a trans brake but even with foot braking it could do a ton better if we tried to get the 60 down. problem we kept having is the heads lifting and blowing head gaskets. SOOOo here comes the LSX block now
sooooo to be here a LSX 427. with twin 67mm turbos....Trickflow 235's 6 bolt heads......so thats where we stand right now...with in the next couple of weeks we will have the motor here and start the build and i will have tons of pics.:smash:
