Exclamation ***LMR ZR1 Build Inside***

Just finished up G's new 2010 ZR1. These cars amaze me everytime we build one. They are simply just incredible street cars with how much tq they make at low rpms! Here are some pics and idle video. I am still editing the dyno vid and should have it done by the end of today for everyone to view. I hope you enjoy it G, you will have your hands full!

Was the blower ported and/or modified? Are LS9 heads similar enough to the LS3's where a LS3 based Whipple 2.9L or a KB 3.6L car bolt right on?
