Exclamation **Another 1000hp Corvette from Late Model Racecraft**
Just finished up this automatic Corvette. We installed an RHS 427ci engine, stage 5 automatic transmission with circle d multi disc torque converter, F1R Procharger system with 8 rib flip drive, and our LMR 1000hp custom fuel system. Car made 850rwhp on 93 octane and methonal on 17lbs of boost and then made 974rwhp on C16 with 21lbs of boost.

Enjoy!

The flip drive makes it easy for vettes. I wish there was a similar option for fbodies.

Nice build. Obviously a bit shy of 1K as already advertised - we talk rwhp here on tech. Fwhp is for auto manufacturers.
