I'd skip the converter and heads and throw a VSR on it, way bigger bang for the buck!

You would need 4.10s to utilize the x1 in the auto. It would take your cam and let it rev to 74-7600 lol

Heads are purchased.

I'll post a teaser pic of the ports here in a bit lol

NA stuff just gets boring to me, you get used to the power in 5 mins and it costs wheelbarrows of cash to make it any faster.

Except for being a little cramped inside, vettes are fun to race.
Especially when you can whip up on a Hellcat or two.

Fast Hellcat, just bring out the other car.....

Indeed vettes are fun, until they break the whole drivetrain. Don't see many fast hellcats, most guys driving them think they are fast, but not many actually back it up.

Just being a realist, me and everyone I know that owns a vette has broken them while racing, doesnt matter if its NA and boosted. Snap an axle, blow the diff, smoke the trans, twist a torque tube, its a game we play with these things.
