What are you using for engine control? Electronics?
I dont know about the handling yet, only got about 10 miles on it!!
I took it to a local show wed. nite but still have a decent sized list of stuff to do before its done( if that ever happens) and I can drive it hard!!
I'm using a harness from Speartech with the Z06 computer and a LS2 Maf. Everything worked perfect.

It WILL get driven!! I have to get a real exhaust system on it yet before I can drive it much. We hung a couple of mufflers on the headers to get to a show and they hang way too low!!

To answer a few of the other questions, It is not Cortez silver, we added a little of this and a little of that until we had it where we wanted it.
I'm still up in the air about a console. Might just mock one up to see. I did order enough leather to do it just in case.
Thanks again for all the great comments
I will post some outside pics and hopefully some video yet this weekend.
