Here is a great little write up on the car!

Just walked out the door from Sema and this C6RS was about the last thing we had time to look at. Pretty cool setup but nobody really knew anything about it? I suppose it's all top secret stuff!:We'll have time to snap some pictures of it tommorow...........we'll post up.Traver

 

I'm sure its 20k-22k.

 

A lot less than that.

 

Who the hell cares about cost! If you have to worry about the cost of this piece of art, you can't afford it, and if you can't afford it, just enjoy it for what it is. Don't ruin the thread with ridiculous bickering about why this is so expensive, because its really obvious.

Katech has done an amazing job, and its quite obvious their engineering is top notch to build a motor of this caliber. My hats off to these guys, plain and simple.

 

I agree with Haans 100%......it is what it is,an awesome setup! Let's not loose sleep over the price and let's just enjoy all the new stuff and info.Traver

 

how much power do u think u could get out of this motor if u put intake cam and all that into it u said it pretty close to stock right except for the raised deck hight ?

 

Hmm, 500ci vs 346? I think it'll make about stock power....

 

i didnt ask anything about a stock ls1 no need to talk **** im asking they said the motor is nearly stock except raised deck hight and stroke so how hp could u get out of this block if built

 

Entire Vette with the Katech engine is $250K.

 

Try some punctuation, capitalizing some of your words and, then maybe people might actually be able to understand your questions. Judging from your 25.63 posts per day and responses in this thread most of your post are like this. AKA useless.

PS: Read your sig:

FTRA / K&N / FT 85MM LID / ZO6 MAF / BELOWS / 90MM NW TB / COOLANT BYPASS /
PORTED FAST90 / CUSTOM CAM / AFR 205 / KOOK LT / KOOK ORY / MAGNAFLOW CAT BACK /
3'' ELEC. CUT OUT / CROMOLY PUSH RODS / LS7 LIFTERS / ARP MAIN BOLTS / BULIT T56 / 12 BOLT MOOSER /

Good lord.

 

Although you have a point, you're not exactly a grammar god yourself. Grammar and sentence structure doesn't seem to be your forte either.

ANYWAY, I'd asume with a good head / cam / intake combo, a 500ci motor should do around 740 - 750 horse realistically.

 

how well do u think it would behave on the street ?

 

This one would behave like a stock car until you stuck your foot in it.


A little work on the heads, and I mean a LITTLE, and a PROPER cam, this thing could do 700++ flywheel pretty easy. Still have good street manners and relatively good gas mileage...

 

so the more cubic in. u have, the better the car will drive with higher hp ?

 

More cubes means more air. More air means more power. Think of your motor as a big air pump. The more air you can move through it, the more power you're going to make.

Bigger cubed motors have more room for air, so you can run bigger cams, bigger heads, and better flowing intakes. The motor will make a ton more power but keep the drivability of a smaller motor with a comprable size cam for it's cubes.

That's about it in lame men's terms. Do some reading, there's so much information about the mechanics of motors out there!

 

do u think it would be possible to make a spacer for the ls1 to go in between the heads and block so u could increase the stroke ?

Visit this forum for a while. You're asking these questions in the wrong place.

 

I'll agree to parts of that.

Back on topic: What made you guys decide to design a new block?
