he obviously has never seen parish's truck >.>. Note for BG: Parish built a twin turbo 408 for a regular cab short bed pickup truck. made 1200? rwhp or so. so, really, 'too powerful' is not exactly in our vocabulary.

I hope I win!

I have a tiny chassis that can use some brute force.

Pics and write up will be provided of course

I was just thinking the water pump looked like a PITA on all of these.

Good evening everyone


I wish I could share the exact experience as of 45 minutes ago. However I will say for 100% certain unquestionably the C7 is the corvette you want going forward. I am a brutally honest guy so here me out.....when the opportunity arrives I will order my C7 in black and black leather.
I know some of you are on the fence ....however....now is the time to save and sell ...SELL!

You do NOT want to miss out on what this car brings to the table and how it performs.

Will the C7 Z06 be offered in white all year models, or will it be another limited edition like the C5 & C6?

I'll check into that so that I am sure, give me 1 day maybe 2 max and I'll will give you a concrete answer you can stand on. I can honestly say these cars look very mean & aggressive in Black or either White!

Can you just cut the safety and danger bullshit already? Such a lame excuse.

When it comes to Big Brother....

What kind of forced induction does it use? Are we looking at the TVS again? To me the Rotrex and Lysholm type superchargers have some advantages. I'd imagine the disadvantages outweighed them when it came time to the LS9. It would be nice to get a little bit of input as to what were the pros and cons the engineers chose from.

The supercharger would sit in the valley right on top of the DI gear. This may be good in terms of sound suppression, but what about heat and safety?

Say one would like to explore a different forced induction compressor, if the boost can be provided to mirror the OEM unit close enough, could the ECU adjust for the rest (fine tuning) not requiring any dyno+tune time?

Bigg Gunz: When you say the LT1's "big brother" I'm assuming you mean the supercharged LT4 and not a larger than 6.2L displacement. Correct?
