Default A Nasty LT1 Vette

The owner says this thing has about 800hp. 600 on the motor and a 200 shot. That I'm not sure about. What I can tell you is that this car is absolutely flawless as far as appearance goes. There isn't a single scratch on it.

I know it has a set of air flow research heads. Thats really all I got out of him as far as mods go. The thing that makes me not doubt the hp numbers is that he is rich as hell. His other car is a viper.

It can be done. I see the 3 claw intake on there to. Most likely ported tb and intake with those afr heads it should flow nicely.

I don't know about this one, it sounds fishy to me. The car still has the AIR injection fittings and piping. Who has 600 hp and still runs the AIR? I took that off my car when it was stock. Where are the nitrous lines, solenoids, plate or nozzle?

Should have been sitting somewhere around that stock intake.

Beautiful car! As for the hp numbers, I'd say the same thing I told the kid with the 96 GT with stock looking motor who told me that he made 300 rwhp...show me the dyno sheet. That conversation ended real quick, lol.

There is a guy here that has a red auto C4 that runs bottom 12s that looks 100% stock. I saw it several years ago at the track making runs and knew something was up so I looked at it in the pits. I looked over ever hose and fitting in the engine bay for about 15 minutes while the owner stood off to the side with a smile on his face. Finally I gave up and asked him how he did it. He said the car was completely stock with a 150 kit. Then he pointed right behind the tb. It was a plate kit but you couldn't see the plate or the fittings at all. I have never seen a setup like that before.

A member of this site used to have a hidden nitrous setup on his lt1 firebird. The intake was drilled on the bottom and not a single line was seen anywhere. I knew it was there and still couldn't find it. Its funny what some people will do to keep a stock looking engine.

If I'm not mistaken, I see a dry nozzle sitting on the "lid", or whatever it's called on 'Vettes. There are LTX cars putting down hellacious numbers with the stock intake in place. Any LT4 or Air Gap can be painted to look stock, so I won't completely doubt the sleeper look. Maybe he means 600fwhp? I could see an AFR headed, cammed, bored, stroked, and bolted Gen II putting out some mean power, but 600 on motor?

Nice car regardless. I would like to see some times or dyno sheets though.

MANY people just took out everything of the compressor and just have it as a pulley
so having it there doesnt mean its hooked up
