Ok, here is the story I pulled from supercars.net. I have to give credit to the source ;-)

CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. – Katech Performance has made the Corvette C6 Z06 even better with more power and enhanced induction, cooling and exhaust. The C6 Z06 vehicle package (KAT-A4691) promises 600+ horsepower and fine finishing touches for enthusiasts who desire a truly unique Corvette.

To develop the package, Katech Performance consulted with endurance racing legend Dick Barbour of Dick Barbour Racing. Barbour's accomplishments include multiple 24 Hours of Le Mans and 12 Hours of Sebring class victories as well as three Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) championships.

"Katech's own rich motorsports history includes more than 50 driver's and manufacturer's championships," said Caleb Newman, vice president, director aftermarket operations, Katech Performance. "The C6 Z06 package draws from our collective expertise. We've crafted a vehicle worthy of the most astute Corvette aficionados."

The C6 Z06 package features a Katech Performance "Street Attack" LS7 engine with Katech forged 11:1 pistons, solid bushed titanium connecting rods, upgraded camshaft, high-lift beehive valvesprings, ultra-light titanium retainers and ported cylinder heads. Other modifications include a Katech adjustable billet aluminum belt tensioner, coil relocation brackets and paint-matched valve covers.

"Our Street Attack LS7 produces 600 horsepower for the C6 Z06," said Newman. "That's an increase of nearly 100 horsepower over stock. What we've created is one of the industry's most powerful yet durable and civilized engines. It's a thrill on the highway yet reserved on city streets. Our C6 Z06 is a true 600 horsepower daily driver."

Newman went on to explain that each Street Attack LS7 is hand built by the same technicians that produce championship winning engines for all Katech race programs. Each is meticulously calibrated and dyno-tested before leaving the facility.

Further C6 Z06 engine and exhaust enhancements include a Ron Davis custom aluminum radiator with integrated oil cooler, Goodridge oil cooler lines, high flow air filter, KoolMat race tunnel heat shield, Kooks ceramic-coated headers and a CORSA® 100-percent stainless steel performance exhaust system.

Katech Performance has enhanced the C6 Z06 transmission with a high-performance clutch and an RPM Transmission Stage IV T56 upgrade featuring 300M output shafts, bronze fork pads and cryo-treated, micropolished internals. Stoptech stainless steel braided brake lines and AP Racing Super 600 brake fluid have been added to ensure the C6 Z06 stops as quickly as it starts.

Inside, a Caravaggio hand-stitched steering wheel with a flat bottom, emergency brake boot and shift **** and boot make known the vehicle's elegant demeanor. Here the driver also will find a serialized Katech Performance manufacturer's plaque.

Here is the car

 

....chubby

 

VERY NICE!!!! It's official.... If i won the lotto, i would have one on order the same day!!!!
Very ****** NICE!! Wonder what the conversion costs?

 

Nice car, but the hood has to go.

 

I would imagine the hood is functional and necessary.

 

SOLD!!!!! I think thats badass! And I kinda like the hood. The only thing I would change is to have the lower air damn and spoiler match the color of the car.

 

Yeah it most definetely would be a super fun car to drive/own. The only problem I see with it is that it absolutely SCREAMS "Give me a ticket!!!" The best thing about this car is that you can actually purchase the entire C6 Katech Conversion Kit straight from Katech. They don't list a price on it but I bet you it would cost a pretty penny...

 

BADASS.... I actually like the hood, but I love the curves of the C6, damn.

 

Thanks for posting guys.

The hood is straight out of World Challenge racing and is very functional at reducing coolant/oil temps, underhood temps and increasing downforce.

Of course, everything is optional and we tailor it to the customer's requests.

 

I've been driving them for a year with no tickets. I now have one as a daily driver and no problems so far. I'm trying to be a good boy.

 

Your time will come, oh yes, your time will come.

No tickets tomorrow at the Katech track rental..... woohoo!
