No not yet. It's sitting in the garage without a motor. I think I'm going to put 5.3 or 6.0 and sell it.

Yes I always waived at vettes when I was in the Camaro lol. No big plans right now. Biggest thing to improve on at the moment is shifting. Once I get it down good I will start thinking about some mods. What mods do you guys recommend for a vette? It's harder to mod a vette since they're already setup so much better than the f-body's I'm used to modding. I'm kinda wanting to do most of the bolt-ons with tune and see how high I can get it to trap

I got mine to trap 118 on street tires with just bolt ons. 1st thing I would do is the column lock bypass (search it on vetteforums) then intake, headers, I'd leave the stock TI exhaust but mod it (search on vetteforums) then dyno tune. I went 11's in my 01 with just bolt ons. They are solid cars for sure. I gotta get some tires and run it with the cam now and see what it does. Also I would swap out the headlights, you lose like 40 lbs going to fixed ones. I a getting redy to do mine. What year is yours?

Is it a 5.0 coyote? Yeah 5s is ridiculous, I drive a turd though so any single digit car is voodoo.

Mine is an 01 also. I'd like to get it to trap 118 with a few bolt-ons. I'd like to do intake, and than just remove the cats instead of lt's. Vette exhaust already flows pretty well. And than get street tune. And sorry, but I hate those fixed lights. They look real cheezy IMO.

Cai, tune, and headers will wake it up a lot. My dads 04Z made 377/371 with just Cai/tune, if I did headers it'd be around mid to low 390s from what the shop told me. Stock with Cai it made like 360whp

I'd also do a C6Z shifter, I hate the c5 shifter/**** with a passion who ever decided to put that in the car is an idiot

It's funnier in a box, because then they dig through it and get it on their hands.

Thanks! I got a wallet made from retired bunker gear and the weather is great. Not a bad day.
