I've been looking at heads. Some say just port stock ones others say go aftermarket. Im think TF 245's honestly. If decide boost later or spray thinking going 255's. Even then plan do a 429 stroker later maybe the 255's be best.

You are in Georgia now? When does Atlanta run test and tune? I have considered riding down there when I get the slicks, wot box, and poly motor mounts on the car. Maybe we could meet up there sometime before end of the season and have some fun runs, and bullshit about cars. You car is definitely a beast.

Honestly couldn't tell you. Closest track to me is Silver Dollar Raceway.

That was first choice. I want most out of this ls3 with h/c. Ive seen some make 550whp with h/C and great tuning. Vengeance will be doing my work.

"buy it and they will come"

vette owners are a unofficial club, we wave when we see each other and generally help each other out ......... unlike

I've never seen any gain on the dyno from my drivetrain changes.......and mine are far more drastic than most.

Excellent report!

So that guy said he'd never been beat by a Corvette, until your fine example of the species came along?

That is Fascinatin'… I have said the same thing in reverse and you'd be surprised how much crap that's come as a result. Yet I don't see a word of protest, from so much as a single Fordster. Wierd… Just wierd.

Great kill… can't wait to hear more about your ride as you move her on into the 'really-fast-lane'.

I'd personally LOVE to own a Corvette. But so far it's never been within my reach. My guess is that the good Lord knows that if he provided one, there'd be no livin' with me.

Whatta machine tho', right?
