The heads are CNC machined by GM already, but they can more than likely be improved upon. That is really awesome. A cam alone would prolly put it near 550

I'm not surprised, they didnt skimp on any parts for this motor, all high quality components, but with CNC like you said, always some power to be left cleaning things up. This car is trully a world class sports car at a relativley cheap price.

Stang Killer, NOS isnt because its part of a larger parts company, but TNT and NX are more than likley privatley held companies

I'll never be fast... Might as well get a civic, and hang out with the HonduH cr0wD.

Well what some of you call cheap is a lot of cash to me, msrp around 65k? Is that accurate?

Go to www.chevy.com they say it "starts" at $65,800!

Still a very sweet car, can't wait to see a Viper vs Vette (ZO6) in the mags.


Peace,
Craig.

65K isn't cheap, it's cheap for this caliber of vehicle.

Dealers aren't selling them for under 85K. Everybody is marking them way over sticker and not having any problem selling them. Even at that price it is the best HP/$ car on the market

I love the new Z06, but it isnt the best HP/$ on the market. That title would go to the craptastical SRT4. It is the best overall performing car for the dollar.

Just read one of the mags at the dentist office, I think R&T. Z06 vs Viper SRT10 vs Ford GT.....needless to say, the Z06 beat them both in lateral G's and overall performance. And was a little ahead in the $$$ department too
