Default Worlds Fastest C5 Corvette???
Customer brought us his 04 C5 corvette in hopes to be the worlds fastest IRS corvette. Just thought some of you might like to see some pics of the build in progress. Setup is an LSX 408ci motor with ET 265 6 bolt per cylinder heads and twin 78mm ball bearing turbos Everything you see is fabricated here in house. This setup will be making 2000hp and still have cold blowing A/C!
