This engine cost just over $10,000 to be built, installed, and dyno tuned at Texas Speed. The car was shipped there in an enclosed car trailer, built/installed/tuned, and shipped back in an enclosed car trailer. The tuning was done by Tracy at Cincy Speed in Cincinnati he is very well known for his stuff in Cincinnati... hp tuners speed density tune nice and safe. The engine has less than 7,000 miles on it. Leak down test is spot on. The oil has had two lab test with great results.

MISC:
Shorty Antenna
Raptor shift light in defrost vent
The Bad:
-Front leather seats are getting a little worn "not bad".... Thats it!
This car with new speed density tune went 10.80 at 124 with a 150 sixty This car is only legal to an 11.50 because it does not have a roll bar. With a rollbar and the required safety equipment to make it legal, and a little bit of practice on the track, this is a mid 10 second car. The car was built with the intention of spraying a 250 shot of nitrous, but I haven't had the time to buy/install a kit. Spraying the car would easily put it in the high 9 second range. It is a forged engine and with proper tuning a big shot of spray would be very beneficial and safe. It is 3300 lbs. I love the car. It takes me back in time when i bought my first 99 ss but a new bigger badder F body is on the way so im making a little room for my next toy. Im a corvette guy now that im in my thirtys, so two F cars does not make sense at this point with three C6 vetts in the garage one wrecked 09 Zr-1. Like i described above im a fair guy... The car is priced to sell with 17 thousand in mods and the price of the car... you do the math. I Know our F cars are not bringing big money. You dont have to tell me the economy is bad, I know that. This car is not an economy car. Its for a guy who has money but wants a good deal. Some stuf on tech is priced outside of reality. Im selling this car to somone that may want to sell it after six months and not be upside down. $11,500 is the price no games this is what the market will allow at this point, so my expectations are inline. Nine thousand will not buy this car so please dont ask. This is a toy that i would like to sell, not have to sell... My house is paid off my cars are paid off. The only bills i have is tax, utilities, food and insurance. Im in no way tryn to be a dick... Im just tryn to get on the same page with a real buyer. I have viewed the way some guys just kill a post for some members. On the Corvette side we dont do that to our guys, so please dont taunt my add. I will be very happy to talk about the car over the phone so pm me your number or i will pm you mine. Thanks guys and have a great safe new year
Reasons I'm selling:
just want a forced induction car
It would take double the money to replicate this car and I absolutely do not need to sell it. I would just like to start a new project.
I'm not looking for trades unless it's really something special, not looking for quads, dirt bikes, bikes, etc.

Hey im in cincy to. I think i know your car. Were you the guy with a built 06 zo6 with an auto conversion and a new ZR1 at the track about once month over the summer? If so, that car is just sick. I rember this ss, it ******* moves out at the track! We talked for about twenty min on the last night the track was open, my dad loves this car he was talking about how hard it hooks and how straight goes. Why dont you race this car more often? I know i would! If I had that zo6 i would be racing that to. Am i correct to say that ZR1 runs mid tens and the zo6 runs in the low nines? That thing is a monster LOL. When i saw your ss run i thought you had ccws on it with slicks is that correct? If so will you sell the ccws with the car? please pm me your number if you see a tennessee number on your phone its me i just moved back forever. I have cash in hand!!!!!! you have PM

Yes sir you are correct that was my car. You were the young engineer that works in Tennessee right. I remember you and your dad very well. I hope all is well with you guys. This car is just as nice as the last time it was at the track. The ccw wheels are not in the price but we may be able to work a fair deal. This car is for sale ya know so I'm open to real offers. My direction is changing to forced induction. The money from this car will be going towards that cause. This add is a feeler, if no one wants the car it's going to be traded off to another member, If his car checks out. You have pm let me know.

I sold this car to LS2, I will completely vouch for this guy, he showed up no BS with cash. He sent me a deposit and I drove 12 hours to meet him.
I would absolutely not think twice about buying this car back from him. I've owned 6 fbods and this one was definitely the cleanest, and the paint is perfect.
I also did the majority of the work to the car, so I know it was done correctly. Nothing was skipped. Whoever is buying it is getting a hell of a car!

I will tell you that this guy is a stand up guy for sure. I think we should have more guys like this on here. He has the car priced to actually sell.. not like the one clown who has a wrecked 30th anniversary car with no motor or trans !!!!!! i know I'm new as far as being a member but i have been looking on here for a long time and most of the **** on here is way out of range. The problem is no one has any money.. This car should have sold the hour it was on here. it says sale pending but that may be just pending and not sold. I do see a lot of ifs and maybes on here. like i said before this guy knows the economy is not at its best, so he is making the necessary adjustments on the price. I will be the first to say the timing is not correct for me but ooh... how i want this car!!!!! i have actually seen thing the in action. such a ******* deal!
