Turbotrio Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 We got a new '08 C6Z to work on in JSB I LOVE this color in person and can't wait to see how it sounds with the new heads/cam and Kooks headers etc etc we are adding on. We will toss up some before/after dyno #s once the cam arrives http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/MarkMc6z.JPG http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/MarkMc6z%20(3).JPG http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/MarkMc6z%20(4).JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Custom decked cylinder heads and new exhaust valves, and a moderate cam, (im not sure the cam the customer picked out I think its a lethal cam from ragin racing) but it should make above 550 wheel NA after all is said and done, also adding our P&P throttle body, and intake, and some custom exhaust work. Its a nice project! I will try to get it up dated as we add parts -Brandon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam1647545489 Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Saw this car yesterday when I stopped by. I sat there staring at it in my truck for a few minutes. Car is sick as hell looking in that color. These pics do not do it justice and in person the car is amazing. I recommend just goin down there and looking at it.

Turbotrio Posted May 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Saw this car yesterday when I stopped by. I sat there staring at it in my truck for a few minutes. Car is sick as hell looking in that color. These pics do not do it justice and in person the car is amazing. I recommend just goin down there and looking at it. That is why I tried taking a close-up of the 427-badge with the cheap-o shop camera but it really doesn't show how cool the color is. It really does look a million times better in person. Just don't wreck it, the paint is STUPID expensive lol. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tbutera2112 Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 are you building all of these vettes to be the same? or are people switching it up a bit? seems like every z in the country is going to be an auto with turbos soon, the way you guys are hammering them out...and yes, i realize the plans for this one didnt include either of those things, just wondering though in general if youre doing a lot of these swaps like jason and marks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have done a few blower / auto C6Z conversions (The black car from Texas for example) as opposed to twin-turbo's. We have done a lot of nitrous and heads/cam builds as well so it all just depends on the owner. Since we are PFADT's largest distributor in the midwest we also have quite a few cars that show up for nothing but extensive suspension and brake upgrades as the cars are plenty fast for road-racing bone stock Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam1647545489 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 not arguing, just wondering if they are doing a lot of these swaps or just the few they have posted I think there are alot more people buying these vettes for 1/4 racing and there is nothing faster or more consistent in the 1/4 then an auto. You cant beat it for that style of racing. I am sure there are tons of others out there to that still like the 6 speed cause banging gears is just as fun as cranking out that good 1/4 mile time in an auto.
