Hahaha so true. I drove mine for only ~110 miles stock before I slapped parts on it. New pulley and mid pipe should be at my house tomorrow :goodjob:Quote:

Not really aiming for anything. Just having fun with the car. Wouldnt be surprised to see 740rwhp and 740ftlbs.Quote:

If the vette is making 500whp then the gt needs to make 600whp...
I always like that ratio !!!!! lol

I love both cars..and I really came close to trading in the C6 for the new gt500....but ended up spending some more money and getting some more power...and for now I am content again...
When I start getting my butt whooped again it'll be time to upgrade !

My 4 seater muscle car can take your 2 seater, light weight, 20K more expensive sports car.
My 2 seater sports car can take your 662hp supercharged v8 while making 100hp less.
It goes both ways :taun:
Yes..but your 662 hp 4 door car prolly cost 20k more then my BRAND NEW C6....
I got a good deal : - )
4 door?:thinking:Quote:

Ok, no more thread jacking from me. More pictures OP :camera:
lol, i dont mind at all. i love a little ford vs chevy rivalry. as soon as some parts show up il b posting updates but im getting a little fed up that a 2-3 week order has turned into 2 months. i realy expected to have her running by now.

Bases are also the lightest...mine is lighter then a Z06...by a few lbs...I tipped the scales at 3208 but I have saved approx 40 lbs off of stock so I am about 3160....the Z is about 3200 lbs..
My 2600lb car gets better gas mileage than either of you :taun:

well i got a tracking number for everything today and my parts should b here on friday.... im like a little kid at Christmas!!!
I don't usually get on IA, but when I do, I look for threads like this one.
ok, parts showed up sat while i was at the beach so i cut my vacation short and ran home. sun morning i got started reasembaly of my engine. ran into a few snags along the way but nothing major. i had full intention of posting a startup video with this post but hopefully that will happen this afternoon. the last snag was the arp head studs were a lil taller than factory bolts and were in the way of the headers so i have to pull them and do a little grinding in a few spots. i wanted to take more pics but with the parts in my hand "AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT"
