That is badass! I imagine that thing would be unreal!
So, when are you getting it on track?!
So 8 months after my initial order/deposit, I received an email from the factory that my car is ready to ship! It was initially a 6 month expected wait, but Covid tripped up some of their suppliers.
In the meantime, I finished modifying the LT5 with heads, cam, ARP bolts, pulley, lifters, etc etc and made this video of the build:
Here are the photos from the factory of my actual car. It's shipping asap so hopefully it gets here sooner rather than later.

Is this what you buy when you look at a C8 and think "I like it but there is way too much rear window"?

Love the all out track weapon you bought, just curious as I don't know much about the options......did you have other motor options besides the LT options?
That looks like a handful! Always great to have the boxers checking up on you while working in the shop
Nice to hear that the kit is on the way to you, and the engine is ready to go. Then the assembly fun will begin. Can't wait to watch the "first drive" video.

While I LOVE that you're building big power...is there a point where its just too much and you'll upset the handling characteristics because you can't be smooth enough with throttle transitions? (with that much power on tap and only 90* of throttle blade opening, power must change dramatically with just a few degrees)
With turbos you can just use a boost controller to dial it down some...is there something like that available for a crank driven blower....?
