I know the guy that owns that Z06 Vette. It was built at a LS1 specialty shop here in Houston called HPE. Its a 434 stroker (sleeved LS6 block IIRC), basically the stock 346ci block sleeved and stroked.
Anyhow, the video was taken at another LS1 specialty shop here in town called Geforce motorsports. Apparently Geforce bet HPE that the car wouldnt make over 550 rear wheel hp. If it did, the owner would get free dyno pulls for life at their shop. On that pull, the car put down 562 rwhp (which is actually closer to 650 crank HP after factoring drivetrain loss)
ETA: does anyone know why the search function will not work for me? |
