They rate it at 701 at the Wheels. They have some video on previous builds with Dyno on C5 and u-Tube. Check it out....I promise it will be well worth the watch!

Sweet Moses!

It'll be interesting to see if it is done in a week. LPE timeframe is 3-4 weeks.

They build race cars, sooooo I'm placing my faith in their rep and the research I did before going with them Vs other company's I was looking at. Since ur in Tx it would probably be best if you went by and checked them out. I went by this afternoon to check out the progress and there was a crew there that was getting ready to film the build(Gearhead Flicks) so I'm guessing it will get posted for all to see. I took a few pics today of my baby in pieces with some of the new parts laid out getting ready for the install that I'm gonna try and post on here when I figure out this iPad app.

That sounds about right if you count the time it took for them to get the laundry list of parts in and prepped for my build. They didn't give me the date to come here till everything was in place. I can see LPE taking that long because they are probably a larger company and they have multiple builds going at the same time. I actually talked to LPE and that's the vibe that I got from them. I'm keeping my fingers crossed though.....hopefully Murphy got rained in with all the friggin bad weather in TX right now...lol!

I'm sure they will do a great job. So probably Different heads, internals, cam, headers, throttle body and injectors maybe? 9lbs is about what stock supercharged engines run most of the time the ZR1 run 10.5lbs I think.. Are you going to have it tunnned for E85. I'm running on E85 now and it sure is cheap "race" fuel

At 9lbs you should be able to run 91 octane though. Anyway you are going to have a smile on your face so big a bad divorce couldn't erase it

Ur running E85?! I hear u have to buy that stuff by tha Barrel unless ur in certain areas. Did u ever run Meth? Is meth even needed with a good install and tune?

FOG52 · 07-10-2012, 04:18 PM

Yeah E85 is $2.35 a gallon with my Kroger points

I don't run methanol. If I can't find E 85 I run it to almost empty and flash in my 93 or 93/Torco tune and fill up on 93 or 93/torco . Its not a big deal takes about 5 minutes to do. A Chevy dealership near me also sells E85 I go there some times but I can't use my Kroger points :( The E 85 loves the boost you can really up the boost on it if your injectors and fuel pump are big enough to supply the fuel. E 85 takes about 30% more fuel for a given hp.
