Finally got a real phone with an amazing camera

Just playing with the camera on the Samsung Note 4. Wow what a difference from the Galaxy 4 I was using.

Had the wheels Opti Coated today!

Thanks to Bill at Touch Of Perfection. Wheels are Opti Coated and look like mirrors!

I just read your entire thread and am very impressed.

First, thanks for sharing all the detailed pictures. The car looks incredible and as you said, the matte white made the GM white look off-white. I am a fan of the white so I love your color scheme.

Second, do you have any more details on the engine and drivetrain build? Or did I overlook those details in the thread? The car sounds wicked - what exhaust are you running, which header, etc? Blower? And so forth? The car is just breathtaking!

Lastly, would you mind sharing an approximation as to the financial cost if one was to replicate your build by cosmetic and mechanical changes? If not, I understand. It's obvious you went top shelf and I really think that quality shines through.

Regardless, congratulations on what I consider the nicest ZL1 build I've seen. Your attention to detail is incredible and I really respect what you've done.

Very well done!

Thank you so much!!!!

I would rather keep costs private. I will say this build has not been cheap and it's not done

As for some of the performance parts, this invoice might help a little.. It's not extremely detailed. Using a mustang dino the car made around 690HP. The mustang dino is known as the "Heart Breaker" I would like to put the car on a Dynojet. That would show around 800HP. Take the numbers for what you will..
