Na , where I worked with Jon at Huron speed on the first twin turbo c5 kit he cut me a price on it. So I can get a good deal on that. The rest of the cost would be fuel system. Until the motor needed built

Or until I do piston rods like you mentioned.
And I plan to ride it out on the tranny/rear and see how it does

As much as I would love to, I need to stay away from performance shops as they put a huge whole in my wallets. Lol
If my measly little YouTube channel had more views like streetspeed717s (mike) then I would be good to go. Lol not unless you want to build my car to outdo nicks zl1 he had CSP do haha.

It would be nothing for RPM to build you a car that would leave Nick's for dead. If we want to talk about Nick's car...he screwed up going with the stock block and the stock blower. Barely above 800 RWHP and he's going to have to put a big nitrous shot on it to get over 1000-1100 and when you have to spray every single pass to get your low 9s or 8s or whatever he's shooting for, you'll have rods hanging out of the bottom of your engine in no time. He's already being an apologist for their setup and "showing how far you can push the stock block" and stuff. A proper forged setup, a good blower either bigger PD/Twin Screw or a Procharger or Twin Turbos, and a built factory trans or TH400 and it would castrate Nick's. (Hey Fran, maybe a pretty good marketing tool to build a ZL1 that's faster than Nick's in a week? Cut McMuscle here a discount? Can you imagine the fire works at CSP/Nick, lol.)

Watch after all the stuff Nick did, going with the stock blower/block is going to cause him to be slower than Mike.

Lol, that dude just has more money than sense. I wasn’t impressed with his hp number by any means. Yeah, I’m okay with the stock block at least, but the stock blower on the car threw me for a loop, I was looking for at least a f1 pro charger or something. Also the huge $2000 dollar INTERCHILLER!! lol pretty neat concept, but would that much cooling affect and heat produce condensation inside ? I was curious about that... but then again it wouldn’t be any different than spraying meth through the intake I suppose???
That was just a thought process I was thinking about lol which I’m probably totally wrong.
That would be pretty cool to have a video out. Red on red zl1 action. Lol

Needs a translation from Virginian to Californian for me. I couldn't figure out if it means you are an alumni of Dragon University or you want to get cozy with me in Drag.
No thanks by the way.

Heatsoak is the #1 downfall of this car, especially if you race it. That interchiller is a good investment. WeaponX is coming out with one next month for a couple hundred less...literally just twice the price of a dual fan HEX...but will keep it cold.

Hah.

I found it rather cryptic. I like my way better than yours. Now I gotta get that thought out of my head.

Pretty sure it means "Drag on you" which when you "drag on" someone, you beat them in a race, roll or dig. So "Drag on you" is pretty much taunting every passerby that you'd "drag them" in a race.

Exactly lol thank you for the Virginia-California translation. Haha
I actually had this tag on my twin turbo fbody Camaro and when I sold it I transferred it to this car. I enjoy catchy license plates even if they are tacky.
