This Corvette is set up well for track and autocross use. It is currently not street legal due to the emissions bypasses, but all removed emissions equipment is included with purchase upon request, can be re-installed by buyer for street use. Contact seller for installation quote. Cam and head port work are not emissions-certified, but vehicle should be able to pass smog tests in most states with factory emissions components re-installed. However, no emissions guarantees are made.

Vehicle sustained minor damage to right rear quarter panel and bumper cover in rear-end collision in 2007, but this damage has been professionally repaired.

Missing hinged cover for interior console ashtray/cupholder.

Rollbar is reinforced and professionally welded to frame and roof. Photos of installation available.

All oil system plumbing is done with stainless steel AN10 braided lines. System has connections for 3qt AccuSump oil accumulator (AccuSump not included).

There is some minor flatspotting or cording on autocross tires - may require rebalance for high-speed use. Two will need replacement soon. Street tires are fairly new, and have most of their tread left.

Vehicle is equipped with power seats, butthe driver's seat currently has a fixed mount to the frame and rollbar for safety purposes. Original power slide will be included with purchase if requested, and can be re-installed by seller. Passenger seat power slides function normally.

The seats are much stronger and more supportive than the factory seats in track or autocross use, but they are fully padded and quite confortable for the street as well. However, they do make it a bit harder to get in and out compared to the OEM seats.

OEM seatbelts are still installed in vehicle and are fully functional.

Has never been smoked in. Occasional tire smoke around outside, however.

Vehicle has always been garaged or covered. Custom-fit cloth cover included with purchase.

Delivery available within 200 mile radius - inquire for pricing.

The motor is still a 350 (5.7L), although the heads would be happy supporting a 383 stroker. Bottom end rotating assembly is basically stock LT1, but heads and exhaust flow much better than stock (and even better than LT4). With the 350 bottom end, the heads should be good for 370-390 RWHP, but with existing exhaust and TB it's a bit less. See http://www.eportworks.com/lt1.html for details.

Rev limit has been increased to 6050. Valve train should be good for 6300 all day according to Elliot, but others on this forum have said that with the stock LT1 bottom you don't want to exceed 6100 for too long. Street, drag race or auto-x use would probably be fine with a higher rev limit, but for road race 6050 seemed safer. The motor definitely wants to keep pulling past the rev limit...

I kept the engine compartment looking as close to stock as possible to avoid failing inspection - here are some pics. (Sorry for the sun glare)
