It's a 415 ci big bore/stroked LT5 w/ over 700hp. The same engine that powered Lingenfelter to 220+ mph for the magazines. Even with my wife in the car SW turned a 10.6 @134mph. It's a bad boy ZR-1 for sure.

We are doing great thanks. We are just trying to survive the summer months before it gets nice again. Why is it that so many of us Texans drive black on black Vettes? I guess we are gluttons for punishment.

When my car was stock in Feb, I ran 12.90 @111. I ran it a few days ago in the heat with tires, free flow exhaust, and chip and could not do better than 13.50's @108. These things do not react well to heat at all. They are a dog in the summer and great when its cold.

Also, keep in mind Daine was running the 12.9's at 111mph with a clogged up fuel filter. Honestly, I think it even has more in it than that. I don't 113mph is unacheivable. That was his first time to the track in that car.

When we had ours 12:60's-70's - low 114 to mid 115 through the traps. K&N with cat-back exhaust. I purchased this car from Ed Van Scoy.

Many L98 vettes run faster than that

Not stock they don't.
Scott 89, I have seen many L98s turn low 14s and even high 13s completely bone stock.....my own included. My stock L98 w/ 103k went 14.00 at 98mph, and it was on balding gatorbacks and 2.59s.
