The Sleeper............

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deno's back on the road again!

Mods are:
A&A vortech system
03 Z06 Camshaft
Ported LS6 intake
Patriot 243 Heads
Lg Catted Long Tubes
AIS Methanol
Dual Gauge pod boost/fuel psi
A4 Transmission too boot!

Converter is not locked

I have to Thank Deno for the patience with this install we ran into some belt alignment issues as well as a head unit with bad bearings

The Car feels great, power comes on nice and smooth and just Rips!

Thank You Deno this thing truely is now a Sleeper

Advanced Dyno did a great job installing Andy's Vortech and with Andy figuring out the issues the install had.
The engine and A4 tranny has 72K miles on them.
I'm very happy with the outcome and looking forward to many smile miles

Thanks to a great shop and crew!

Took her out yesterday (Saturday) and she ran strong and hard...I know the feeling of waiting. I had to wait 6 weeks before mine's was all good to go.
It had different issues..and finally it all came together
You'll get it in time to enjoy the Corvette weather coming up

I finished it Friday and I made something to work while the part that isnt here yet. Put it on the dyno saturday and got after about 5-6 pulls at 10psi my rings decided they didnt want to play for much longer and a lot of blow by coming out of the exhaust. So, now I am saving for a new motor.
