Default Z Reborn
This will follow the rebuild of my fallen 2003 Z06 from pretty much the ground up. The project is actually well on
its way and thusfar has been a blast.



The motor is a LS3 427ci with TF heads and all the trimings. Motor should be done in next month but ill show a video of timeline of my 2003 Z06 from blowen engine to cammed then H/C and now start building the 1000Hp Z
