Default Update for our Spectre 341 Hill climb ZR1

Hi guys,

We cracked two milestones for our ZR1. Over 750 rwhp and over 800 rwtq.

This is the car that we will be taking to the Spectre 341 Hill climb again for this year's run up the mountain. We won it last year but we know that the other competitors will be back loaded for bear.

SO we thought we would go there loaded for Elephant! 756.88 rwhp 802.93 rwtq

We still have some work to do but we thought we would share our results so far. We plan full race gas for the hill climb in June.

Mods are:

LG Super Pro 1 7/8" headers With Merge collectors.
LG - G6XT cam designed for Forced Induction

CnC'd LS9 Heads to our exclusive LG specs
Upper and Lower pulleys
Stock mufflers with "Man ****"
Overdrive crank pulley
Smaller upper pulley
Enlarged Blower snout
Cold air induction
LG LS9 Custom Flywheel
Tilton 7.25” carbon clutch
Larger heat exchanger

This was run on 100 unleaded gas. We will get back to you when we are finished with the race gas tune.

We have another ZR1 that we have to finish an E85 Tune on first then we will post the final numbers on both cars.

Oh year, it is my daily driver

Thanks

Lou Gigliotti

We plan on the Texas Mile with it in the fall.

Yes, that picture is some great photography for sure.

It always amazes me the progress that we all have made with the LSx engine. We would brag about cracking over 400 rwhp with the ls 1, then we hit the 425 threshold and in the beginning, people questioned our dyno.

Now, these engines are hitting over 750 rwhp on a super charger and over 1000 with a pair of turbos.

Is this some awesome stuff or what!

Thanks

forgeline EV1 wheels. They don't make that exact wheel anymore, but there are new wheels which are very similar.

Give us a call if you want to get a set

Lou, I too look forward to seeing you again at the Mile. I will be at the fall event.

I very much enjoyed meeting you and speaking with you at the Mile before. I found you to be a genuine class act, a big time racer that was happy to talk with just another "car guy".

Good luck, buddy, and be safe.

Those are ForgeLine EV1, one piece forged wheels. As of this time, they are currently disscontinued that style of wheel. Might be back at a later date.

The car is getting ForgeLine's new GA3R wheel for this year's event!
