Default Pulled the trigger...

Just dropped off my Z at Charlie@RPM. I've been in many fast cars to date but the recently posted UBNZ06D's Z06 was something special. Last week, UBNZ06D was kind enough to give me a full blast in his 580+whp Z. The car wasn't just stupid fast, but it drove very nice around the town with zero bucking. All I can say is Charlie@RPM did a great job and he does seem to have magic with the Z. I want to thank UBNZ06D for an opportunity to feel the fastest car I've ever been in. Greg, I really love your Z and I hope I get the similar power as yours. The car to be ready in sometime next week and I will post the dyno# with the youtube vid.

Yes, heads/cam/header/intake... they say it's a 'full tilt' package
The clutch and brakes will be done in later this year. I'm going with the Exedy twin plate clutch set up and Stoptech BBK.
