ECS Powered

On Friday I picked up my C6 from ECS. They installed a new forged Ls3 engine along with a big blower cam, stage 1 fuel system, Mantic 9000 series twin clutch kit. The car is a real monster with 828.4 RWHP and 717.9 ft lbs of torque. ECS has worked on my car several times in the past and the results are always the same. The have excellent mechanics along with excellent service. Many thanks to Chris, Doug and the rest of the ECS team. 😃👍

Did you buy a built short block or did ECS build your original short block with forged?

Engine

The block is a built short block. The valves in the heads were replaced with SS. I am using the Big Blower cam, and the fuel system was upgraded (stage 1) All work was done by ECS, maybe Doug or Chris will chime in.
