Default Some recent C7 builds

For those of you who don't follow our social media here are some recent builds we wrapped up and some results from them.

Franks C7Z received our 427, F1x, CPR Air to water package. This is with the A8 trans, built diff, 15'' conversion, port injection, and all the associated parts. He opted to get a full 8.5 cage installed and a set of tillet seats as well to ensure safety while racing. This combo made just over 1300 rwhp iced down. With it's first outing at street car takeover it ran a 9.02 @ 159 non iced. We ran into an issue where it would launch than knock the tires off. If you zoom in on the pic you'll see the water come out of the rocker panel as he washed it the night before and put it in the trailer. so word to the wise. don't do that haha! here is the dyno video as well


Next is another one of our OEM blower max effort combos. This setup drives 100% like a stock car, has gone 9.4 @ 145-6 in good air, and went 179/80 at the last half mile here in az which was from a dig cone to cone. It includes the following from us.
CPR spec cam, ported oem heads to our spec, cpr 5'' cai, cpr heat exchanger, cpr ice/expansion tank, meth kit, cpr low side, upper/lower pulley, 2'' headers, flex kit, kong cnc ported blower, 103 tb, cpr billet dod delete plate, johnson lifters, etc.

Next is the LT5 blower base stingray we finished up. it received a built motor, 2'' headers, lt5 blower that was ported, holley dominator to control it, fore fuel system, monster clutch, ported heads, cpr 5'' cai, cpr heat exchanger, cpr stewart emp pump kit, cpr trunk ice tank, meth kit, flex, etc. This combo made right at 1100 rwhp.

Last one is another one of our 427, f1x, cpr air to water, a8 builds we wrapped up. This one has all the same goodies as the black one above but a little stronger parts to handle the 150 shot as well that is on the car. This car will be running very soon at a track event out of state as he does not live in AZ. Not posting this one's numbers per his request.
