Building up the C7
Dropped off car this am in houston at LMR! ECS BLOWER going on with AR Headers and a methanol kit! 
It's a z51 auto and came in at 401/402 baseline on 91 octane gas. Should be ready for weekend! Thanks for the tour Steven, Reid and Ron! Great staff down to earth and friendly! I am excited to see the finished product!

that will be a beast
I am thinking the same with the cam and maybe heads but I will run the way it is to see if 550-600rwhp is enough.

Trust me, it really is. But once you have it... you want more... And more... 
You'll need to roll into it slowly on the stock tires, as this is going to feel a lot different than it did before. Nothing like chirping 4th.

I am looking into tires and rims already. I may run once on stock tires just for kicks. I chose meth for safety. It's hot out here and high altitude. What type of cam you thinking of running?
