Who is StreetSpeed717? One of the most successful automotive bloggers out there right now and also a friend of mine. With 550k+ followers and growing by 1k+ daily, Mike, aka StreetSpeed717 has had great success using Katech CNC ported cylinder heads:

Well, I (Harding Motorsports, not Katech) bought Mike's original C7 Z06 because he has since moved on to a 2017 Z06 that he is already modding (more on that later). See the whole video on the purchase here:


The 2016 is now at Katech and we are in the process of going through the whole car and bringing it up to Katech's Stage 3 spec. Please subscribe to Katech's Youtube channel for updates on the process.

I watched the video the other day of him selling the car to you, good stuff. Good luck with the build, and make sure to fix the doors so they shut. Lol

KnightDriveTV

Definitely nothing legendary about him or his car.

olblue75

Are you going to set it up for drag racing or road course or a good all around combo car?

keagan

Saw the video as well. I watch his vlogs all the time. I was surprised to see you Jason. I think you mentioned it will be around the 800rwhp Range?

I also follow Mike on his YouTube channel. Cool guy from his videos.

Katech_Zach

Street car. That will have the largest market.

~800hp at the crank

ScGRaceR

just take the silly doors off . good luck great colab here, should be some great press for you guys !

Be a shame if you were to dyno the car in its current state ... I mean Weapon X was hanging off his nuts too on social media, yet no numbers were ever posted until he got it back on the Fred Flintstone dyno ... Then Mike was critical of the install and made his tuner look like he squeezed out 50+whp off tune alone LOL.
Good luck with the car, should have got it for a steal!

I think DFR is kind of a hack shop. Good luck getting the car back in good shape.

Legendary douchebag.....

spinkick

I bet hes more humble in person. On Youtube you have to be a nut or nobody pays attention. I had no idea he was from Michigan

MerakiAutoworks

Follow him on Youtube.

So you said the car is Harding Motorsports but not Katechs? So its your personal car that you're building at Katech?

Glad to see I'm not the only person that things that dude is an asshat. It is not like he is breaking out any hot news in his blogs. Takes crap thats a couple of days old and talks about it. Plus the dude can't drive for **** especially that time he took it to the drag strip last year.

Katech_Zach

He's a cool guy. He's from PA, not Michigan.

Harding Motorsports is my used car business. It's paying Katech to do the work. Katech gets marketing benefit. Win - win.

Asshat, douche or dumbass, the kid does ok for himself. I have never been able to watch an entire youtube video of his without forwarding thru some of the jibber jabber, but he's a nice guy. Met him at Carlisle.
Good luck Jason. Hope to see it tearing up Woodward next summer.

I would love to have his monthly YouTube ad revenue. It's an insane number.

I thought he said $18-$24K per month? Nice chunk of change for YouTube personality.

Katech_Zach

That was when he had ~300k subscribers. Now he has 560k. Do the math.
