Might be able to find a kit for that price without a warranty around the time the C10 Corvette is out 😂😭

Read the article. Looks like the Ford team, has a completely different objective than GM.

That's impressive to get that level of factory support and for them to aim for such a high mark. Even if the kit only added 150 HP, $10k for a factory kit would be a slam dunk.

If its $10k installed that's awesome. Doubt it though. Still pretty cheap relative to our C8 prices. Especially with warranty. I'd imagine even 100 horsepower at that price point for the C8 it'd have a high take rate, especially on the ERay

Don't believe everything they say about the warranty coverage of that kit. I had a buddy do one of those on a brand new Mustang a few years ago, and then when the engine let go shortly after, it was a major pain in the *** to get them to cover it.

It's just an advertising attraction for the Mustang guys. Much more to that for what is advertised. GM is not that desperate.

It’s a case of mustang vendors understand the concept of making money through quantity vs the obvious greed of vette tax crowd.
