Default '99 FRC Corvette 6SPD (FIRST VETTE)


Hello CF people,

I'm very new to this forum and definitely new to V8's. I just sold My '95 Supra Turbo 500hp and picked up a '99 FRC Corvette 6SPD. I must say it's a completely different animal than what Im use to. As I come from 5-6 years of just owning Supra's.

My goal with the Vette is to make a 10 sec pass all motor, goal for summer is to decide if I want to go Supercharged or Turbo. Most obviously just go with a 100-150 shot with my current mods and call it a day.

Here are a few pictures and my current modifications.


Modifications just purchased:
CCW Classic drag package
HP Tuners Pro software
AFX o2 Wideband

Future Plans:
Turbo Setup or Supercharger or Nitrous

Engine
233/239 .598/.603 114 cam
Tsp hardened 7.400 pushrods
LS7 lifters
Ls6 valley cover
PRC stage 2.5 5.3l heads
PRC .660 lift dual springs w/ titanium retainers
Ported F.A.S.T. 92 Intake manifold
Ported ls2 throttlebody
LG Pro Longtube headers
LG X pipe
Corsa Touring Catback
ls6 timing chain

Fuel
42# Ford injectors
2002 fuel rails

Drivetrain
Mcleod RST twin disk clutch

Welcome and Congrats on getting into an amazing looking black FRC! (I may be biased since I own one also lol). Supra are awesome cars and like you said they are completely different beasts. You'll have a lot of fun in the Vette. Great info on this site for sure. Good luck man!

So far I have learned alot on this site. I definitely can see myself owning a Corvette for awhile. Love the down low power.
