Some great folks

I was there!!! :cheers: I drove my black 79 back then, lot's of fun!

ZR-1 around here is now, with the new taxation system just over 320K euros, that is around 440K in USD... So Tuomas might still be better of with the normal C6 as a starting point + the power ZR-1's are making (stock) just wouldn't cut it with this gentleman. He really likes his toys to perform. :cheers::cheers:

There are 3 ZR-1 here that I know of, one yellow with 820hp kit, one Blade Silver bone stock and one Black with some Lingenfelter goodies.

:banghead: It's just not fair ... but good for you. What about my needs ... :nonod:

A little update..

With A&A kit have to remove the OEM power steering cooler and at first I made it shorter but after mod it was too small so I made a version stage 2.
I'm still not complete satisfied (welding skill rusted) but I think I can live with that..

Awesome!!! Good luck with the rest of the build, can't wait to see the finished product.

looks great!

i couldn't imaging doing something like this all at once....i mean the huge investment made at one time.....over a period of time is how most people seem to mod, looks like you're going at it differently!

Wow!

I remember that vette! I was the last guy in the states to mod on that vette before Ville shipped it overseas. I see it has been transforming quite a bit now.

Keep up the good work.

Still same setup, except the YSi added :D

Next spring, we'll need to keep a serious conversation about a new stroked 6-bolt short block and heads plus intake.. ;)

Sounds good to me. I love helping make vettes fast all over the world. :rock:
