there are videos there to.
and yes that is a 1100hp C6

good gawd, thats a bad car...if you click on "Video Clips" or something like that and click on the first video of the blue vette, thats some pretty good shifting. workin that clutch

btw...I recall seeing a FWD LS1 Impala in a magazine. Corvette fuel rail covers and all. I though its was amazing that it works, but I dont see how this is either cool or advantageous in any way vs a V6 or turbo 4 cyl FWD. the V8 is just too much torque on street tires.

There are a few 03/04 Cobra owners that are pushing 800+ RWHP with their "tiny" 4.6, Heck the valve cover's have'nt even been off on some.

It was WAY cheaper to boot!

Not for long they won't be...

Too bad it's a gigantic pig of a motor too.

nice knowing that some 70-year-old millionaire is going to be tearing around your suburb in a 938 rwhp corvette...(future candidate for that 'wrecked exotics' website)
