2006 Corvette

[asshanson]

I have a 427 LS3 which is same displacement as an LS7 but generally makes more torque and less top end. With headers and intake stuff plus tune you can get high 400s on pump gas, with a decent cam and heads it's pretty easy to hit 550 with them and still be streetable. With a huge cam people are hitting 600rwhp, but it sucks to drive on the street at low throttle. Just ask Goodhart or Tachyon about my car's manners in Ashland, not really fun (and my cam isn't that big).

Edit: That z06 has a nice intake already, OBX headers will run $700 (others are over 1500). Cam and heads will probably run $4k or so installed. But for $4k you can buy a supercharger... hahaha. I was actually going to buy some nice heads but for $3k installed, it was only an extra grand to buy the supercharger and I could install that myself. I was too afraid to install heads myself because I know nothing about pushrods. I probably would have been in the 560-570 range with E85 and CNC'd heads.
