Do you have any idea how a 1500+ HP LT/LS TT engine runs on the street? Or driving a power glide with a loose converter around town? Or a full cage complete with door bars and helmet hoop? Your maintenance costs are going to be out of control as well. I just don't think you're grasping the drama of the situation. If 200 MPH 1/2 mile runs and 7 second ET's are your goal, start with a different base car. You're going to rip out, upgrade, and change nearly everything that makes a ZL1 a ZL1 anyways.


Plus, like I said, if you truly have unlimited funds, get a UGR TT Lamborghini Huracan or Alpha GTR.

The car will not be a daily driver it will be seasonal and only on nice days like 3 tom6 times a month. And I'm choosing a camaro because its my ultimate dream car always has been always will be. I've owned them in the past amd I'll more in the future. The cost for this build is going to be between 50k minimum to a maximum of 100k which I already know and am well prepared for. Running 7s would be icing on the cake. I said any where from high 7s to low low 8s consistantly. If I can do this say run 8.2x all day long I've met my goal. If I do this and hit 7.9 it'll be that much better. No i dont have unlimited funds. I have a budget which I've already accounted and know for a fact I can meet my goal with the budget I have. Which is why I said money isnt not an issue.
