Update: Need I say more!

2023_ZL1-AUTO · 11-10-2025, 04:37 PM

Update: Two additional items order today. The RPM ROLLBARS 6 point roll cage (Lollipop Red), chrome molly total weight is only around 46lbs installed, and the SPA Fire Suppression system from Garage Built Racing. A bit customized to my needs which is nice, has manual activation and automatic activation, and uses the same chemical NHRA Safety Safari uses.

What HP will you be at to the wheels after this version of the build?

2023_ZL1-AUTO · 11-11-2025, 06:43 AM

So, the target is / hoping 950whp, maybe an outside chance a tad more! Again as stated above, I'm making the safety mods, for exactly that, my safety (sure with a slight vanity undertone too), and not to comply to any NHRA or IHRA rule.

2023_ZL1-AUTO · 11-11-2025, 01:36 PM

Update: Mike from Katech texted me this morning. Informed me that 10 of my valve seats should be / need replaced. They are measure from .0035 to .0040 and tolerance is .0030. So the domino effect is in full force!

Update: This is the powder coating color I selected, lollipop:

Update: Dalton at Motion Raceworks https://motionraceworks.com/ set me up with a full parachute kit for my ZL1 ! He even went as far as reviewing with me what I'll need to do for my installation due to the fact that I'll have a 16.25" drag wing mounted too! He took the time to ask me about my car, my setup. Then together we figured out the best kit options for my situation! That's awesome, because many vendors don't do that. The price as right and free shipping!

We should really just put a 2650 on this thing while we're this far into it

2023_ZL1-AUTO · 11-12-2025, 01:21 PM

Update: Just added to the build, a Magnuson 2650 (TVS2650R) and a Katech 112MM Throttle body and a few other misc items... It's a done deal ! Oh boy

That car will be absolutely brutal

Truly a race car with no traction on DOT tires at legal speeds to speak of

This build really snowballed into a killer setup! So pumped for you! Love this thread!
