Sorry but this is a pipe dream. No way this car will run 7s, do 200mph in the mile, and be a street car. Maybe your just not familiar with what something like that takes? Maybe all those in the high 8s but no way in the 7s

That’s what l’m thinking too Marko!! Now maybe if he built a Pro Mod then yes but something to drive on the street probably no!

Vengeance Racing did my Z/28 with a stg 5 with almost 700hp, they get my vote.

With a realistic goal of running 9s, doing 1/2-1mile races, and driving on the street then for sure vengeance or CSP (bc they built a TT ZL1 that goes 8s, and it’s a real street car with no cage, has AC, and all the good stuff the car comes with, except heated steering wheel I think. Lol

Yep. This is a TL;DR of my post.

Side note: I looked into the OP's history...I'm not calling troll (yet) but let's just say he's asked this question before for an SS about a year ago I think it was. Never seems to reply either. Could be a youngster compiling his favorite Youtuber's cars into one. Not sure.

Thanks for ur input much apreciated. For those saying that this isnt realistic, Im trying to figure why u guys think that. My question wasnt is this possible my question was what would be the best shop to take on the task to meet my goals. It's very doable that I know and I'm quite aware of. After doing thorough research vengence racing became a main contender and wanted to see the general public agreed or if their was a better alternative.

I guess your definition of "very doable" is much different than the rest of ours then. Because it will take 1700+ RWHP to make a ZL1 do 200 MPH in the half, plus a 15" slick, parachute, full cage, power-glide trans, and countless other supporting mods. 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.

I also know what this will require. I already had 1500whp to 2000whp in mind before hand.

I can't wait to see your build. Having a car capable and running the number are two different things. You will be the 1st in that territory on this platform, so I would double your budget to account for breakage, maint and tuning changes etc. Are you going to ship the car back to Vengeance for maint after each race event? Lots of things to account for, please do a thread so we can keep up.

….general public agreed or if their was a better alternative.[/QUOTE]

There, their, they're, There's a difference! It's perplexed me from day one on this forum how so many folks who have or contend to have big $$$ have such embarrassingly poor grammar. Mine's not perfect, I know, but "there car...", "their was...". Come on people, learn the basics. You have no idea how ignorant this makes you look.

Shipping it back would depend on the extent of the damage if any is done and rather or not it can be fixed here locally or not. But to answer ur question yes if I needed to. Car wont necessarily be raced everytime I take it out but it will be raced.
