    Joe,
    What do you run for powertrain in that? I had a client in AZ that had a replica built with a 427 Roush, new fuel injected...one of the scariest cars i've ever been in...I think it was scarier because I wedged my fat ass in there with my knees at the windshield...

    btw...your car is beautiful.

    Agreed! Those Corvettes handle extremely well from what I've seen. Haven't had the opportunity to drive one at speed, but it does look good!

    I miss my 68 ChevyII Nova.

    Anybody ever see the 1st Gen 525 Alky burning Camaro vs Honda Civic video that was going around a couple years back? It was freakin awesome, the Civic pulls up and revs it, the cat in the Camaro looks over and laughs. He just plays it cool, the Honda starts to get on it and you hear WAAAAAAAAA and the Camaro is gone...............I mean he is easily an 1/8th mi in front of the Honda isn't even out of second gear!
    Awesome

    Thanks for thew compliments guys...
    she has a stroked 351W (to 408)....trans is a tremec 3650

    At sea level it was 450hp-425ft lbs of torque. I had 4.10 gears in her, but highway driving sucked, I put 3.08s in, it's not a quick, but it's a lot more enjoyable to drive

    Not really, I used to work them in my last S4. ZO6's were some of my favorite to auto x with, they'd be so frustrated that a 4 door on street tires was spanking them. 400 whp going to all four corners made it fun to play with them in a straight line too.

    I'm a huge fan of Audi's. I'd love to pick up an S8, but they're a tad pricey.
