They are painted at GMMG. When we were at the unveiling there were two other Harrell cars waiting to get sprayed in their paint booth. Dan https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif

The body work and prep is done at GMMG and then taken to a place nearby with a state of the art paint booth.
I didnt hear of any Harrell guys driving the car on the tour but that would not suprise me.
I am not sure how the engines differ from the ZL1 phase 3 to these. As normal though. time brings more technology and that brings more power, I wanted to tune up the heads a bit on Valeries but Matt doesnt want me too. Guess us west coast guys dont know nuff about that.

Lets put it this way. We know that flow doesnt always make it go.
My guy did a set of heads for a top team last year that was down 50cfm on flow that made 50ft lbs of torque and 35 HP more than the leading heads they had We also know the difference between streetable power and having to be over 6000 rpm to make it run.
I thought you were on the road. Val and i wanted to talk with you. DP

Sorry, it was just a rumor that I had heard about. Now have gotten word that the car will be trailered to each event. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

Matt I am sure would, if he could find the time to sit down for 30 minutes. He has already shared plenty where it counts. The magazine articles will be great reading when they are published.

Matt Murphy is unbelieveably busy right now. I don't know how he does it. I'm sure if and when he has the time he will reply.

ken, they'll be hammering it at the St.Louis dragway, outta be a sight to see. they'll trailer them due to time restraints between the showings, haven't enough time to repaint, and don't want to take chance of accidents like happened last year w/ the berger car.
