I don't think Matt would let a garbage truck within 100 yards of one of those cars! Dump truck, maybe. J/K

Dave, I'm not a fan of the hockey sticks. Matt did say that many of the 427s are getting them. Mine will leave there with the LS6. Lamar Walden is going to install the C5R 427 and other goodies.

That is a great pic, the car aint bad either. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

I guess right now that this is the only ZL1 with a 427 that hasn't had a speciality paint job on it. I have seen other pics of this one before.

Hey Belk how that Z drive. Any traction problems? [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

ZL1O2IL What color did you go with? I wouldn't be surprised about you the only one to pick one up at the dealer. According to the dealer that I bought mine, none of the painted cars were going to make it to the dealer.
Is your going to be a garage queen or ashaplt mean?

I never did get to drive it. Matt brought it to vette-fest along with charleys, and barnharts. Porterfields was there as well. I just got to wipe it down! That was the extent of it! Matt took it back to GA. to finish it for the New Years eve deal at Gibb's. By then I had acquired Holubs #2 car, and the new owner had acquired the silver car to take delivery in LaHarpe. So, I have yet to experience the 600hp! On March 2nd I will!

Traction problems? Me and a friend met Matt at GMMG one night, seems like it was last Feb or March. Matt wanted to drive my 02 1LE SS so I ended up test driving a stage II LS6 car. First and second gear in that car were virtually useless! I'm sure the cool night had something to do with it but that car was a monster! In fact my buddy, who drives a modded 02 Z06 turned down the offer of a test drive after riding with me. I can't imagine what the 427 is going to feel like.

You guys had better pray for traction problems, because if you ever hook even PART of those 600 ponies then BAD THINGS are gonna happen. You'd be darn lucky to only need a clutch, but I'd put money on the rear letting go first! [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/ooo.gif[/img]

Mine's getting a new rear end and clutch when the 427 is installed.
