This NASTY 700 HP C6 Corvette Z06 Is The Best Way To Troll a C8
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Enter the C6 Z06! What you're looking at is the last naturally aspirated Corvette Z06 with a 6-speed manual. The man who helped deafen my ear drums during this video is Graham, and with his help today we're going to try and give you a solid case to enjoy your LS7 as the naturally aspirated gem it was built to be from the factory. Enjoy.

I’d argue C7 is close if you only care about performance wise, the LT4 motor can handle more power than any LS9/LS7/LS3. LT4s have made 1300+ WHP on stock bottom end and now run 6.9 second 1/4 miles on a OEM block, I believe sleeved. You need an LSX to do such thing lmao.

@aimxdy8680 good luck keeping your engine clean with 1300whp on a stock LT4. Must have to top off coolant every pass. Lol. You do know the block castings are no different in strength between any of the LS and LT series. All sleeves were cast iron. A 1300whp street vette of any L series engine should have ductile iron sleeves a billet crank and billet girdle for longevity at that power level.

JIANGGAI Car Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Fit For Chevy Corvette C6 2006-2011 Z06 ZR1 Ergonomic Hand Grip Perfoated Leather. I ordered this wheel from Amazon and it's a definite driver mod that I'm over the moon about. It makes my C6 Z feel more under my control whether driving 10mph or a lot more. Nice ride!!
In my humble opinion, The C6 ZR1, C6 ZO6 and C7 ZR1 are the best three Corvettes in the modern era. In that order. That pushrod LS7 427 motor and the LS9/LT5 6.2L supercharged V8 with a cross-plane crankshaft. Exhilarating low-end torque, unbelievable power, and lightning quick acceleration are just some of the amazing feats in these cars. Ford has absolutely nothing on these beasts.
