Sounds good. What cam is that? Sounds like a Black Mamba or something like a gt-19 cam

No worries.

What pulley set up did you go with?

Its a 2.3x/10% setup. IMO the car needs meth ASAP

Does the 2.3 need machining on the Z too? Did you not do full cooling mods? (HX, tank etc)

Yeah, we actually went above and beyond on that one. Built a 1+ gallon blower expansion reservoir, upgraded Katech HX. The factory pump on a ZR1 is boss, it moves more water then my upgraded pump on my V did.

No with the Z's you just order the LPE snout, with a quick change upper pulley

Oh very nice! That will be nice for those long pulls.

I've been reading about the HX and pumps. There seems to be a lot of conflicting information on performance of different exchangers. I chose the Katech as well, though some people seem to think it blocks too much of the radiator for driving in traffic but its really good for racing.

Why? producing too much heat?

On the V's 1.9 blower that's really close to max blower speed. I'm not sure about the max speed on the Z's 2.3 blower, but typically yes..LOTS of heat.

I think its going to yes. But we can work around that issue.

Great look/sounding zr1. Nice to see one without stock wheels too.
Daily?

daily duty gets split between several cars for me. My cummins truck, 37 ford and this will all get driven a lot. As well as the CTS-V

downtime!

Well, you've never been one to half ass anything, and the Vette just furthers that reputation. Damn nice car man!

About time to finally change your sig man. "All my cars are faster than your race car" would be more fitting.

Nice rear brakes. Glad they fit.
