The viper has how much more displacement? Costs how much more? And the corvette is almost half a second faster?

yea but the viper looks better than any car under 200,000 so you cant dog it.

77 more ci
they have same hp, but viper has 50 more lb-ft and gets it 600rpms faster [img]tongue.gif[/img]

It's not that big of a deal to swap an A4 tranny under a Z06...as well as a solid axle setup for those 6000rpm launches on the back wheels past 60'.

Good info..... although it is a 427 CI engine to my knowledge....

['94firebirdv6]

i agree that IS a good issue

the LS7 is called a 427 however its actually displacement is around 428ci

The old 427s were in the 430 or 440 range [img]smile.gif[/img]
That is why GM came out with the 428 later, something to do with racing and needing the right motor size... can't remember exactly.

thats ****ing insane for a production car, just imagine it with full exhaust, better intake and a good driver. mmmm 10's on a daily driver with a warranty. then imagine it with something crazy like a blower, mmmm 8's

You can send your current vette to Lingenfelter and get the full $49,995 performance package. It is 720 hp twin turbo, 10 second car (10.39 on street tires if I remember correctly), and the kicker is it comes with a 2 yr/24,000 mile warranty.

i saw this one show where they took a lingenfelter vette (150k) and raced it against a blue angel jet, and it won. it was on some show but i got the video from kazaa. it was a 8 second car and looked stock
