I bought a C6 Corvette Z06! 2007 Z06 Track Car Project 

Geoff Christian thank you! What a small world!

Thank you!

youngestson 65 thank you!

Wow WTF that is a STEAL!

Even a better still now in 2021,the zo6 c6 is going for mid 35k,to 45k!

I think that’s fake

YELLOW08Z06 nice content checked out ur channel

Brian Samuels yeah I actually mention that towards the end of the video. Going to send the heads down to Texas Speed during the winter and get the works done on them. Also going to do a cam and likely a centrifugal supercharger as well.

@@TaylorSmithAutomotiveChannel yeah, after those mods you'll most definitely be flying bro! 👍👍 keep those videos coming...take care

Brian Samuels thanks brother!

@@TaylorSmithAutomotiveChannel ls7 have thin walls , not the best for boost keep it under 6 lbs

@@TaylorSmithAutomotiveChannel stock block is a no go for boost. Gona need to be resleeved

andrew paul that sounds like a good car! The TR6060 would have been nice to have, but I couldn't pass this car up. I had a TR6060 in my old Hellcat and had issues overheating it. Reverse started to grind after one track event. Probably just a Mopar specific issue with cooling. Florida definitely has some nice tracks!

David Fischer thank you! I will check out your videos! Definitely excited to start working on the car.

My 1st mode would be getting rid of those horrible headlights and installing a set of Morimoto’s

Those ricer headlight lmao oem lights are so much better

Will do!

William Heinsinger, exactly bro!

Yep that's about right. I stayed N/A too and am running about 550rwhp and it's plenty for the street! Have to roll into it in 1st and 2nd...

Are you guys running 93 octane or E85

@@FaaizAliTV 93, unported MSD, BTR-4.

I run both. I can’t really notice much of a difference.

@@whatsupwithsteve Spin tires or spin tires lol

I have bought cars from shady dudes like I am not sure if the car is stolen or what that turned out to be reliable and with 0 problems. Then again mint dealer car turned out to be factory lemon.

Never buy dealer. Fucking rip

Thomas Shuman how do you like the ECS 1500? I am looking at those and the a&a kit. Sounds like a nice setup on your car!

I was at the very same crossroad. Intake air temps aren’t amazing with ether kit after a few pulls I think. I’m in Seattle if you want to go for a pull.

Thomas Shuman thanks for the offer! If I'm ever back out in the area I'll look you up. I live in Coeur d' Alene, ID. Meth seems like a must especially on pump gas.

Taylor Smith The reason I went with ECS is the head unit. It’s supposed to support up to 900+ whp. In fact I’m about ready to buy or rebuild now as I think I have a cracked piston (maybe ring land or crown). I’ve definitely got a dead hole but it doesn’t seem to care at high rpm, I’m guessing because of the piston speed and boost overcoming the compression leak enough. Anyway a rebuild has always been the plan. Those hypereutectic pistons don’t play with shitty gas. If I where you I’d have your tuner be pretty conservative with timing around peak torque. I also don’t like the Bosch injectors that came with the ECS kit. Several have failed. That alone could have been the end of that motor. ECS also doesn’t use HP tuners so the can’t look at your tune without your ECU. I’d get an A&A kit if I did it again. Also never go to Carburetor Connection in Kirkland. The owner is a piece of shit. I have stories from myself and others. Good luck!

They are when it is cold and they are old.

Just come to Michigan. There's tons of ppl here that specialize in the metro detroit area

Engine is on the stand now for a lot of aftermarket speed parts. More videos on my channel of this car.

Denis Santini did you even watch the whole video? He said he’s doing them lol

@@MrLsmiles Yes I did, just reminding him.🤘

Absolutely! I will be filming the entire process and uploading the progress and information for everything.

I'm sure your 4th gen Is more impressive huh

@@Airsoftbros888 Not really, my 4th gen only runs mid 9s @ 140.

@@Charlesbjtown lol and how does it do around a track?

Or on the street?

@@Charlesbjtown and lastly how does it look? Butt ugly lol

Greg Williams I believe it was. He had some cool cars in there

@@TaylorSmithAutomotiveChannel nice, That's ZO6 is a real beauty as well. Congrats

It's like you didn't even watch the video

Mikey Smith it was on the Seattle, WA Craigslist for about a week

IN BALANCE it was! Clearance was no issue.

Wrong

@@metaljew4456 Oh wait not only does it look like C5, IT IS C5 underneath. Same leaf springs all the way up to C7 :DDD

Thank you for the info! I have heard the MAMO ported intake manifolds are great too. I'm on the fence about heads, cam and blower or just keeping it NA with a nice heads+cam package. Do you ever wish you had more power since your car as finished?

Call Tony and talk to him about his heads and cam setup you don't need a supercharger and I don't wish I had more power the big problem is traction no matter what you get for tires you'll still have issues hooking up I think 600 wheel is the perfect number for these cars they're light so they don't need big numbers and with a smaller cam Antonis heads you'll have less revision it will run a lot better and you will enjoy driving it if you go to big they become an animal real quick and are not enjoyable the drive daily also budget for a ZR1 clutch they're awesome if I had it to do all over again I would actually go with a little smaller cam definitely no supercharger it's not needed to get the Peak Performance that you need to actually keep this on the road

Gary Richardson yes sir I actually mention that later in the video. It will be getting quite a few upgrades in the next couple months

@@TaylorSmithAutomotiveChannel good to hear I wasn't that fortunate. Had to replace the motor.$13,000. GM was nowhere in sight. Love them but will never buy another Corvette

Gary Richardson that is painful! I'm sorry to hear that. I would be sick. I am fairly surprised a recall never issued. It seems like a fairly common occurrence on these.

@@TaylorSmithAutomotiveChannel yes common but when it's right. It's fast as hell. Best motor GM ever made. Go on your and look up ride-or-die. Races Corvette. That's me in the. I'm not going to tell you what happened. Look that up

My talk text is not working very. And that's ride-or-die hellcat racing Corvette look up

OverBudgetGarage yep north idaho
