not really a fair race...lol 450-what looks way more like 500rwhp ls1 vs a 440rwhp mail tune cobra.....outcome was a real surprise...lol vette sounded good though
@MrLs7killer Corvette's will beat the cobra's with quite a bit of less horse power ,for obvious reason's. I have seen them have up to 85 more at the tire and still get pulled at about 110. You must have a beast of a car to kill ls7 ,Late model race crafts has 1800 horse options , f2 procharger kits. There 1300 option does 9's. The lsx 427 which is a stronger ls7, ment for boosting can get over 2000 at the crank ,nelson racing has one in a 69 camaro. Also a 1800rwhp in a Mosler MT900.
You are right a cobra i a big deal if pullied and tuned right with a Big mammoth KB or Whipple they r no joke. The only problem is that they tend to lean out on the last cylinders always and most of time blow.........when unexpected.
I like mustangs but id rather take a vette. The only reason is because mustangs are very heavy and thats why most of the time vettes end up beating mustangs.
fords supercharged top of the line cobra VS. Chevy's N/A base model corvette, that wasn't even a race that vette could have pulled a spark plug, ran on 7 cylinders and still smoked that ugly ass, heavy ass shitstang. LOL I used to have a 99 cobra, now i have a 01 C5 vette, trust me there's no comparison between cobra's and vettes NONE. hell my 95 Z28 camaro even stomped every cobra i raced...ford has ALWAYS had the way slower car ever since 93 when the Lt1 came out, mustangs suck cock
treyofour, can you read? The vette had heads and a cam. That car could be making over 600 HP. I ran stock vette 2003 vette at ROckingham and put a Greyhound on his ass. I ran a 11.50 to his 12.80. He parked by me. They had a bike race that weekend. I had 20-30 people around my 03 the whole night. I never seen anyone give the vette anything more than a whiff. Afterall, everybody and his brother has one.
LOL 600 hp from heads/cam dude your fucking dillusional... not even a C6 with heads/cam will make 600rwhp, your a dumb shit....you know nothing about LSx cars obviously....hell a procharged vette here in town doesn't even put 600 to the wheels keep dreamin buddy. And where the fuck does it say this vette had heads, and cam?? Get the fuck outa here you noob you got no clue what ur talking about
a lot of people drive the 6 cylinder, but like any v8 american car, with enough mods and a great look like 90% of the 03-04 cobras i see, they become immediate head turners, btw the C5 there is making 430+ hp to the wheels, the cobra has about 400 bhp stock, also the vette is about 500-600lbs lighter than the cobra, id still go with the cobra, a much better feel of a car
the mustangs and actually, all of fords engines have by far the best engine note and exhaust note i have heard out of the modern engines, the corvette was never in the same category as the mustang, why cant you chevy loving retards ever get that through your heads? the mustang camaro and challenger were always competing, and even now, the 2010 mustang gt is literally a hair behind the camaro in its times with a 2L smaller engine making less power, seriously? you idiots need to stop bitching
an 06 C5? uh you dumbfuck c5's were from 97-04 LOL i love when people act like they know soo much about cars when really they watch youtube video's and have NEVER drove either kind of car, just shut the fuck up , you people have no idea how retarded you sound
lol you obviously didnt read his post clearly, hes making fun of the dumbass who said they have one, obviously sombody with a z06 knows what years his vettes were made in, relax for a second and read posts bud, then answer
and for the record just because you see "pullied cobra" doesnt mean its making 460 to 480 rwhp... there are combinations for the pulleys and different tunes... for instance i only have an idler pulley set up so i only make 443 rwhp. I'll have a KB set up soon but thats another story.
Yup your right. My neighbor has a shop. He works mostly on cobras lol and well thats what he daily drives with his wife and kids inside. an 04 cobra. He is pushing around 550RWHP on his with the stock blower.
Actually the mustang was made to compete against the corvette...that's why Ford made 'em. But really whether you're a Ford man or Chevy there's always gonna be someone faster so why argue a non winning point.
Mustang was not made to compete against vettes. Its a completely different league. The day ford makes a stang with as good suspension as a vette. With as good handling, fiberglass, and a strong motor that wont blow into pieces after 450rwhp without doing all the internals then the stang will cost a lot more than the vette lol.
@alex369 The gt is fare for Z28 and SS though the mustang was always slower and the cobra for the ZO6 you cant tell me that the cobra r with the 5.4 was made for the camaro and the 03-04 cobra aswell. with 4 cams and a twin screw wich both was still slower than the Z. cobras are nice and like them but chevy is better but like dablackfly said they can easly befaster than each other
@luvscience44 The 03-04 Cobra blower is a roots blower, not a twin screw. Twin screw superchargers are whipples, kenny belle, etc. MANY 03-04 Cobras make over 700whp with those setups. Trust me, cobras are no joke. I have a 99 Z28 Camaro so I am a Chevy guy too, but those 03-04 Cobras deserve some credit.
@alex369 exactly my friend!!!! this vid proves a NA motor with cam/heads will halftrack a modded supercharged termi. which is halarious.. i got a 01 C5 6 speed, full exhaust , DR's, and a 100 shot and i've ate every termi at the track or street, even off the juice , they are fast but jesus for a supercharged car (ford guys will argue a non supercharged cobra will run with a vette LOL) that is just terrible....
@alex369 They get to about 550 actually and we all should now ls engine's are not forged and have to high of compression. When you lower the compression forge the engine and boost it, say hello to 1000 horse power if were talking 7 liters say hello to 2000 horse power, 9.4l the 572 is just unnecessary. I know pc'd ls1and ls2 engines will get over 500 horses with 6-8 psi safe with a stock engine which is plenty of horse power unless you need more than rebuild it and fuck everything.
@alex369 Also an LS9 has forged steel crank, forged pistons with 9/5 to 1 compression built for boost it makes 532 on the dyno in the ZR1 Hennessy said after 1500 miles they gain 15-20 horse power so 550 horse power with the zr1 and i dont see it blowing anytime soon. Hennessy ports the heads ,swaps the cam, the upper and lower, puts faster injectors,u know the simple supercharged engine stuff and they make 648 on the dyno, a car capable of 205 without that. the ls9 is ready for more boost
it can, lsx engines are among the greatest and strongest. they have lots of potential. vettes dont need superchargers to keep up with the best, unlike your cobra which is no competition for any lsx.
the LSX, oh you mean the crate motor? lets see it go up against the best of fords crates, but honestly, looking at engine size and amount of power being put out, and considering how chevy and gm have been using the same block design since their conception in the muscle car era, fords way ahead of their game
there is not one modern ford engine that has the ls7 beat. Ford has always had to resort to forced induction to attempt to compete with lsx engines and they fail miserably every time. try throwing a s/c on an ls7 and the ls9 is born, there is no ford engine that has more power than the ls9. The 505 hp n/a ls7 is way out of fords league, as are most lsx engines. The only way ford can even touch 500 hp is with a s/c set up. it looks like ford is the one who needs some catching up to do.
there are plenty of ford crate motors that do 500hp+ and ford chooses smaller blocks and goes with forced induction because its cheaper, easier and you get the same results, now idk why everybody who loves american muscle feels the need to put down other domestics, hell, you dont see toyo lovers do that to honda lovers, they all share rice evenly, now i am a ford guy through and through but i love all american muscle regardless of make or model
i never said anything bad about ford motors until you provoked me to reveal the truth. you put down the lsx and chevy first, making false claims about how ford engines are better when that clearly isn't factual. so i hope you are applying your own comment to yourself as well, because you wouldn't have said what you did if you believed in being supposedly unbiased like the jap lovers.
indeed, it applies to everybody talking down about other american cars, me included, but you were putting down ford engines by calling them shit without forced induction when in reality ford makes some pretty kick ass engines, as do chevy and dodge
like i said, i wouldn't have insulted ford engines if you didn't insult the lsx and chevy first. your the one who came to me looking for an argument, so you got it. i'm just carrying on because i want you to understand the situation.
yeah, and i merely pointed out that there indeed are all engine crates from ford that make 500+hp without forced induction, that was the only point i was making, why ford doesnt put these engines in their production vehicles, well thats beyond my knowledge
This video clearly states that the cobras are pathetic. A bolt on cobra cant beat a heads cam c5 not even a z06 seriously! I think Ford needs to shoot themselves more then once. Sorry for such hatred but seriously Cobras are a joke.
How am i an idiot? This cobra has bolt ons should be atleast 440whp and it cant beat a heads cam corvette? Come on man think supercharged vs n/a. This cobra should destroy the vette but it doesnt. Look at Chevys ZR1 Corvette its supercharged and its 10 times faster then a cobra. I actually have 2 friends with corvettes. One is a 8 Sec 427 N/A Z06 and the other is a C5 with a MS4 Cam puttin down about 460whp. Cobras just arent even in the same league as corvettes.
sorry, idiot was a little over the edge. I have a 03 Cobra and there are different perks to both cars. For one, cobras are cheap to mod. A HCI vette isn't cheap to build. Mine makes about 500 rwhp on the street tune and runs 124 in the 1/4. I have put about 5K into my car as far as tuning, and mods. Yeah the ZR1 is faster (I could be faster with a KB or TT set up easy for 6K. The ZR1 is a 110+K dollar car, should it better be fast.
Your still missing the point. You can buy a c5 corvette for way less then a cobra. Put 5k into a corvette that you payed 12-13k which is what there going for these days and your still way behind the cost in a cobra. Point being also corvettes dont need a supercharger like cobras do. A cam for a corvette is not expensive at all and you could find used heads or port the stock ones. Sorry modded cobras will never compete with corvettes. Should have bought a corvette and not a cobra.
I see your point. Cobras and vettes were never made to compete. Yes there are faster cars. I have lost to only one vette....and it was a 07 ZO6 making more rwhp than I. I can live with that.
12 or 13 k?? with how many miles on it 70k or more?? i payed 18k for my cobra and it only had 22k miles and it was pullied lowered tinted and tuned... dont get me wrong both are awesome cars and i would love to have a vette but cobras are cheaper and always have been.
I have taken apart Stang motor Heads and Vette motor Heads. compare the heads of a vette with a stang. The ports are much bigger. vette heads gain more hp than a stangs heads simply because they flow 10 times better so they always make more hp.
Ok so even if its 460 at the wheels its not gonna pull on a modded cobra like that so i still call bs on the n/a. Either way they're both nice cars and i'd drive the shit outta either one of em
Yeah but the Vette weighs 600 or more lbs less. and it is alot more aerodynamic. Why do you think a Camaro and a Mustang with the sme hp can race and the Camaro pulls up top. and the Corvette is even more aero than the Camaro. A stock Vette with 350hp hits 175mph because of gearing. No Mustang can do that with the same power.
Not a chance in hell that vette is stock, that cobra with a pulley chip and exhaust is prob puttin out between 450-500 at the wheels.. I call major bs
Are you guys blind or something? It clearly says at the first the vette has a stock motor BUT with a heads/cam setup so no its not stock but it does have a stock bottom end. Its probably making anywhere between 390-460 depending on the heads and cam.
dude!! a c5 can own any cobra ford cannot make a fast car for shit like the new gt 500 my c5 is an 06 model and they cant touch me sorry but the cobras still remain not fast i had a firehawk trans am before i just got the c5 and shit my firehawk owned my c5 all day
bull shit a c5 can easily get owned by 2001 n/a cobra and a mach 1. stock c5 vettes are slow. And this vette aint stock. read ppl its got a head and cam swap
What the hell are you smoking kid. My daily driver is a freaking 04 Mach1 and when i had it stock i could not take a stock C5 heads were not swapped by the way just modified. You got to give the vette props. It beat the cobra all motor. with out a S/c
why r yal hatin on the vette? Vettes r king so get used to it. yea there r some badass cobras don't get me wrong but vettes r always have been and always will be the king
If you notice carefully you can see on the mirrors its the side of a cobra. And since when does a 96 gt come with bose speakers lol and that dash board.
The FRC owner should post the mods to the car. A stock LS1/6 motor w/numerous external bolt-ons & stock short block + 3.90's will run in the 11:20-90's at 114-120+MPH. Less weight & better Aerodynamics=MPH advantage.
umm...okay you TARDS must not know ANYTHING about the ls1.....did yall know heads and cams one a ls1 can be anywhere frmo 450to 570rwhp? idiots......it all depends on how radical his setup is. fyi the cobra would have to have 60rwhp more over the vette to stay even with it at speed
I call BS on that thing being a heads/cam only car. If it is true the cobra needs a tune or something. A cobra with the right tune should run mid to upper 11's all day if you can drive. So should the vette. Those cars should have been pretty close IMO.
There's no possible way he was spraying. He was hitting the rev limiter, and if you do that while spraying it'll detonate and blow the intake manifold apart.
My buddy's runnin 12.6's in his bone stock C5...and its a targa not an FRC...so its more than possible given the driver mod for an FRC with heads and a cam to pull that hard on the Cobra...
Those Cobra's are heavy. Once higher speed kicks in aero plays a huge factor. The Vette was walking down the street signing doo wadiddy diddy dum diddy doo! lol
I'm throwin a bullshit flag, but there's a few possibilities, either that cobra is stock, the vette has way more mods than what it says there, or the cobra was driven by some sort of handicapped child without a liscense cuz there's no way a vette would pull that hard on a pullied/tuned cobra. They're fast, but not that fast. I have a cobra, and I've driven c5's. Both nice cars, just not the full story.
My buddy bought a 99 FRC after owning an Cobra. It had a CAI,Exhaust,Pulley and tune. 120 MPH in the 1/4 on DR's. My Z06 had LT's, X-pipe, Zip-Tie mod. It went 117 MPH in the 1/4. No traction thru 2nd.I ran a Cobra with similar mods.I pulled 3 cars from 45-130 MPH. Cobras are fast if tuned right. The Hardtop in this video must be making 460HP or more. The owner should post the mods so we know. Both cars are a blast to own.
The 1999 and 2000 Hardtop Corvettes,which look like a Z06 at first glance were the foundation for the 2001 Z06(Which I own). The 99 and 2000 Hardtop Corvettes are between 110-135 LBS lighter,depending on wheels/tires than a Coupe model.
They are also know as FRC's or Fixed Roof Coupe even thought they Hardtop Models. These cars come with the Z51 suspension as standard equipment.
Oh yeah that vette was stock...Yeah right! I cant imagine gm selling a vette that is that loud straight from the factory. Both cars are sick though. I know a KB cobra that would GLADLY race that vette though... hehe
I watched the end of this video closely and the way the FRC pulled RPM is definetely N/A. Nitrous LS1-LS6's RPM quicker 3rd-4th than this car. The COBRA had a strong 1st-2nd but needed more boost to run this FRC. The COBRA should never be under-rated, lots of potential. Its just more MPH to over come the weight advantage of a Z06. Always a great match-up.
Thats not a Z06. The 99 c5 coupe comes with the ls1 350 hp and 350 trq but it comes with the z06 trunk. Remember that chevys pull more on top end after 3rd ;)
1st, great video.Heads/Cam/Intake/Exhaust/Tune/LS1-LS6's make 460-490RWHP. FRC or Z06 weight 3080(average).03/04 COBRA's weight 600 LBS more(average). I like them both. I own a 01 Z06 w-exh/cai. Weight/Aerodynamics makes a big difference.
It's not a z06. Not all hard tops are a z06. Before the z06 came out in '01 there was a hard top model offered in '99 and '00. GM turned the hard top into the z06 in '01
I'm not talking about the TOP. I'm talking about the REAR HATCH AREA. This year model z06 doesn't have that long sloping glass like the regular C5 or an F-body does. Go Google it and you'll see what i mean. Now, the C6 z06 does have the traditional glass.
You are wrong. This is a '99 FRC. (Fixed roof coupe) The Z06 didn't come out until '01 and it was based off this car. It has the standard suspension and LS-1 instead of the Z06 LS-6. You can tell the difference by the lack of emblems, rear brake ducts, and intake hole screens. They are rare, that's why you don't know about them.
YEAH IT'S FAST BECAUSE IT'S A Z06. that's obvious from the back glass and the wheels. I don't know who would go to that much trouble of making a stock C5 LOOK like a Z06 so don't give me that crap.
You guys are idiots. There is absolutely no possible way in hell he was spraying. You CANNOT HIT THE REV LIMITER WHEN SPRAYING or you'll find a whole new way to pop open your hood.
ok im the biggest vette fan boy on the planet i admit that but im sure that vette had something more then just heads and cams...either that or its the most agressive cam on the planet...im thinking spray.
lol You could make that 1000 for the vette if you want. I have around 1300 videos. Yes its chevy power. No need for supercharger to take on a Ford lol.

there are plenty of ford crate motors that do 500hp+ and ford chooses smaller blocks and goes with forced induction because its cheaper, easier and you get the same results, now idk why everybody who loves american muscle feels the need to put down other domestics, hell, you dont see toyo lovers do that to honda lovers, they all share rice evenly, now i am a ford guy through and through but i love all american muscle regardless of make or model
ADD8oi 1 year ago
i never said anything bad about ford motors until you provoked me to reveal the truth. you put down the lsx and chevy first, making false claims about how ford engines are better when that clearly isn't factual. so i hope you are applying your own comment to yourself as well, because you wouldn't have said what you did if you believed in being supposedly unbiased like the jap lovers.
scarface115 1 year ago
indeed, it applies to everybody talking down about other american cars, me included, but you were putting down ford engines by calling them shit without forced induction when in reality ford makes some pretty kick ass engines, as do chevy and dodge
ADD8oi 1 year ago
like i said, i wouldn't have insulted ford engines if you didn't insult the lsx and chevy first. your the one who came to me looking for an argument, so you got it. i'm just carrying on because i want you to understand the situation.
scarface115 1 year ago
yeah, and i merely pointed out that there indeed are all engine crates from ford that make 500+hp without forced induction, that was the only point i was making, why ford doesnt put these engines in their production vehicles, well thats beyond my knowledge

This video clearly states that the cobras are pathetic. A bolt on cobra cant beat a heads cam c5 not even a z06 seriously! I think Ford needs to shoot themselves more then once. Sorry for such hatred but seriously Cobras are a joke.
geoff18t 2 years ago
you are some kind of an idiot for making a stupid comment like that. I would bet that you don't have either?
98Snake 2 years ago
How am i an idiot? This cobra has bolt ons should be atleast 440whp and it cant beat a heads cam corvette? Come on man think supercharged vs n/a. This cobra should destroy the vette but it doesnt. Look at Chevys ZR1 Corvette its supercharged and its 10 times faster then a cobra. I actually have 2 friends with corvettes. One is a 8 Sec 427 N/A Z06 and the other is a C5 with a MS4 Cam puttin down about 460whp. Cobras just arent even in the same league as corvettes.
geoff18t 2 years ago
sorry, idiot was a little over the edge. I have a 03 Cobra and there are different perks to both cars. For one, cobras are cheap to mod. A HCI vette isn't cheap to build. Mine makes about 500 rwhp on the street tune and runs 124 in the 1/4. I have put about 5K into my car as far as tuning, and mods. Yeah the ZR1 is faster (I could be faster with a KB or TT set up easy for 6K. The ZR1 is a 110+K dollar car, should it better be fast.
98Snake 2 years ago
Your still missing the point. You can buy a c5 corvette for way less then a cobra. Put 5k into a corvette that you payed 12-13k which is what there going for these days and your still way behind the cost in a cobra. Point being also corvettes dont need a supercharger like cobras do. A cam for a corvette is not expensive at all and you could find used heads or port the stock ones. Sorry modded cobras will never compete with corvettes. Should have bought a corvette and not a cobra.
geoff18t 2 years ago
I see your point. Cobras and vettes were never made to compete. Yes there are faster cars. I have lost to only one vette....and it was a 07 ZO6 making more rwhp than I. I can live with that.
98Snake 2 years ago
12 or 13 k?? with how many miles on it 70k or more?? i payed 18k for my cobra and it only had 22k miles and it was pullied lowered tinted and tuned... dont get me wrong both are awesome cars and i would love to have a vette but cobras are cheaper and always have been.
bluecapone 2 years ago
Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against mustangs, you can make them mean but that vette just sounds so god damn mean.
thedominionx 2 years ago
I have taken apart Stang motor Heads and Vette motor Heads. compare the heads of a vette with a stang. The ports are much bigger. vette heads gain more hp than a stangs heads simply because they flow 10 times better so they always make more hp.
alex369 3 years ago
Ok so even if its 460 at the wheels its not gonna pull on a modded cobra like that so i still call bs on the n/a. Either way they're both nice cars and i'd drive the shit outta either one of em
blown87gt 3 years ago
Yeah but the Vette weighs 600 or more lbs less. and it is alot more aerodynamic. Why do you think a Camaro and a Mustang with the sme hp can race and the Camaro pulls up top. and the Corvette is even more aero than the Camaro. A stock Vette with 350hp hits 175mph because of gearing. No Mustang can do that with the same power.
nevermissclancom 2 years ago
Not a chance in hell that vette is stock, that cobra with a pulley chip and exhaust is prob puttin out between 450-500 at the wheels.. I call major bs
blown87gt 3 years ago
Are you guys blind or something? It clearly says at the first the vette has a stock motor BUT with a heads/cam setup so no its not stock but it does have a stock bottom end. Its probably making anywhere between 390-460 depending on the heads and cam.

bull shit a c5 can easily get owned by 2001 n/a cobra and a mach 1. stock c5 vettes are slow. And this vette aint stock. read ppl its got a head and cam swap

What the hell are you smoking kid. My daily driver is a freaking 04 Mach1 and when i had it stock i could not take a stock C5 heads were not swapped by the way just modified. You got to give the vette props. It beat the cobra all motor. with out a S/c

The FRC owner should post the mods to the car. A stock LS1/6 motor w/numerous external bolt-ons & stock short block + 3.90's will run in the 11:20-90's at 114-120+MPH. Less weight & better Aerodynamics=MPH advantage.
GHOSTRIDERZ06 4 years ago
umm...okay you TARDS must not know ANYTHING about the ls1.....did yall know heads and cams one a ls1 can be anywhere frmo 450to 570rwhp? idiots......it all depends on how radical his setup is. fyi the cobra would have to have 60rwhp more over the vette to stay even with it at speed
twisthewrist 4 years ago
I call BS on that thing being a heads/cam only car. If it is true the cobra needs a tune or something. A cobra with the right tune should run mid to upper 11's all day if you can drive. So should the vette. Those cars should have been pretty close IMO.

There's no possible way he was spraying. He was hitting the rev limiter, and if you do that while spraying it'll detonate and blow the intake manifold apart.

apexak 4 years ago
I'm throwin a bullshit flag, but there's a few possibilities, either that cobra is stock, the vette has way more mods than what it says there, or the cobra was driven by some sort of handicapped child without a liscense cuz there's no way a vette would pull that hard on a pullied/tuned cobra. They're fast, but not that fast. I have a cobra, and I've driven c5's. Both nice cars, just not the full story.

torridredaccd 4 years ago
My buddy bought a 99 FRC after owning an Cobra. It had a CAI,Exhaust,Pulley and tune. 120 MPH in the 1/4 on DR's. My Z06 had LT's, X-pipe, Zip-Tie mod. It went 117 MPH in the 1/4. No traction thru 2nd.I ran a Cobra with similar mods.I pulled 3 cars from 45-130 MPH. Cobras are fast if tuned right. The Hardtop in this video must be making 460HP or more. The owner should post the mods so we know. Both cars are a blast to own.
GHOSTRIDERZ06 4 years ago
The 1999 and 2000 Hardtop Corvettes,which look like a Z06 at first glance were the foundation for the 2001 Z06(Which I own). The 99 and 2000 Hardtop Corvettes are between 110-135 LBS lighter,depending on wheels/tires than a Coupe model.
They are also know as FRC's or Fixed Roof Coupe even thought they Hardtop Models. These cars come with the Z51 suspension as standard equipment.
GHOSTRIDERZ06 4 years ago
Oh yeah that vette was stock...Yeah right! I cant imagine gm selling a vette that is that loud straight from the factory. Both cars are sick though. I know a KB cobra that would GLADLY race that vette though... hehe

wyldfantasyx 4 years ago
I watched the end of this video closely and the way the FRC pulled RPM is definetely N/A. Nitrous LS1-LS6's RPM quicker 3rd-4th than this car. The COBRA had a strong 1st-2nd but needed more boost to run this FRC. The COBRA should never be under-rated, lots of potential. Its just more MPH to over come the weight advantage of a Z06. Always a great match-up.
GhostRiderVincenzo 4 years ago
Thats not a Z06. The 99 c5 coupe comes with the ls1 350 hp and 350 trq but it comes with the z06 trunk. Remember that chevys pull more on top end after 3rd ;)
alex369 4 years ago
1st, great video.Heads/Cam/Intake/Exhaust/Tune/LS1-LS6's make 460-490RWHP. FRC or Z06 weight 3080(average).03/04 COBRA's weight 600 LBS more(average). I like them both. I own a 01 Z06 w-exh/cai. Weight/Aerodynamics makes a big difference.
GhostRiderVincenzo 4 years ago
It's not a z06. Not all hard tops are a z06. Before the z06 came out in '01 there was a hard top model offered in '99 and '00. GM turned the hard top into the z06 in '01
speeddemon906 5 years ago
I'm not talking about the TOP. I'm talking about the REAR HATCH AREA. This year model z06 doesn't have that long sloping glass like the regular C5 or an F-body does. Go Google it and you'll see what i mean. Now, the C6 z06 does have the traditional glass.
HarleyBobber 5 years ago
You are wrong. This is a '99 FRC. (Fixed roof coupe) The Z06 didn't come out until '01 and it was based off this car. It has the standard suspension and LS-1 instead of the Z06 LS-6. You can tell the difference by the lack of emblems, rear brake ducts, and intake hole screens. They are rare, that's why you don't know about them.
