Will if your worried about strength you can always change over to the GM iron block with an aftermarket rotating assembly. This should be good for 2000hp+.
@ZR1Terror I have a twin turbo 300zx, and im with you on that one. I would just install basic bolt on's on the LS7 And that would be more then fast enough for me, but runing a 8.49 would be like a dream come true :)
You can't even string a sentence together you ignorant fuck so I'm not surprised you can't tell time or read the calendar. This pass was made 5 years ago you twat.
AHHHHH,, i love the new Vettes,, 80s, 90s,, eh,, the 90s were pretty cool with the lt1 and LS1,, but man,, the new ZR1??? man what a beast to beat the supercars with enuff leftover to buy a new house,, but i think i would go (if i hit the lottery) with a Zo6, and turbo it!! you would go like hell and save $ over a new Zr1.. this car is SICK!!!!,, shows that for a Fraction of the cost of a new Bugatti. you can blow its doors off and buy a new house on the beach, maybe a new boat too!!
Nice! I was lookin for this vid for awhile. This is with a parir of T4 67mm turbo's and a built 383. I've seen the car run in person, very strong and Paul is a super dialed driver for sure. And like any car getting turbo's, you have to build the engine stronger with forged parts that can take the added pressures of turbo's and high boost while keeping it all together.
But be warned, its bearings cannot stay together at those power levels; since it will pull about 720hp.
The oil grade will lose its lubricating qualities due to high heat, pressures and rpms, And the bored out cylinder block is too thin.
This is why GM could not warrantee a supercharged LS7, so they went with a detuned or de-stroked or de literized version. The 6.2 liter with dry sump oil arrangements.
@melvinifudu personally seen plenty of 1000+hp forced induction ls7's, plan on working my way towards 700-750 whp in my daily driver and 1200-1300 in my 5.3 truck based block when i get back to the states. look up lmr's tt c6z
In a nutshell, you're correct. Correct as long as you don't include the fact that the LS9 uses a forged steel crank, and titanium rods, compared to a nodular iron crank and powdered metal rods found in the LS3. The cam profile is a bit different in the LS9, and there are some subtle differences in the clyinder heads as well. Minus the fact that the LS9 is supercharged, and uses a dry sump like you mentioned, these are the differences in the two that I can think of off hand. There may even b more
Well obviously, drosin22, turbochargers take advantage of exhaust gasses that would of otherwise been wasted. They also take advantage of being a completely seperate object, if you'd call it that, they are not tied in with the serpentine system, such as a supercharger.
That adds up to less parasitic loss, and more power at equivalent boost levels. In most drag racer's opinions, superchargers are a thing of the past. 10.5 Outlaw racers are getting 2,000+ HP out of single turbo engines.
the reason gm went with the 6.2 vs 7.0 is beacuse there selling a car that is targeted towards a 911 turbo or the nissan gtr buyer someone that wants something they can drive 5-12k miles a year for 3-5 years then be able to sell it and the new owner do the same thing
ls7 supercharged would put out about 725hp how do you make 725hp reliable enough to sell it with a warranty im not sure how they do it with 638
WRONG, the reason they went with a 6.2 litre as oppose to the 7.0 is because the 6.2 is a destroked version of the 7. It would handle the extra pressure of the supercharger. Where do people come up with these comments. How do you know what the engineers were thinking regarding warranty and how much power the thing would make, you can detune any motor to make it strong but make less power for reliability. If only youtubers read more than they commented. Not trying to be rude just do some research
I hate to read between the lines, but if he socal1000 in a nut shell says its b/c of liability you say how do you know what the engineers were thinking Well the same way u know why they didntu probably read it some where man, lol. Also if Im reading your statement correct youre not completely correct as well. The LS9 is a supercharged 6,162 cc (6.162 L; 376.0 cu in) engine, based on the LS3; not a destroked version of the 7 the LS7 block was not used due to the higher cylinder...
...pressures created by the supercharger requiring the thicker cylinder walls of the LS3. The LS9 is destroked small block yes; but the cylinders walls have a smaller bore which makes the cylinder walls thicker & thats technically why they didnt use the LS7.
the car shouldve come with a red cape for the driver to wear. maybe we could cruise Targets paking lot on a Friday night in it together. the kids will go nuts
careful cause GM knows about TT and Superchargers, and still didnt put it on z06. There is a good reason. LS7 engine cant take it for long, if ran at high psi continuosly,.
not true at all....the LS block itslef can handle so much thats why people run such high power in them safely....so maybe you should watch it....let me put it this way if an LS block cant handle the power...im pretty sure your an import fan but maybe not...if an LS block cant handle the TT setup the 4 bangers definately arent...the v8 setup is the only one that can truelly and utterly bring out the best in a v8 setup..idk how anything from there up does havent seen enuff of em
if its not true about what i said previously, then why did GM use a slower V8 for the ZR1?
Look up ZR1 on utube or ask anyone who knows about OHVs, and they will tell u that the engine wall 4 d LS7 is thinner than the 6.2 Liter LS3. The thinner the wall, the more the Liters or Cubic inch, and the less pressure it could take if u have forced induction.
The LS8 is also derived from the LS3 not LS7. Thats why it also runs a supercharger. It can take it.
@MangoSmoothie16 - they took the LS3 and souped it up and supercharged it cause the cylinder walls are thicker. it made more horsepower than the rest of the motors so they called it the LS9. get what im sayin?
im not saying that thicker cylinder walls arent better, but you can get away with forced induction on LS7s. two guys i go to the track with both have built LS7s in c5s with serious juice. ones a 300 shot (fogger) and one is a 250 shot(fogger). both have lasted the whole season.
@vfIskullangel Thanks bro,melvinifudu really sounds like an import lover.Those skyline lovers, always kill me ,when they make commits like,o i would kill ,to get one of those cars. why , because without TONS TONS TONS TONS TONS TONS TONS of boost there nothing, those FOOLS , F CK all imports !!!!!!!!!
@vfIskullangel I agree.. The LS7s LSX motors are very durable. I am a more of a ford man but I give credit where credit is due. I have a few friends that run these engines with turbos and others with Nitrious and are running 1/8 mile times in the 5.70s for the last 2 seasons without doing any damage to the engines so they are proven good engines!! American made engines are a lot more durable than most people give them credit for. I have a ton of buddies running factory block 700+ hp racecars.
@melvinifudu Do you REALLY know, if an LS7 engine can take high boost for long ,careful cause im sencing your an import lover. with the tq & hp those LS7s put out do they really need to be boosted.Lets see LS7 has FORGED every thing ,Buick Gran National GNX versions ran constant 15+ lbs boost and lived for years,and those 3.8s where built weaker than the LS7s.
C5 Z06. Don't know what you mean by name on the twin turbo. Turbos were manufactured by Precision. When the car was tuned on "kill" it put down about 1,100 hp at the rear wheels.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
what does this have to do with ricers? and i noe ur being stupid and using that term to refer to japanese cars in general and not the actual "ricers" which all car enthusiasts hate. but either way yeah wtf does this have to do with ricers?
Here's the interesting part. This run was made back in 2006. No stock diplacement LS6 car has run a better number to date. 346 cubes of whoop-ass. Most unfortunate part is that one of the guys who were instrumental in building this car was tragically killed in a car accident in October '08. One of very few guys I trusted to keep me safe in this car.
And that Evo probably weighs half of a Corvette too. And it's over 1 second quicker. You really need to learn something about cars and technology before you spew useless shit.
dude your comparing awd to rwd...of coarse for a better part of that track the evo is gonna pull hard as shit cuz of its launch...but at the end of that track that corvettes gonna pull further away...make it any longer lets say you could stretch it 2 a half mile that vette is gonna make it look like a snail...there will be to much space inbetween that it wont even be funny
Damn thats is awesome. Thanks man I just needed some proof because some guys I work with they didnt believe that a care could go from 0-60 in under 2 seconds. I told them about that Lingenfelter vette that did it in 1.97 seconds and they said I was full of shit. I figured this one was faster. Thanks for helping me prove them all wrong.
This car was set up for short distance racing (1/4 mile) so I have no clue. Highest speed I trapped in 1/4 mile was 159 mph. I'm sure that with the right transmission and gearing it could top 200 mph. So, tell your co-workers that while their cars go 0-60 mph in 8 seconds this car goes 0-160 mph in 8.4 seconds.
Thanks man, they dont have shit to say anymore and might I add that is one hell of a machine. *Sigh* to bad I will never own one because I will never have that kind of money.
exactly dumb shit. You homosexuals cry to others about how fast your car is and how much better it is when it comes down to basic physics and science, but that shit is waaay over your motor heads.
of course you don't know what i'm talking it. I'm too smart for you. But what's the importance of a fast car? Makes your ego bigger? Please let me know.
I was someone like you once, until one day i rode in a z06 and my point of views completely changed. People who have this kind of money do not care about mpg, so if u were too smart like you just said, a person who cares about MPGs is a person who wants to economize, most probably meaning he doesn't have the money for maintaining a beauty like this. However, a person who does, like this man, could give a shit less about MPG.
Oookkk, you ever heard about MC Hammer? Or a billion other wealthy individuals who were rich one second and poor the next? It's always good to be frugal no matter how rich you are. I can't believe just because you rode in a z06 your views completely changed, you must be easily manipulated. By the way, it's "Couldn't give a shit less..." Anyhow, what I'm trying to get through thick skulls is simple, the more gas you burn, the more energy available...but obviously some people don't understand.
Also I would just like to clarify that this man probably studied his ass off in school, went to a nice college, and got a nice job which gave him the opportunity to own a car like this. I think he deserves to drive that car without having to take any bullshit from anybody.
I'm sorry but you're suppose to be smart? Why the f*ck are you watching these videos if you're not into cars? To me you seem like a complete retard, not just unintelligent.
Sorry but I could care less what people on Youtube think of me. I do beleive I already stated what makes you an idiot. Try reading that helps sometimes...
wow you look like the one that's retarded; it's 'couldn't' care less, not could care less. You really suck at dissing people since you can't even restate what made me an idiot. Don't quit your day job man.
Well appearantly I'm replying to you so I obviously care enough to make fun of retards like you. Thus I could indeed care less by not responding or indicating in the first place. And if you're really that dumb and lazy that I need to restate what I wrote three comments down then I just feel sorry for you. But here you go stupid;"Why the f*ck are you watching these videos if you're not into cars?". Enjoy your attempt at reading.
haha you idiot, when did i state i wasn't into cars? Exactly. I was stating the scientific reasoning as to why the video posters car when faster than other peoples' he was talking about. That's good you can care less, that really is a pretty lame statement. Smart people use the couldn't care less because it actually has a logical impact as opposed to your lame insults, lol @ could care less. Enjoy your attempt at reading.
Depends on how quickly you want to go. It's a custom installation not a "kit" so it relly depends. I had over $100,000 into the car not including the cost of the car
Why would it overheat? The car didn't run any hotter on the street than at the track. You need to learn something about cars before you provide such valuable feedback. I sold this car almost two years ago yet NOBODY has been able to run quicker than 8.49 with a stock cube LS motor so STOP HATIN'. THIS IS A 346 CID LS6 WITH STOCK HEADS AND HYDRAULIC CAM. But most of you have no phucking clue what that means so go back to shining your Civics. Phucking RICERS.
Easy tiger, I've met plenty of idiots who drove mustangs and corvettes.
That said, I agree with your comment, kids need to learn wtf they are talking about before saying shit.
Im curious though, why would you spend that much money to make your corvette THAT fast, and leave the heads stock? Yeah they arent bad, but even trickflow heads would net you some huge power at your level.
Honestly, because plenty of people said it couldn't be done with LS6 heads. Just like they said running more than 16 lbs of boost on an LS block wasn't possible. Or that spinning the motor to 7800 rpm with a hydraulic cam wasn't possible. Before I was offered the price I was asking for the car, we planned to change in 2007 to solid roller cam, forged crank, new heads, and slightly larger turbos. Money wasn't the issue. I just like proving people wrong.
the only rice id touch is a 240sx, but im not comprehending how you can make so much power w/out the engine running way hotter, and by the 'drive it on the street' comment also meant keeping it from breaking loose on the highway, or at least excersising enough restraint to, because i had trouble with my 69 camaro w/ a 383 built block, with the 4speed auto it was breaking loose if i gassed enough to downshift, and that was only with about 560bhp
It's not like you're constantly in boost and driving 160 mph on the highway so you overheat. I really don't get what you don't understand? There are plenty of 1000+ hp street rods that drive every day and don't overheat. I used a multi-stage boost controller that I could set for different conditions. Of course I would break loose if I just nailed it. That's why you ramp boost even at the track.
If you don't mind telling what turbo's you used, curious minds want to know.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
what does this have to do with ricers? and i noe ur being stupid and using that term to refer to japanese cars in general and not the actual "ricers" which all car enthusiasts hate. but either way yeah wtf does this have to do with ricers?

Here's the interesting part. This run was made back in 2006. No stock diplacement LS6 car has run a better number to date. 346 cubes of whoop-ass. Most unfortunate part is that one of the guys who were instrumental in building this car was tragically killed in a car accident in October '08. One of very few guys I trusted to keep me safe in this car.

And that Evo probably weighs half of a Corvette too. And it's over 1 second quicker. You really need to learn something about cars and technology before you spew useless shit.

dude your comparing awd to rwd...of coarse for a better part of that track the evo is gonna pull hard as shit cuz of its launch...but at the end of that track that corvettes gonna pull further away...make it any longer lets say you could stretch it 2 a half mile that vette is gonna make it look like a snail...there will be to much space inbetween that it wont even be funny

Damn thats is awesome. Thanks man I just needed some proof because some guys I work with they didnt believe that a care could go from 0-60 in under 2 seconds. I told them about that Lingenfelter vette that did it in 1.97 seconds and they said I was full of shit. I figured this one was faster. Thanks for helping me prove them all wrong.

Best thing about this car was that it accelerated to 60 mph on rear wheels while the front ones were still in the air.
Z06paul 3 years ago
Shit that is some power, and by the way I went on Cartek's website and I couldnt find the 346 kit.
puckerzzz 3 years ago
That's because this is not a "kit." This was a custom design and installation. 1000+ hp does not come in an off-the-shelf "kit."
Z06paul 3 years ago
Oh I see, well do you have an idea of the estimated top speed of this vette
puckerzzz 3 years ago
This car was set up for short distance racing (1/4 mile) so I have no clue. Highest speed I trapped in 1/4 mile was 159 mph. I'm sure that with the right transmission and gearing it could top 200 mph. So, tell your co-workers that while their cars go 0-60 mph in 8 seconds this car goes 0-160 mph in 8.4 seconds.
Z06paul 3 years ago

of course you don't know what i'm talking it. I'm too smart for you. But what's the importance of a fast car? Makes your ego bigger? Please let me know.
b00mface 3 years ago
I was someone like you once, until one day i rode in a z06 and my point of views completely changed. People who have this kind of money do not care about mpg, so if u were too smart like you just said, a person who cares about MPGs is a person who wants to economize, most probably meaning he doesn't have the money for maintaining a beauty like this. However, a person who does, like this man, could give a shit less about MPG.
camsac 3 years ago
Oookkk, you ever heard about MC Hammer? Or a billion other wealthy individuals who were rich one second and poor the next? It's always good to be frugal no matter how rich you are. I can't believe just because you rode in a z06 your views completely changed, you must be easily manipulated. By the way, it's "Couldn't give a shit less..." Anyhow, what I'm trying to get through thick skulls is simple, the more gas you burn, the more energy available...but obviously some people don't understand.
b00mface 3 years ago
Also I would just like to clarify that this man probably studied his ass off in school, went to a nice college, and got a nice job which gave him the opportunity to own a car like this. I think he deserves to drive that car without having to take any bullshit from anybody.

Well appearantly I'm replying to you so I obviously care enough to make fun of retards like you. Thus I could indeed care less by not responding or indicating in the first place. And if you're really that dumb and lazy that I need to restate what I wrote three comments down then I just feel sorry for you. But here you go stupid;"Why the f*ck are you watching these videos if you're not into cars?". Enjoy your attempt at reading.
TiKondaRoga 3 years ago
haha you idiot, when did i state i wasn't into cars? Exactly. I was stating the scientific reasoning as to why the video posters car when faster than other peoples' he was talking about. That's good you can care less, that really is a pretty lame statement. Smart people use the couldn't care less because it actually has a logical impact as opposed to your lame insults, lol @ could care less. Enjoy your attempt at reading.

you would have a fun time trying to drive this on the street it would over heat like a mother F**ker
shizzzleboo 3 years ago
Why would it overheat? The car didn't run any hotter on the street than at the track. You need to learn something about cars before you provide such valuable feedback. I sold this car almost two years ago yet NOBODY has been able to run quicker than 8.49 with a stock cube LS motor so STOP HATIN'. THIS IS A 346 CID LS6 WITH STOCK HEADS AND HYDRAULIC CAM. But most of you have no phucking clue what that means so go back to shining your Civics. Phucking RICERS.
Z06paul 3 years ago
Easy tiger, I've met plenty of idiots who drove mustangs and corvettes.
That said, I agree with your comment, kids need to learn wtf they are talking about before saying shit.
Im curious though, why would you spend that much money to make your corvette THAT fast, and leave the heads stock? Yeah they arent bad, but even trickflow heads would net you some huge power at your level.
JgHaverty 3 years ago
Honestly, because plenty of people said it couldn't be done with LS6 heads. Just like they said running more than 16 lbs of boost on an LS block wasn't possible. Or that spinning the motor to 7800 rpm with a hydraulic cam wasn't possible. Before I was offered the price I was asking for the car, we planned to change in 2007 to solid roller cam, forged crank, new heads, and slightly larger turbos. Money wasn't the issue. I just like proving people wrong.
Z06paul 3 years ago

thisDUDE 3 years ago
the only rice id touch is a 240sx, but im not comprehending how you can make so much power w/out the engine running way hotter, and by the 'drive it on the street' comment also meant keeping it from breaking loose on the highway, or at least excersising enough restraint to, because i had trouble with my 69 camaro w/ a 383 built block, with the 4speed auto it was breaking loose if i gassed enough to downshift, and that was only with about 560bhp
shizzzleboo 3 years ago
It's not like you're constantly in boost and driving 160 mph on the highway so you overheat. I really don't get what you don't understand? There are plenty of 1000+ hp street rods that drive every day and don't overheat. I used a multi-stage boost controller that I could set for different conditions. Of course I would break loose if I just nailed it. That's why you ramp boost even at the track.
