I would never/ever buy a rebuilt Vette. They can have serious electrical problems.

Been in that car many times (before it turned yellow). I think it still has the LS7 with a health cam unless they changed it out. Still a dog! :sFi_hammers: Would love to see the dyno..... guessing 540whp. BTW the car target weight is 2350lbs.

Try 480hp. Cam sounds healthy but doesn't work.

I'm definitely not a fan of these cars. Not much fun to drive around.

Not really fun to drive. Un comfortable with bad peddle/ shifter placement.

They look nice and definitely an attention getter.

Thats it.....480....wow!! I agree with you (even though I own one). They are tight and low to the ground. Their loud, traction can be an issue and comfort features are lacking. Not sure how many you have worked on, but the build quility can go from horrendous to almost OEM and everything in between. These cars for the most part are built by average Joes not top flight custom builders. I have a C6 for the comfort and the GTM for the raw power and head turning good looks. Take mine for a spin and maybe it will be different. I have used different pedels and modifies thew placement. The shifter I used is from Brantwood (threw the FF5 crap out) and slid the linkage forward about 4". Feels much better than the stock placements. But then again, the Vette is still way more comfortable.
