THIS VETTE DOES NOT HAVE THE ORIGINAL MOTOR, BUT HAS AN EARLY SEVENTIES CORVETTE 454 BLOCK THAT HAS BEEN COMPLETLY REBUILT AND UPGRADED WITH SOME SERIOUS HORSEPOWER. IT IS TOPPED OFF WITH DART ALUMINUM HEADS AND ALUMINUM VALVE COVERS THAT LOOK AWESOME. WE JUST HAD IT PUT ON A DYNO AND WITH A CONSERVATIVE TUNE AND PUMP GAS IN 102 DEGREE HEAT, IT PUT OUT 375 HORSEPOWER AT THE REAR TIRES AND 393 LB/FT OF TORQUE AT THE TIRES. THAT MEANS THE MOTOR IS PUTTING OUT 450 HORSEPOWER AND 475 LB IT HAS BEEN UPGRADED WITH A COMPLETE HOOKER EXHAUST SYSTEM WITH CHROME PLATED HEADERS AND SIDEPIPES, ALUMINUM STEALTH INTAKE MANIFOLD, HOLLEY CARBURATOR, HI-TORQUE MINI STARTER, MSD DISTRIBUTOR, IGNITION BOX, COIL AND IGNITION WIRES.

THIS IS A GREAT SHOW/DRIVER/INVESTMENT CAR THAT YOU WILL ENJOY LOOKING AT AS MUCH AS YOU ENJOY DRIVING IT. I DROVE THIS CAR AROUND IN 100 DEGREE TEMPERATURES AND IT NEVER WENT OVER 200 DEGREES ON THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE, THAT IS AWESOME FOR A 500 HORSEPOWER BIG BLOCK VETT!!! THE ONLY BLEMS ON THE CAR THAT ARE WORTH MENTIONING IS A SPOT ON THE HOOD WERE IT HAS AN AIR BUBBLE UNDER THE PAINT AND A SMALL SPOT WHERE THERE IS A SMALL CRACK IN THE PAINT ON THE TOP OF THE HOOD. THERE IS A SMALL KNICK IN THE CORNER OF THE PAINT ON THE R/S HEADLIGHT DOOR, BUT THESE CERTAINLY DO NOT DETRACT FROM THE OUTSTANDING OVERALL CONDITION OF THE CAR. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE BEING THE CENTER OF ATTENTION EVERY WHERE YOU GO, THIS IS NOT THE RIGHT CAR FOR YOU, IT DRAWS A CROWD EVERYWHERE IT GOES AND PEOPLE YOUNG AND OLD START DROOLING OVER IT. THE SOUND OF THE SIDEPIPES ALONE GIVE PEOPLE A BIG SMILE, BUT NOT AS BIG ON THE ONE ON YOUR FACE WHILE YOUR DRIVING IT!!! IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE GIVE US A CALL AT (480) 894-4004.
