This true split-window features a host of custom features all
neatly integrated to create a classic 'Vette. The Glossy Black
paint and bodywork show very well, with body panels lining up as
they should. The car has 2-inch rear quarter flares with Billet
Specialties wheels. New chrome trim and chrome bumpers finish off
the clean look of this vintage 'Vette. Supportive bucket seats are
finished in the same leather trim as the dashboard, door panels and
rear cargo area. A center-mounted boost gauge takes the place of
the original vertically mounted radio. An array of AutoMeter
silver-faced gauges keep a silver theme, together with the billet
shifter, billet vents and silver accent lines on the door panels.
The Vintage Air control unit is mounted high on the dashboard,
while a Generation 4 air conditioning system was used because it
sits higher in the dashboard so it doesn't encroach on passenger
foot space like the C2 system does. Beneath the hood is an LS3 V8
engine with a Magnuson Supercharger. The engine bay and all
components within are clean with many polished components. What
started out as a 525hp LS3 was sent straight to Lingenfelter for
ported cylinder heads, supercharger and camshaft. Gear selection is
handled by a TREMEC TKO600 5-speed manual transmission with a Lokar
shifter. A hydraulic clutch makes shifting through the gears a
little more manageable. The 'Vette has long-tube headers and
polished side pipes with muffler inserts. The engine produces
approximately 700hp, according to a dyno test done after the build
was completed. Wilwood brakes on all four corners provided the
stopping power to the 18- and 19-inch Billet Specialties wheels
with Kumho tires, and an aluminum driveshaft helps transfer power
to the rear end. This 'Vette has Street Shop powder-coated chassis
with C4 Corvette suspension and the custom control arms and rear
housing truss intermingle with QA1 coilovers.
