Are we talking about a new Z06 here?

And BTW, you can run 11.5's with 350rwhp if your suspension is setup correct.

I didin't do anything, I'm buying this car.. I told you I don't know exactly all the details, and if you read the 1st page, it's been ported, bored, rebuilt, carb, exuast system, ect.. I don't know exactly how many or what upgrades there are, I'm going to go on the 18th to see it, test it, ect. I'm just telling you all what I was told.

Like I said, I'll let you all know everything once I do.

400-600 hp is a huge difference, but regardless it will pin you to your seat. The list of mods should tell, the story and if it's anywhere north of 450 hp, you're stealing it for under $6,000.

Something I was wondering, would you guys think I can use this car as my daily driver? As long as I let it cool down and drive it easy, only hard to race?
