NEW CONTEST! GUESS THE POWER, WIN COOL STUFF, IRON MAN 2 EDITION!

[rickerwill]

Hmmmm.  Presuming it is a Katech 7.0 without the C5-R intake restrictors, but lowered compression ratio to enable the, oh, 10 lbs of  boost (like, 9.0:1), and running somewhat less exotic bearings and a "streetable" cam, all through a, basically, OEM 6-speed drivetrain (what is "race-prepped?") but with a high-perf clutch and beefed third member, my guess is:

658 hp and 618 lb/ft torque at the wheels.

. . . but, then, I am making a BUNCH of assumptions that may be totally off base, eh?

Just as a bit of information; this car is using a F1R Procharger at about 18-20lbs.  427ci C5R built for us by Midwest Engine Tech out of Mokena, IL.  Automatic 4L60E built specially for JR by Finish Line Transmissions.  Rear End in this video was Z06 Unit built by Rodney over at RPM.  It is currently the fastest street legal Procharged car in the country.  Low 9's at 150ish MPH. 


Hoping to go a bit faster this year....  Stay tuned!

Thanks for the update Tony!    I know John and crew have been thrashing on the 'Vette a lot recently... looking to see some killer numbers out of it this year!

[CanAmChris]
