All things C6 Z06...

Check out the vid: http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=105876

And I've been lurking around the C6 Z06 forum of Z06Vette.com and, man, I am loving these things.

Check the dyno: http://www.antivenomonline.com/dyno.mpg

Apparently, the car has been baselined between 440WHP to 453WHP to the wheels, and 400WTQ to 424WTQ. The higher dyno was done with a car with about 200+ miles on it, and the lower figures came from a car with 60 miles on the odo. All this in a car that weighs-in at 3150 lbs. Also, simply removing the air-filter, which is ungodly restrictive, adds 20+ WHP!

Here's a pic of the filter, which may be the way it is to quiet the motor down:

Well, looks like another car I can dream about, and not get...oh well.

Oh, and check out this article: http://www.mph-online.com/web/news/00121

Gotta love a pushrod 427 ci V8 revving to 7k rpms...technology rocks! I'm an import dude through and through, but god damn...the sound of that LS7 gave me wood...gimmie!

7 liter LS7 actually...the regular C6 vettes have the LS2, which is in fact 6 liters IIRC.

Oh, forgot to add, here's what headers, and hi-flow cats did:

This is from a car that baselined on the same dyno at 441WHP. Also, with the mods, removal of the air-filter netted 492WHP!

BTW, all of the above is with NO tune, as the LS7 edit software is yet to come out.

EDIT: How can I miss posting this awesome thread.

This is one of the few domestics that I wouldn't mind owning.

CassiesMan · #8 10-13-2005, 04:41 PM

7.0L, 400 hp? Weak Sauce.

street_racer_00 · #12 10-13-2005, 05:50 PM

no no no no....the 6 liter regular vette puts out 400 hp...the 7 liter Z06 puts out 505.

CassiesMan · #13 10-13-2005, 05:51 PM

Ok, 505hp, 7L motor. 71.42hp/L. Meh. Call me when they are making 100 per liter.

The heads look like in order to have them flowed....you would need a wind tunnel.

Couple mods....500 RWHP easy. Incredible cars.

Trust me, it ain't that easy from an engineering perspective to get 100 hp/liter, especially a pushrod V8 without FI.
