That is a sweet build!
Am I missing something with all the ZR1 parts popping up around this site?
I thought the LS9 wasn't going to be released until next fall? Does anyone has a price on them yet?

My understanding is they are about 25K and will be out shortly.

That is a pretty strong statement from a major magazine.

yet another nice addition for you guys at some point I would love to work a deal to get some wheels on one of these. Keep up the great work and keep the pictures coming.

I cant tell from the pictures posted on the casting changes (which is so minor)
but did you guys upgrade the zo6 MH3 to ZRI specs or is this the actual ZR1 MH3. And are you going with the different dia. half shafts depending on your final rear weight and battery placement.
Awesome concept.

We weren't lucky enough to get ZR-1 suspension but Z06 is still pretty beefy. The half shafts will be custom made with a lifetime can't break warranty from our vendor. We used them on our 69 camaro last year that was a top 5 SMOY car. We are designing battery and fuel tank next. I have a new set of scales on order to get this one right.

Thanks
Mike

Mike, what's the background on the body you're using?

BTW- I sent you a PM a couple of days ago.
Im not sure who your vendor is, but if you get a chance talk to Rodney or TJ at RPM transmissions and also look at Driveshaft Shop Inc. on the axles. The combined combination is top notch.
How did you get your hands on that supercharged LS3 and what can i ask what it set u back$$$$ I have a friend of mine whos been looking, no luck yet and he may have to start from scratch.
