That is one sweet 'Vette!

From what Ive read and seen, E85 isnt worth it on a NA car. The benifits show on forced induction cars where you can just crank up the boost. Id put the money elsewhere, like a cam and a tune.

Thanks Corey!

Nate - that is pretty much the consensus and I have driven it a few more times now and am pretty happy with the power and frankly, more power will just lead to a ticket sooner :unibrow: I haven't bothered to hook up to the computer and look for aggressive timing retard and am going to just leave it alone. Will only matter at WOT and considering it is my street fun car, WOT should be unnecessary 'cept a blast on a freeway on ramp here and there.

I have my 525HP road race car in my avatar and that is going to be my outlet when I have a need for speed and just keep this stock like I intended when I bought it :thumbsup:

down the road, after the warranty and so forth I will swap the cam, exhaust and intake stuff and bump it up to an easy 500+HP so I think I will go that route. It should be pretty straight forward to get 1.4HP/cube from a modern street combo which at 376 cubes = 526HP.

Normaly i am not always a fan of dark wheels but holy crap that is the best looking set up i have ever seen

Congrats on the IMPRESIVE toy

thanks - I am not a big dark nor solid wheel color fan either and typically only like black centers with polished lips at best, or regular old silver, etc. I saw the dark wheels on GMs site and thought no way, but when I saw this car in person and the fact the wheels are paint code matched to the body (not just dark gray, but actual body color) I thought the car looked great too.

Also the car reminded me of a story when I walked into the dealership - my dad ordered a new diesel Ford Escort back in 1984. When they asked him what paint color, he thought a bit, looked at the options and said, "They say you should pick a color that matches your personality... so I guess I'll take dark gray" :lol: Funniest look I have ever seen on a salesman's face. Gotta love that Midwest sarcastic sense of humor :thumbsup:
