It’s on the lift right now because we are fitting an air-ride suspension to it so the front end of the car can be raised when pulling in to parking lots and driveways. I was wondering if anyone else had done something similar. Anyway here are few pics of the car.

 

Is that a Callaway body kit? Post some engine shots please!

 

Needs a bigger exhaust...looks puny.

 

The body was designed by John Lingenfelter using a GM wind tunnel. I'll see if I can get our photographer to go back to the engineering building with me and take some under hood pics.

 

Nice ride. LPE does some awesome stuff, though I've heard their shop is a bit of a joke haha.

I've never seen anyone go with an air ride setup on a 'vette. You can check out ls1tech.com if you need any info on that. There might be somebody over there thats been through it before.

 

that body bit is fugly ! sorry , looks better stcok ... but can we see some engine pics ?

 

Ferrari 550 Headlights??? Look very similar.

 

^^^Yeah they do...i was thinking the same thing.

I want those tail lights though.

 

My friends F50 demonstrated the ability to raise the front for "scrape prevention" I do not know if it is an air kit or not.

As for the vette this is a first for me seeing this applied to a corvette. What kind of motor work and TT is it. Do you know what he will put to the ground (rwhp)?

And the body kit is my humble opinion less than desirable.

Thanks for sharing

 

I dont like it.....

 

I like the sides and the rear, but not sure about the front bumper.

Regarding the air suspension set up. I would check out corvetteforum.com.

 

needs these!!!

(my dad's 92) w/ baer 6psiton front/ 6 piston rear

 

Details on the motor/turbos?

 

If I were to guess, it's a sleeved LS6 block @ 427CI.

For what it's worth, the car and body kit look MUCH better with the car on the ground. I agree it looks a little funky up on the lift.

Headlights are just LPE designed, nothing special there.

Turbos are either T28s, or GT30s. Not exactly sure there, could also be different. They have a variety of packages/power levels if I recall.

 

With that body kit and twin turbos, it should be capable of well over 200mph.
