Finished up Turbo 402 LS 96 Vette

MeanYellowZ · 07-01-2009, 12:16 AM

Pretty much wrapped up the engine on the 96 Collectors edition vette I have been working on (too long.) Forged 402 iron block with a T6 88mm turbo. All work done by me in my garage including 1/8" thick custom Stainless exhaust "manifolds." Just had it dyno'd at SpeedINC the other day (thanks guys) in the heat and ended up with 847 RWHP

A few shots of the car:

This is a car I have always wanted to build. Good luck, looks killer.

love the C4's, Beautiful, the Dyno on race gas or pump gas? I wouldn't be surprised for pump gas. buddy of mine has one (same colour) with a 434 SBC on spray, does low 9's...street car.

bad ass! great job.

MeanYellowZ · 07-01-2009, 10:29 AM

Thanks guys. This hasn't made it to the track yet, should this Friday for the first passes. It has logged about 400 street miles though, including a few interstate trips to car shows. Car drives overall pretty well....small cam...small gears
