    American V8 Swaps into Lexus?

    i'm bumping this because i'm curious and also find half of this thread funny with all of this "why have 1 cam when you can have 4" bullshit. seems to me that many people are ignorant to the fact that the pushrod design is newer than the overhead cam design. oops. lol. so, has anyone attempted...

    no, not really. not to mention you dont know how much it cost them to get eaton to design a new blower, now do you? who says a whipple would have been more expensive? you have NO idea... just throwing out baseless statements. if you'd actually read an article about this car, it wasnt even...

    2009 Corvette ZR1 620 bhp

    exactly your point? what? not to mention the eaton is a brand new design used exclusively on the ZR1, so you cant compare it to the other OEM eatons on the market. and yes, you're right. your bias shows. next thing you'll bitch about is the interior, right?

MOST cars have just a resonator there but mine is a texas car and it has a cat instead... our emissions laws are pretty lax too so its weird...

    Brakes, wheels and tires Commensurate with the ZR1’s engine output is the braking system, which is headlined by carbon-ceramic brake rotors. Found on only a few exotics and more expensive supercars, carbon-ceramic brake rotors are made of a carbon-fiber-reinforced ceramic silicon carbide...
