 ***PERFECT PROJECT CAR, SUMMER IS COMING!!! (Please read full description)***

1989 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z with a ZZ4 crate motor and Vortech Supercharger.  ZZ4 is a 5.7L / 350ci V8 rated at 355hp / 405tq.  Engine is blown, most likely a cracked piston.  You can either rebuild it or just swap in a different motor, maybe a crate motor or an LS1.  Upgraded Tuned Port Injection (TPI) with 52mm throttle body (TB), Accel Super Ram intake manifold and SLP TPI runners.  SLP stainless steel 1 5/8 jet coated headers with 3'' catco cat into 3'' Hooker Aerochamber cat back going into stainless steel 4th generation Camaro Z28 exhaust tips.  6 speed manual (T56 out of a '95 Trans Am) with 3.73 posi rear end.  17x8 SLP ZR1 style 5 star aluminum wheels.  Spohn subframe connectors. 

Car is white, was repainted in 2003.  Front bumper has cracked paint that needs fixing, rest of paint needs some brightening: a good professional detail with buffing and polishing.  Another option would be to Plasti Dip the whole car.

Interior is mostly converted to black, it was originally red out of the factor.  Seats are out of a '95 Trans Am, were reupholstered with new black leather in 2004.  New black carpets, headliner, door panels, etc.  There are a few pieces that are still red like some of the plastic molding and seat belts, I have a huge box of black pieces to the winning bidder with the car so converting from red to black can be completed.

I really do not want to sell this car but I don't have the time or a place to keep it at this point.  If I could keep it, I'd swap in a new crate motor or an LS1/LS2, get the paint fixed on the front bumper, get the car professionally detailed (buffed and polished) and it will be a sweet ride again.  Would also consider Plasti Dipping the whole car instead of painting.  Car puts out tons of power when it is running with this setup and handles great!  Will be very sorry to see it go.

GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.

Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
