2005 - Chevrolet Corvette on 2040-cars
Damascus, Virginia, United States
Up for sale a beautiful, highly upgraded 2005 Chevrolet Corvette that just passed 60k miles. I bought this car in TX a few years back and have loved every minute of driving it. Sadly the AF has moved me out to CA and due to the performance upgrades I can't register it here. Since the registration from SC is going to run out soon, I am forced to part with it. Your chance to get a great car with a lot of awesome work done to it. This car is fully loaded with just about every option, at the bottom of the listing I’ll include the codes and associated options so you can see exactly what it has. Upgrades to this car include the following: Full rework of the clutch and clutch system including: Tick & Monster Complete Clutch Swap Package ($1250) http://www.tickperformance.com/tick-monster-complete-clutch-swap-package-05-08-co rvette-z06/ This clutch is fully adjustable to your preference and bleeding the entire system is now super easy because I have installed a remote bleeder line. All the hydraulic lines are now braided stainless (far better them GMs rubber hoses) and routed far away from the exhaust heat. Nothing to worry about with your clutch again. All new exhaust system from block to tips including: Melrose Motorsports LS2 Corvette Header system ($1600) http://www.melrosecorvette.com/2005-2007-ls2-corvette-header-system/ LG Motorsports GT4 cat-back muffler kit ($1000) http://www.lgmotorsports.com/product_info.php?cPath=343_435&products_id=2070 Here’s the deal with this exhaust, I got a good deal on the LG mufflers so I thought I would try them. Personally, they are too loud for me and there is some drone between about 1800 and 2500 RPM. I bought a lightly used Z06 exhaust that I was planning on swapping out but have just run out of time and now am deploying soon. Let me know if you would like me to include the Z06 exhaust (worth a few hundred at least) or even have it swapped out prior to having the car sent to you. Suspension and chassis work to include: Replacing sway bars, shocks and mono leafs with almost new OEM Z51 components and lowering the car appx 1” ($500). A new heat-shielded tunnel brace ($120). The car is much stiffer, the tunnel brace controls the body and frame flex and also shields the interior from the exhaust heat. Overall the car rides much better, has tighter control with less roll and sway in the turns. All new intake system including: Vararam VR-SC1 Gen2 SnakeCharmer cold air intake ($300) http://www.vararam.com/sc1.html I had both the throttle body and intake plenum bored and polished ($300) New spark plugs and MSD Super Conductor wires ($150) New Duralast Gold Battery ($140) http://www.autozone.com/autozone/parts/Duralast-Gold-Battery/2005-Chevrolet-Corve tte/_/N-jmmnqZacy27?itemIdentifier=21878_817422_0_ I also sent the ECU out for tuning to take advantage of the new airflow and increase throttle response and performance. They also programmed out the 1-4 skip-shift so now you get to decide what gear you want to be in, not the car. ($150) Interior: Sound and heat deadening throughout entire cabin ($400) This greatly reduces the heat soak into the cabin and makes it where you don’t need to run your AC just to make a drive livable. No more hot drinks in the cup holders! Hydrocarbon wrapped center console finished in 2008 GM Hydrocarbon ($300) http://www.performancecorvettes.com/products/Carbon-Fiber-Corvette-Radio-Center-C onsole-for-C6-Corvette.html Matching carbon fiber door release bezels ($140) http://www.performancecorvettes.com/products/Corvette-C6-Carbon-Fiber-Door-Releas e-Bezels.html Pioneer DVD/Navigation system ($200) Again, only selling this car because the AF moved me to CA and can’t register it here and I’m being deployed out before too long. I need to sell it relatively soon and this is a great chance for you to get a car with all the work done and at a deep discount to you. This car has always been smoke and pet free. There are some smell scratches and scuffs here and there which I have close up pics of and can send your way. Right now one of the TPMS is reading zero so I’ll take it to the dealership this week to have it checked out, I’m suspecting it needs to be re-calibrated. I have over 80 pictures of the car and it’s easy for me to take more of anything requested. Just let me know what you would like. Please contact me with any questions you have, I’m working evenings this weekend but will find time to talk with you about any questions you have. Included: CarCraft Custom fit cover ($200) 2 Keyless remotes and keys Shipping: I realize that the buyer will most likely be outside of CA and as such I will drive the car up to 2 hours (ie Reno, NV) Even if you decide to have the car shipped I could drop it off in NV to save some on shipping costs. Contact me and we can work out any details. Payment: Paypal works great for deposits, we can work out the details on the paymmethod, but money orders or cashier’s checks would be the easiest. Clear SC Title. No Salvage History. No Rebuilt History. No Flood Damage. No Liens.

2023 Chevrolet Silverado HD reportedly getting mammoth torque
Wed, Sep 15 2021Chevrolet just gave the light-duty Silverado a significant round of updates. It hasn't detailed the changes it has in store for the heavy-duty model yet, but a recent report claims the truck will arrive with significant engine upgrades. Without citing sources, website TFL Truck reported that the current pickup's 6.6-liter Duramax turbodiesel V8 will return in the updated model. Its displacement won't increase, but its output will reportedly grow to 505 horsepower and a mammoth 1,085 pound-feet of torque. To put those figures into perspective, the 6.6-liter makes 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of twist in the 2022 Silverado HD; GMC's Sierra HD is available with it as well. Bumping the Duramax's output is a way to keep up with the competition. Arch nemesis Ford offers buyers who have extremely heavy things to tow 475 horsepower and 1,050 pound-feet of torque from a 6.7-liter turbodiesel V8. Over at Ram, the most powerful engine available in a heavy-duty truck posts numbers of 420 and 1,075, respectively. If the report is accurate, Chevrolet will enviably take the horsepower and the torque crowns in the segment. What remains to be seen is what effect the increases will have on the Silverado's towing capacity. As of writing, it's capable of towing up to 36,000 pounds (approximately 15 times the weight of a 2021 Mazda MX-5 Miata). Moving out of the engine bay, the 2023 Silverado HD will receive an updated exterior design that will again help differentiate it from the smaller, light-duty model. We're expecting the next round of updates will also bring new tech features, and it's reasonable to assume that the trim structure will evolve; Chevrolet might notably shift the HD in a more outdoorsy direction to satisfy a growing demand for off-road-focused trucks in the United States. None of this is official; Chevrolet is keeping its lips sealed about the updated Silverado HD. Full details will likely emerge in the coming months, and sales are tentatively scheduled to start in time for the 2023 model year.
2017 Honda Ridgeline enters the landscape block war
Sun, Jun 12 2016In the test of pickup truck beds, if steel is apples and aluminum is oranges, Honda wants you to know that composites are pineapples. Chevy recently performed a test in which its own Silverado was pitted against its most obvious competitor, the Ford F-150. A loader dropped over 800 pounds of landscaping blocks into the two truck beds, and Ford's aluminum bed ended up with more damage than Chevy's steel bed. Check that test out right here. Honda apparently wasn't content to let Chevy throw stones alone. In a new test, the Japanese automaker replicated the block-drop test using its brand-new Ridgeline truck, which features a composite bed. As you'll see in the video above, there was very little damage to the high-strength plastic bed of the Ridgeline after a similar load of landscaping blocks were dropped from a loader. Without being on hand at any of these tests, we can't say with any degree of certainty that they match up in severity. But they all look pretty similar, and this is actually a test that Honda performed in front of journalists ( ourselves included) earlier this year. We visually inspected the composite bed of a Ridgeline after a demonstration just like the one on video above, and can confirm that there was basically no damage to Honda's truck. Chevy went an extra step by flinging a heavy toolbox into the Silverado and F-150; Honda didn't match that particular test. Does any of this matter? That's up to truck buyers and owners to decide, naturally, but we doubt anyone would actually dump a load like this into their own truck. And it's also worth noting that a heavy-duty spray-on bedliner would probably minimize damage to the metal surface below, whether steel or aluminum. If nothing else, it's memorable marketing.

Ford also working on 200-mile EV to compete with Bolt, Model 3
Fri, Mar 6 2015The Chevrolet Bolt is on a lot of people's radars. You may have even noticed friends and colleagues who harbor very little interest in the automotive world, or anything labeled as "green," who have taken notice of a 200-mile electric vehicle coming out of Detroit. Mass appeal is the idea, after all. You can include Ford in the list of interested parties, in this case with the intention of taking direct aim at the Bolt and, by proxy, the Tesla Model 3 with an affordable, long-range EV of its own. Ford will unveil its own long-range EV, positioned to compete with Chevrolet, later this year, according to Automobile. Details are very scarce about Ford's plans, but we do know that the Bolt (or whatever the Chevy all-electric hatchback will end up being called) is expected to offer over 200 miles of driving between charges, with a sticker price around $30,000. The other major player, of course, is Tesla's smaller, more affordable sibling to the Model S. The Model 3, also slated to go on sale in 2017, should cost less than $40,000. While Tesla has established itself in the EV world, another long-range EV out of Detroit would win some customers from the California-based startup. For now, though, we'll just have to wait, as Ford remains tight-lipped about its plans for the car. Automobile predicts a possible unveiling at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, what with California's EV mandate being a driver of strategy for various automakers. Most can agree, though, that a larger field of options while not ideal for backers of the Bolt or Model 3 will only benefit the car-buying public.
