This pretty much says it all. Who knows what is in store for the LT1. This thing could be a ticking time bomb like the LS7's. Putting a blower on a yet to be proven engine "lt1" c7 could be a mistake.

Hennessey doesn't have the best of a reputation. I'd stick with Callaway or Lingenfelter.

Win/win.
If I missed it the other factor to consider is the always subjective styling. For me the ZR1 has it all out of the box, the 7 with a great Callaway set up would still lack in curb appeal to me.
As I said win/win, do what works for you. And as someone said earlier, you won't need any money for extras on a ZR.

I've owned two of them, I don't show them too much, but they've never failed to draw a crowd. AND, they're rarer then hens teeth, so naturally they get a lot of attention.

The LS7 is far from a ticking time bomb...still I'd suggest Callaway as they warranty their products and have a fine reputation that they will stand behind their products.
Of course waiting for the January release of the c7 z06 might be of interest at the Detroit auto show in 2014.
If you don't want to wait...I am sure the Callaway will be a fine product as in the past.

Our 170,000+ mile 2010 Callaway SC606 Corvette Grand Sport has certainly proved our performance. 10.8 @ 128 in the 1/4 mi., then driven home over 200 miles from the track, numerous road courses, and she is still going, and going...
