I know I've said it before but the best thing about Sunday morning on Corvette Forum is the Furman delivery and throwback pics thread. It's just true. Thanks Mike.

Just another busy delivery week! Always like seeing the different builds your customers select-lots of great choices!
I will go with the '61 Vette at the Vineyard! Red, red interior, white cove-my favorite combo!
See you at Carlisle!

Mike, How come some of your deliveries have body colored boomerangs but the front low vents are black ? I thought the option makes the boomerangs, front and rear vents body colored ?

Like Mike’s observation that “the ZO6 is a race car with license plates”.
I have a curious question regarding this whole craziness coming for the C8ZO6…… with presumably such limited availability for the foreseeable future, why have there been no discussions on the various Corvette forums about a Callaway offering of a supercharged C8, considering their active involvement for past Corvette generations?
And, with the Lingenfelter Cunningham limited edition commemorative C8 naturally aspirated C8 putting out 600 horsepower, you would think that there would be much bantering to offer that option to the masses who cannot get their hands on a factory C8ZO6.
You would think that would be a great business opportunity right there for Callaway and Lingenfelter.

Interestingly enough, just got this, this morning in my email box. While not supercharged, the link ontheir site does show some things which presumably add power/performance, and allow one to keep their warranty.

Interesting indeed.
Wonder why Callaway would have a previous C7 generation supercharged Corvette at Carlisle, but not introduce a supercharged iteration of the C8.
The Lingenfelter Cunningham, which will I believe will also be at Carlisle, actually squeezes out an additional 105 HP going with naturally aspirated performance options……to 600 HP.
I think they add a tune and a carbon fiber manifold plenum, among other additions.
I don’t know IF they even offer that package as an aftermarket add-on for those who already have their C8’s, or IF they are going to just make those options available for their 33 Cunningham Special Edition Commemorative C8’s.

There is no calibration access outside of GM. So no tune, as you mentioned
The only company said to be getting access, in last report a few weeks ago, was Callaway. I’d expect to see positive manifold pressure at some point, but their own timeline suggested it’s still a thing down the road (July interview).
Regarding 600 hp from the parts listed, we’ll see...
