I keep hearing continued rumours about Callaway coming back. Any facts to this? Not sure why I'd go with them vs. LPE's deep experience with the C5.

Yes, but if you're scared to drive a sportscar hard, what's the point? Might buy an exotic for around town, but a mod'd Z06 is the only way I'd go for serious reliable power/resale/maintenance.

Nice to see the shop that installed the Nitrous pointing fingers and taking zero responsibility.

Black makes me drive aggressive and evil.

Hard to keep clean also, not to mention swirls.

Best color for custom wheels for sure.

These motors sound much better with a hot exhaust than a cold one. Def need to warm up the pipes first. Cold C5's sounded awful.

Porting the bowls, increasing the chamber cc size.

I'm guessing LPE is looking at porting out the LS7 heads to lower the LS7 compression ratio.

7psi is a lot on a 427 and at the limit for street traction.

Z06 Pilot Sports vs. Runflats

Anyone planning to ditch their runflats pronto?

What are the options?
I think Pilot Sports were the only tire size match last time I checked.
