Pretty decent gains so far is the new LT1 gonna be the replacement for the LS series?

look at you posting ls videos. you die hard euro lover.

helps assemble a forged ls motor, sees the internal gm beauty, simplicity and ingenuity. feels the wondrous torque and power it puts out. the power and ease of the tuning software. kitten like idle. yea its no surprise you've been converted. hard to admit.... but you can always still brag about the euro interior's quality

Sounds like the direct injection is really going to throw a curve ball at the head porters and cam selection. It will be a little bit before they really start to shine.

LOL Ryan, the interior quality IS way better ;)

Nice gains. BTW the rear end of the C7 is just as ugly in person as it is in the pictures/videos. There is a white one running around my hood down here, everything else looks damn nice though!

Visually I see a lot of potential, even with the tail lights. Going to take some massaging.

I saw a yellow one yesterday at Bob Browns. Looks more like a hot wheels car than a real car.

All you people hating on the rear ends of these cars. Yeah, cause a flat back with 4 round holes is soooooo eye appealing. Other than the bottom of the valence, it's money. Way better looking than the the previous 2 generations. Now, the front end is a different story. Personally, without emblems, I don't know if I'm looking at a Vette or a Viper.

You are one of the only people I have seen that said they liked the rear end, personally I think it all looks decent except for the tail lights, they went waaaayyyyy to far away from the traditional dual round/oval tail lights corvette's are known for. For me its just as bad as when they got rid of the large "humps" over the front wheels in '83.

Everybody is bitching because of how it used to look from the back. God forbid we change it. If it was a new car that just came out, you wouldn't here any bitching at all. For those that are bitching, fix it if it bothers you that much. http://www.c5racer.com/catalog/c7-corvette-2014/c7-stingray-exterior/c7-stingray-corvette-rear-bumper-wc6-corvette-round-taillights.html?gclid=CKnDro6Cn7oCFShp7Aod7RIAZQ

they went pretty radical with it, which always unsettles some people. Especially the Corvette purists' which are a collective group of boring. The name is perfect because when the original stingray came out it was and still is definitely a radical design.

I'm not in love with it, but I like it. And I agree with Colton that it has potential. Throw some massive mesh ventilation on the back and race car time.

How much different are these injectors? How soon before they hit a wall and need bigger ones?

They're really not "injectors". More in common with a diesel than your typical gasoline fuel system.

giant injectors and 23000 psi?

The owner has quite a stable of cars, and is well versed at the drag strip. Nice East Coast fall air helps too. He holds the 2nd quickest bone stock 2013-2014 GT500 time also, 11.3@128.
