Vode An Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 (edited) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4b25EOjKPQ Switch to HD for better quality, the windshield is a bit dirty too. Took 4 months to build the first time, then decided to move the engine back 3 inches and down 1 inch, which took 1 month to do with the help of 2 of my friends. I hope this inspires thers to finish their swaps, this car is an absolute blast to drive! My next plans are to build a twin turbo C6 Corvette so this will go up for sale once I button a few things up. Here are some technical details for anyone interested, easier then pausing the video.

Domzs Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Looking good . Any photos of the build ? I recently purchased a wrecked 02 Z28 . Debating to which car , 91 ZX or 78 Z , gets the V8 swap . I did this swap on my 83 ZX 2 yrs. ago . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey303LSZ Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Nice video! Thanks for sharing. Now I'm stoked to get my 240 running... Funny to see you want to build a C6. I had a 2006 C6 for 3 years - I upgraded it with CNC ported heads, cam etc. and finally a supercharger. Sold it to my bro-in-law and bought a C6 Z06. Still have the Z06 (stock) and now I'm building the 240. I'm interested to see how the 240 compares to the C6 base and Z06. Could you post a few photos of the turbo setup? I'd love to do the same once I get mine running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dts300z Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 (edited) Would love to see some pics of the build! I'm in the process of rebuilding mine for the 5th time around. Going with the 4.8L this time. Edited November 8, 2012 by dts300z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
