It's not a Lingenfelter.

It's a Z06 with Head and Cam work. Still, very very impressive.

And to think, Commodores share that engine... :punchhead:

Add twin turbos and you've got a Lingenfelter ;)

not all lingenfelter corvettes are Twin Turbos. www.ligenfelter.com shows many packages for corvettes.

Sorry, my bad. Didn't realize they did tuning work also. Thought they just sold turbo Vettes. Nice :)

I first saw this a few mths ago on another forum, and the verdict was it wasn't a lingenfelter tuned vette. This was from a Lingenfelter owner, so I figured he knew what he was talking about.

Now I dunno.

I'm not 100% sure about Lingenfelter, but the Vette isnt a Z06 anyways, it is a coupe back and Z06 is hard top only... There was a Z51 badge on the side of the car, which I have been told is a Lingenfelter kit... who knows, but that Vette has definatly got some kick whatever it is... I know if a LS1 holden/HSV had simular work done to it, that might catch most of you T owners off guard abit :)

Unfortunatly some of you may not know John Lingenfelter passed away last xmas after a long battle in hospital from a serious motor racing accident. He not only made LS1's go chit quick but was a master tuner, a true genius to alot of vehicles.
