The C2 Corvette project is finally wrapped up. This one definitely snowballed along the way. We ended up touching just about every part of the car.
Starting with the wiring, we installed a complete American Autowire chassis harness, replacing and updating every wire in the car. The interior received new seats, door panels, center console, power windows, steering column and wheel. We also added Dakota Digital RTX gauges, Vintage Air HVAC, and a retro-style radio head unit. The cockpit is now set up for both comfort and function, with modern upgrades throughout.
Under the hood, the original 350ci small block was replaced with a BluePrint 427ci LS, backed by a McLeod RST clutch and TKX transmission. Custom-built headers and a side-pipe exhaust from BBE give this car a unique sound and an aggressive look. The differential was upgraded with new gears, a locker, and the correct driveshaft to handle the added power.
We also upgraded the braking system with HydroBoost and Wilwood calipers, along with a new cooling system, serpentine drive setup, and fuel system. Countless other parts were updated along the way.
With just under 500 RWHP and a manual shifter in your right hand, this little rocket ship is an absolute riot to drive, guaranteed to put a smile on your face every time you get behind the wheel.
We’re looking forward to seeing it out at some shows this year.
