Default "FBI" News FLASH: New 441 LT5 fire up!

Yesterday, the long winter project in Pete's skunkworks garage culminated in the fire up of FBI member Kevin's newly built 441 ci LT5.

Pete can fill in the details, but for the gentle reader, it is a closed deck, billet stroker crank, billet custom cams, big valves, and many more goodies, yet it idles relatively smooth for an engine that should put out way north of 650 (NA) hp, once tuned. (Eat your hearts out LS7 and 9s!)

Pete, like a proud father does the honors and turns the key. Fantastic job Pete!!

No telling what the horsepower this monster will be making, but turn up the sound and you can FEEEL this beast's heart beating!! Awesome car! Fabulous work Pete n Bob G and all!

Kevin...We all wish we had your car and you had a feather in your underwear...We'd ALL be tickled!!!

Did you get proper security clearance to disclose your findings from Area 51?

What a sound! I can't let mine hear that, it would be jealous.

Congratulations and I hope the tuning goes well.

Thanks guys.
Lets not forget this Z has an automatic trans.

If all goes well you will see this Z at BG,needs some tuning and some break in miles.

Hey it's only a lil 441 ci
The great part is like Paul said it's still pretty docile for the cams it has.
There is one more 441 w/m6 here locally.
I was hoping to have both 441's at BG with the 427 and my lil wimpy 350ci then we would have a row of 10 second cars
