I was hoping to not have to do this, but looks like I might need to start figuring out a way to supercharge the 90. Getting hard to keep up with the Jones

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

I think a 385 would do the trick NA.

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

You guys know they are now getting 550hp out of the 5.0 Coyote motor....NA.

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

a 385 is only kicking out 565, so no. A mild 415 is only 600...

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

just sell your fleet and buy the 2015 Z06

you can only drive one at a time

Ford knows the power of a OH 4 cam engine.

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

wow, impressive torque #s

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

...... that torque will walk a hefty 385.

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

So Frank, your weapon of choice would be 441 or 427?

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

I think an entire Mustang GT might be cheaper than a 415 build. It's just a Ford-they park outside just fine :-D (that's where mine is).

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

441 & 427 LT5 will have a tough time against that FI car. Big fat torque curve is the killer on a C7 ZO6. And that C7's a bone stocker !

Well boys.....our cars are 25 years old. The only thing I can leave you with is....."Old age & treachery will always overcome youth & skill", so, we have to become "Bushwakers"!

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

I got to see the car early Saturday morning, before the show opened to the public. Very nice indeed. There will be three stages of aero packages for the car. The cars at the show are the Stage 3, with the full aero package and carbon ceramic brakes. You can only get the brakes with Stage 3.

It will be interesting to see the other packages. My feeling is that the Stage 3 will not be the top seller. Only the truly dedicated track rats will need it. Most people will probably select Stages 1 or 2.

A little boost never hurts!

Re: NAIAS C7 Z06 Reveal
 

I agree, stock displacement with some boost can conquer anything. Fight fire with fire, fighting forced induction with cubes, is a battle of frustration at best.
