Like Glen Said, it's got some top end work from the vette doctors including Jeal cams, then Watson's, 4:09's, Dewitts Radiator, RW thrermostat, I did coilovers from Rippie, Samco hoses, triple take, coolant to plenum delete mod that I did...I guess about everything you can do to a stock displacement car. It puts down 410hp. On safety stuff it has a rollbar and turquoise harnesses from M&R that are very  .

Wow, that is a great speed! Was it downhill with a tail wind? JK

At the Las Vegas Mile Shootout (hot temps)
similarly modded Z's were doing about 166.
My car with similar mods except stock cams did ~163mph.
The bad news is that at speeds over 168 you would fall into the next
bracket and need more safety equipment.
Some rush, huh?
Congrats again,
