Default Just bought a Callaway!

Well expanding my horizons in the vette world, just bought a Callaway twin turbo...#33 of 184! It needs some love but a rare bird!

So what types of TLC does a car like this need? I mean, if a turbo goes out or a wastegate needs to be adjusted, what do you do? Is the motor a stock LT5 or are the heads/cams/intake different? How much boost does this baby churn out. I took a look on Wikipedia and it states they made 450hp and 615TQ ! Is this accurate?

Sounds like a very fun new toy!!!

This is an 87 they were 345hp and about 475lbft if I recall......it needs paint, clear peel is bad, and needs interior....it also has a 4+3 and OD is not engaging, could be a simple fix or might need to be rebuilt. motor is great and no damage to body!

Looks like a stock 87 with NACA ducts on the front

I will repair the tranny and do the interior, will need to wait for paint.

Bottom line 1 of 184 produced, its going to be woth some decent cash...this was a GM option.
