Happy Holidays to the RPM fam. Much love and respect all the way from Los Angeles.

[@mitchmerle5774]

I had a C 6 Z and really liked it ( it was Cyber Grey too). I now have a C 7 Z -2017 and I love this car twice as much. The acceleration factor never gets old!

[@cbutler114]

I’ve loved corvettes since I was a kid (thanks to Dad being a corvette tec) but You guys re ignited my love of corvettes from watching your videos and I finally bought my first one (c6 ls2 z51) the day before thanksgiving 🎉 can’t wait till spring when I can break her out for the spring/summer season, keep doing what you guys do!!!

[@stevedean8529]

Fran, in the video you mention an aftermarket short block with your head/cam package could have up to one point less compression than a stock block. With the Texas Speed short block that was installed, could the deck be milled a few thousandths to gain the compression point back if the customer does not plan to modify any further or would this be an issue? if milling the deck is not the answer, what could be done to address the loss of compression with a Texas Speed aftermarket short block that would not be catastrophic?

[@josephfamularo469]

C6z is one of the best N/A platforms ever built, especially at its current price point. Under 50k for a million smiles.

[@andredillard2332]

😂😂😂😂amazing vlog I hope yall get a million subscribers I like watching yall videos it is very entertaining & interesting to me & one of my favorite cars is a corvette I love corvettes hopefully I can get one one day & get it to u guys

[@johnmarshjr928]

Yep it’s just the right amount of power, super fun and now reliable.

[@smoo215]

Dang. Glad yall got them back on the road. Exactly why I got a set of heads off you guys and did my ones. Thing runs like a proper champ afterwards.

[@johnmarshjr928]

I love to occasionally wake my neighbors, they know it’s gonna be a nice day. Now that it’s 18 or so in the morning , I quietly slip out in the Chevy spark 😂, at least it’s a stick, w 16’s on it !

[@kwiksimp5341]

U said comment, so here we go…..love the page!! I watch you guys to learn. Question: I have a C6 G 29:19 rand Sport , manual. I had engine drama so it’s now a 416” stroker with BTR stage 2 cam and Texas Speed ported heads. Everything else is factory. What mods would YOU do?

[@LarryLoudPack204]

There heads cam package throttle body intake fuel system meth flex fuel sensor clutch injectors A&A kit a p3 gauge tune and a good tire make 950 maybe 1000

[@LarryLoudPack204]

And 2 inch headers

[@camarodreams7689]

Do you guys order the TSP engine or do you prefer another company over them? Say LME or TKM for example.

[@paisley2342]

LME for sure

[@camarodreams7689]

@paisley2342 why? What's the reasoning?

[@paisley2342]

@camarodreams7689 LME pumps tings out, good quality control. Tsp, not so much.

[@camarodreams7689]

@paisley2342 I'm asking because I ordered a TSP short block last week. Its the reaper 434ci short block. It uses a Dart block, Callies compstar crank, Callies I beam rods, Wiseco pistons. Other builders rating their motors similarly 1400hp/1500hp use the same stuff. Some use Diamond pistons. Literally everything LME is basically double the price.

[@chief3378]

You said that the compression was lowered by a point is that because he plans on doing more bolt on is the compression like 9 to 1 now ?

[@RogerLaPointe-v3m]

Just wondering, I live in Vermont if I purchased a c6 z06 Down your way could I have it shipped to your shop to have work done on it Heads, cam and headers then have you ship to me in Vermont.

[@chichb303]

Can't wait to do a DoD delete and cam swap on my Tahoe with you guys!

[@TheWolfMatt]

"Comment Something, write the alphabet, just something"...... lmao, love the fact that you guys were able to bring a beautiful Z back to life and still have a great sense of humor afterwards.

[@rlarson315]

Nice work bringing that C6Z back from the dead! Now, just think of what that car can be, unburdened by what has been?

[@44GTmustang]

Mf sounds nasty! Great work on the build. What are yall looking for in the tables when it struggles to hot start? My cammed LS3 is hit or miss on startup when its hot

[@joem1382]

Once i went heads and cam, I had hot start issue. You can wrap the starter in a heat blanket. I had changed a part and the hot start issue went away completely. Camshaft position sensor

[@randysaunders4247]

Nice build. Every time I take my Z06 out I worry about this happening too. Damn I need to call you guys. Wish you were closer. I'm in North Carolina.

What gain do you see with using e on the ls7?

[@nitrousstang]

Just pulled my stock heads at 105 k miles… gonna get valve guide clearance checked, I must be on borrowed time lol

[@scottconrad2719]

I would really like to know what compression ratio that motor ended up with?

[@markjones9809]

It's December now, so how many months behind are your videos?

[@vqchango6669]

So is the 7.0 short block not the same as the original ls7 that came factory?

[@jesseeurbaszewski965]

If sumone can tell me what is the difference really between the short block and the stock ls7 that comes in it witch would be better part for part

[@yorkenworthy]

Did it drop a valve? I didn’t se it in the rockers when you pulled the valve covers !!

[@TxHammer757]

I enjoy your channel. Maybe one day I will bring you a car

Just a little information to C6 Z06 owners. Once you go heads and cam, it takes over 100 wheel for a modern day weight car to beat you.

@Evil_Clown83 man lol that's what my original comment says. It says over 100 wheel.

[@joem1382]

@Evil_Clown83 all I said was that it would take over 100 wheel. That's cool if you want to go find the precise number. But as a former owner of a heads and cam Z06 worked on by RPM, I fully understand how deadly they are.
