Autoblog reader Manuel was, well,
underwhelmed by our post
on the Geiger Z06. He pointed us in the direction of legendary Corvette power-guru John Lingenfelter if we were
interested in serious power for a Z06.
Although Lingenfelter Performance Engineering performs its magic on a
range of GM vehicles, as well as the occasional Viper, it’s best known as a Corvette shop, and its reputation is more
than justified.
If you give LPE a tidy $45,995 plus your Z06 Corvette for two or three months, you’ll get
back a fire-breathing balanced and blueprinted 427 cubic inch, 800-hp, twin-turbo monster, complete with dyno reports
and a 2 year/24,000 mile warranty. Yep, 800 hp. (The LPE website has a video of a twin-turbo C6 ‘Vette pulling over
1,000 hp in a dyno run.) Full details on the Z06 engine package here.
