Hi everybody! I'm Matt and I'm new to the forums. I'm part of EFI Alchemy in Jacksonville. We specialize in LSx tuning and building. I don't own a corvette, yet... I have a 2000 Z28 and love it to death but would love to have a C6 as a daily driver. One of the other guys in the shop has a 99 FRC and is currently building a single 76mm turbo setup with a 6lt iron block. His goal is to make it a 9sec daily driver.
 
:welcome:to the Forum. There's alot of really nice decent folks here. A 9 second daily driver is quite a project. Show pics please as you proceed with this car. I hope you will find the C6 you want soon. There's alot of good deals out there. Don't be afaraid to ask on the Forum either. :thumbsup:
 
:welcome::wavey:

I had a 2000 Z28 Convertible a few years ago.

Great car and when done properly, quite a looker:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Lets see some pics:thumbsup:
 
Welcome! :welcome:

Yeah, a 9 second daily driver would be interesting. Really stiff gearing would help, but it would be a bear on gas mileage... No guarantees that we won't see $4 per gallon in the future.

Hope you find that C6 you are looking for. I think the deals are out there if you just have patience and wait for exactly what you want.
 
Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone! Im going to be taking some pics of the progress on the turbo vette soon. Ill start a new thread when I have them.

Awesome. We would love to have you come by. Always good times here. We are a few miles south of Wells road. I don't think its also called Roosevelt but I could be wrong. US-1 has 10000 different names depending on where you are. I wish they could just stick with one name.

Googe Maps link to our location.

Kinda curiuos though. Why not the LSX block? I mean it's suppose to take up to 2500, HP is it not? Nearly bullet proff bottom end, , right?

Yes the LSx block would be a dream to have but, the LSx Block is 3k + machining and we got the 6.0 for like $50. Price was right and we can achieve the same results.
