Car History
My Chevrolet Corvette C5 Convertible was registered new in Florida in March 2001 and was imported into the UK in June 2004. The LS1 V8 engine is quite potent producing 350 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque as standard. Race preparation has included fitting a Breathless Performance Vortex Power Duct and Ram Air Induction System, Hypertech Engine Performance Programme, Free Flow Cats, and upgraded Z06 ventilated, drilled and grooved disc brakes. Due to safety requirements I have also installed a five point roll cage.
