2001 v-10 just shy of 200k miles. extras: banks headers, redhead steering box, accel coils, f-350 rough country 4" lift w steering stabilizer, 17" wheels, mile marker hubs, 37" dick cepek fun country, 2 sets of led fogs and 6" bar tied to high beams, hid's, big mirrors, clear headlights, grill, kenwood head unit w back up cam, fosgate replacement coax's, ultra gauge, weather tech mats, all interior leds, fosgate powered 12" sub, 5 star tuned..on my to do list are bushwacker oe fender flares to cover the 37's a little better and a 2015 bumper to replace the stocker.

 

 

Looks sharp. What gears do you have?

 

Where in OH-10 are you located?

Looks nice.

 

She's got 373 gears. Still on the fence about changing them out. I don't tow much and the get up and go...well its a huge truck. Idk if it's worth the cost. Still considering that. I'm outside of toledo in woodville ohio.

 

I like! Another great looking white shark.

 

Sweet Excursion! I like that fixed roof coupe thing in the garage also!

 

Nice Ex, congrats..

 

ZO6 correct?

 

For a few years they were just the frc, then they became the z06. It's my favorite c5 either way.

 

Good looking truck I like the set up u have

 

Thanks guys. The car is a 99 frc. 408 stroker, trick flow heads, fast intake mani, interior,suspension, wheels, brakes...everything has been worked over on it. It's a fun car for sure.

 

First thing I think when I see big tires, especially on a gas rig.

Yeah, It is a huge truck and I'm sure that the get up and go is a little lacking with an effective 3.18 gear ratio when that V-10 would really like an effective 4.30 gear ratio!

OK, not just a C5 Vette but a hot rodded C5 Vette, so we know you like "Sporty" wheels for sure. That huge truck of yours with the 37" tires NEEDS new gears! I can't imagine how sluggish it must feel with a 3.18 gear ratio, in my humble opinion it would be well worth the cost to gear that great looking EX. The perfect gears for 37"s would be 5.13s that would give an effective ratio of 4.37, almost exactly the same as what I am turning and the V-10 loves that ratio. But since you say that it doesn't tow you may only want to run 4.88 gears to get to an effective ratio of 4.15 which would make a massive improvement in drivability and still preserve decent (for a lifted big tire V-10 EX ) MPG.
You've already got the headers and tunes, now finish up the drivetrain and get the right gears to get the best performance out of that sweet rig!
You will want 5Star to tweek the tunes after the gear swap for optimal results.

 

Love the color!


What did you do to that poor birch tree?

 

Bonzai....
