I know they have been relatively soft the last couple of years,but recentely the ZL1 C5R versions have been under accumilation by one collector was is rumoured to have several(20+)in his collection.Haven't seen any GMMG phase III car for sale in quite some time.

Supercomp with all due respect there is no way these cars will go that fast without serious modifications to the engine, drivetrain and suspension/traction. I owned the #47 car ( phase 3 ) and my Berger Hot Rod is a phase 3. These cars are cool, fast and look good too but definately not as fast as your brother went without serious modifications. Don't be offended just setting the record straight.

I too have wondered about this 10 second stuff so today I did a little research. Yes, several of the 427's have gotten into the 10's. I saw a picture of an A4 today that ran 10.94 with ET streets and GMMG ZL1 front tires. Also, Matt Murphy has a picture of another one, M6 I believe, on his office wall that ran in the 10's comlete with the time slip.

According to Mike and Ron, the guys who built most if not all of them, they will run mid 11's all day on street tires. Of course with the M6 it takes a good driver to get the really quick ET's.

I am a little surprised because I didn't put much credence into the 10's talk. Now I do!

Supercomp, I think you are vindicated.

Uhhh...seems like Christensen was just running mid 11s @ around 120 at SCR5 *on stickies*...and he made a bajillion passes and was running the horse-piss outta the car. The "10.90" ET above I could see with work, but I'm not buying that 136 trap speed...

These cars should have no problems running in the 10s with the 427 motors. My friends 01 WS6 Trans Am(running at full weight) ran an 11.7 at 114. Car had a stock 346 c.i. LS1 short block, cnc'ed ls6 heads, comp 224/230 cam, 3800 stall, 3.73s, lower control arms and a set of mickey thompson e.t. streets. It was built by Mike and Ron at Vengeance Racing. They were the guys that built the Dick Harrell/ZL1 cars for GMMG. It dynoed a little over 400 to the tires. The automatic phase III ZL1s shouldn't have any problems getting into the tens. With the 6 speed cars, its up to the driver/traction. A little side note here, Ron and Mike are squeazing 500 rwhp out of stock ls1 short blocks now. They posted up a thread on ls1 tech a while back of an 02 SS with a 6 speed putting down 503 rwhp with heads, cam fast 90/90 setup, bigger injectors and a tune.

The mph I heard today was around 110 or was it 115. Don't recall but I'll find out next week.
Ron and Mike know what they are doing. That's why I've trusted them to rebuild my ZL1. Too bad I didn't use them to build my 427. I might have had a car that would actually run! Idiot!!
