They made more than 350. Thats what the tag said but when you dyno them you can tell that they make more than 350 st the crank thats why I believe he said what he said.
Literally has everything done on my C5 build list from the brakes, suspension and clutch toys lol. Keeping those pop up headlights keep that sleek look, so sick.
@@Teothe1nonly Just the right amount of power, love strong na engines! You ought to show matt farrah how to downshift properly! Any solution out there for the wheelhop?
I never looked up or knew the curb weight of a C5 Corvette but I do know a 2001 Mustang Gt coupe weighs 3,200 lbs so when I looked up and saw they both weigh the same that baffles me.
You can tell this was a review done by true car guys. Not one mention of the C5's dash that gets criticized by the posers. Who's looking at the radio buttons when you're doing 11-second passes? 😎
I've had at least one C4, C5, C6 and C7 (currently on my second C6 Z06) and the only one I actually miss, and REALLY miss, is my 2003 Z06. I know the interior was crap and all that but the car just felt so much more light and nimble than the C6 and C7 models (I've driven a C8 but just a few minutes). I did a mild build on my 2003, taking the LS6 up to 474whp, and it was the perfect daily driver. This one is a beauty. Stay safe everyone. Cheers from Florida.
What a fantastic car! Big kudos on a terrific build. Ride height? Perfect. Wheel offset? Perfect. Exhaust? Umm, what's better than perfect? It is *so* easy to get the exhaust wrong behind a 6.2. This, by far, is the best I've ever heard. I'll take this over a $$$$ Akropovic 100 times out of 100. My only gripe - if I may - is that the center stack deserves better than a universal-fit kit for the stereo. What a stunning machine!
I sincerely LOVE this build, it feels that guy make it from hart. Huge respect. Car got me in intro. You can not hide love and wisdom in this project, as much as you try to be modest.
Rear spoiler look GR8 . Min 7:30 Up shifting 1,2,3 Then back to 2nd. but before go to 2 nd got to rev the engine little more then go 2nd. Sounds awesome 😎
7:34 "It's pretty nasty I love it" This is the best description ever lol😂. I have a C5 Z51 6 speed I track and Teo has definitely taken it to the next level. Well done!!! You have transformed this car into a masterpiece ❤.
I had a ‘99 Trans Am with an LS1 and 6-speed and it was so fun to drive. I lost my license and had to get a workonly permit because I was always getting pulled over. They could hear me coming and get ready. Ahhh, good times.
Sick car well done getting 2nd gear my daughter just woke me up for a glass of milk handled that and now I get to watch this before I crash back out. This dude built that car right..
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! We need more corvettes on the channel! Their the most affordable fun N/A sports car. These cars are alot more achievable than some of the custom cars on this channel that are 100k plus dollars.
WOW this was great to watch. I got a C5 Z built similarly and I got to say this one's just as sweet or a little better than mine. Great Job!! And don't sell it any time soon cause you'll end up regretting it.
I'm still pumped and smiling from riding in this vetted since all new upgrades, its nasty😊 actually its hard to explain,it pulls like a 100cc bike! He tuned my truck and nailed it , great guy and would love to see ,the version of both on here again!
He's done so much more motor wise! This thing is absolutely nasty! The upgrades to horsepower is nutts ! Even the avalanche got major upgrades! He's also a incredible tuner! Made my c10 on point!
People can say what they want about C5 corvettes but for being a late 90s and early 2000s car they are quite timeless in my opinion. Such a sleek, powerful, and gorgeous car all around. And at a very fair price nowadays $10-12k for a nice one
man oh man... gotta love this vette! i can just imagine throwing a supercharger and a nice tune with wide ass tires at the rear... but man that thing is raw
That does it. I need a C5 in my life. I'm surprised those hard launches aren't hurting the transaxle. I've heard that's a weak point on these, or maybe it was the torque tube. These look so sleek with the hidden headlights. Better than C6 for sure.
I love the Porsche... but my next love is the Vette... disclaimer: when I was 21 I worked at Porsche dealership... I was the detailer .. and would execute pre pre delivery inspections... my true love is a ‘67 Chevelle convertible... SHAWN ANOTHER GREAT VID!!
@@trashbandit2449 i don't know about the electric cars but the media made enough people think that trump was racist and that covid was his fault or that he could of handled it better.
I’m a car guy through and through and a C5Z06 owner. This car is unbelievable and exactly as I would build mine. It would’ve been nice had you put the car on a track to show what it can do versus a bunch of clips hopping first thru third in a straight line for 200 ft. I can only imagine this car’s potential.
A car a lot of people can afford and on top of that you can drive it and beat on it with no worries... Once I get caught up on some things this is what I'm going for... only 2 changes would be sleepy eyes headlight kit and black exhaust tips
Love the color! A c5 was my first toy car when I was a bay so I’ve always had a soft spot for them 😂 maybe next year I’ll look into one for myself! Great video as always guys
Men, I've got to say, this channel displays the coolest cars in all youtube. Everytime I've got the notification of a new episode, I'm like a kid receiving a candy 🤣👍🇵🇹
I'm old school. I do prefer it that way....costs less...strong AF....and can rebuild it all day long...I tear into engines for a living and I RARELY see cylinder wall issues near the coolant jackets in cast iron motors...
Yea it’s cheaper. We don’t get any iron blocks here in the U.K. in fact Aluminium blocks are more common, they came in the Vauxhall Monaro. I say more common, but still rare.
That's a beautiful and well built Corvette. Seeing videos like these excite me to buy one of these amazing cars. Nothing like a Corvette to put a smile on your face. (:
Daaang thats LOWWWW!! Looks and sounds amazing. Love the grey color too. Id love to have a set up like that one day. Had a 50th anniv camaro. Miss it every day. Great work!! 💪😎
Is that the stock LS6 intake? Be interested to see how much it would pick up with a FAST 102 at that power level. Also an interesting choice to go with a bored out 6.0 iron block over an LS2 or LS3 aluminum block for a N/A combination (although the iron blocks are cheaper/easier to find).
tbh I have a FAST 102 on my 6.2 Camaro and it doesn't make much of a difference. probably not too much HP gains if you stay N/A. I can imagine if you go procharged it'll be perfect for it
@@fir3gun That's bc you have an LS3 and the stock LS3 intake is one of the best factory intakes ever made. On an LS with cathedral port heads the FAST makes a bigger difference, especially when you're flowing enough air to make over 500 rwhp like this guy's setup.
@@nowayjose596 I wouldn’t say a “bigger” difference regardless. My 6.0 iron block with 243 heads and a Fast 102 barely even pushed out 16hp+ in 80 degree weather in South Texas. Just depends. I’d take the ls6 intake all day but I plan on going boost later lol

I have always gone with borla in terms of exhaust. My 2010 SS has Extremes with cats, my 2007 Corvette has Borla S Type with no Cats and a cam. Cant go wrong either way
Sweet. Love my triple black 6 spd convert w Corsa exhaust. Yours is by far bad ass. Never knew why Z06 doesnt have removable top. I cant afford much but a short shift is in my future. Great job.
I have the same color on my 04.So I have been kind of torn on taking off the center like door guard trim .I have to say after watching this car on video,and seeing Vettes with them off I have to say I am leaving it on.It in my opinion adds to the looks of it.
I have yet to warm up to a C7,C8 Vette with it's angular design language. I always had a sweet spot for C4 and C5 Vettes and this one is truly great executed.

Im glad it is lol . Same with the c4
let it stay that way
@@BornToBeFamed yea exactly
Also 2nd gen Camaros, the prices should stay low
C5 was my first favorite car. The base model 6 speed just for the targa*
These older Corvettes had such a unique and memorable look. Awesome car!
They really do have a timeless look to them. Soft lines and aggressive stances!
Base C5 350 hp.

505whp from a 6.2L LQ4 with ported LS6 heads is really impressive on California 91 octane straight from the pump.
Correct and
97-00 was 345
01-04 was 350

This dude is so chill about the car. You gotta love it.
Perfect setup 3,200 lb 500 horsepower at the wheel driver's car

Fuckin exactly. I can’t fuckin stand these tubers who bitch about interior quality and ignore the actual driving experience. Cough cough SAVAGEGEESE

Get one! :-) Just like you, I wanted a C5 as a kid. Now I own one, I still can't believe it's mine!
Same! I'm hunting for a low mileage c5z for my next car.
Buy it. Its the best investment in lifetime. This car makes me happy!!
Get one promise you will love it! I love mine!
They are the next C4. Getting cheaper and cheaper.

1:01 Fellow C5 owner here,,,they never came 385 stock ,, they went from 345 to newer ones 350 hp
