My Abandoned Corvette ZR1 Gets A 1000HP ENGINE!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 янв 2023
- I bought the CHEAPEST Corvette C6 ZR1 in the country! It's been sitting outside with no engine (and half it's body panels..) ever since...
With 120,000 miles, this Vette has been through it! So when I pulled the heads to find the LS9 in need of some serious work, it may not have came as a surprise, but the wait we were about to be in for shut down the project for over a YEAR..
Now? It's time to get this C6 ZR1 back on the road with a TON more power!
Have a salvage Corvette rebuild story of your own? Maybe you're building your own 1000HP Z06 or ZR1? Put it in the comments!

RIP KEN BLOCK 43 FOREVER
What’s that got to do w this
Who?
@@burntsilverado how do you not know ken block he’s a rally legend
@@saidiagiri779 never heard of her
@@Freddy_Confetti just for likes weirdos I tell you
Ive been waiting for this day for so long and now its here!!!! I cant wait to see this build finished. Im glad it finally got in. And i cant wait for the porsche to be finished aswell.
Almost forgot about this build! Seeing the new mill in it with that super charger top is sweet! Lotsa love for the Plastic Pig.
The fact you did this all in one video got me to subscribe and love the content! Bout to binge the Channel
Love that green cornwell toolbox. Someone has good taste in tools
My man Lee!!! I’ve been waiting for this for so long. Thank you for not forgetting about it.
Love the jorts, white New Balance, and horrible button up. I am not crazy about the color and those black wheels (brushed or polished aluminum finish would look killer) but that 2650 and modified LS9 will make some SERIOUS POWER!
Good Evening Dalt, I HATE NISSAN JUKES
One of the days KOLLIINN!
WOW that vette is a beast, best Corvette. Thanks for sharing captain.
RIP KEN BLOCK RIP we will all ways love him :(
Only reason I subbed to this channel was to see this SSB ZR1 come back to life....Totally ready to give you what you paid for it when you're done. :)
I think I might have that in mods 🤣
I love that you dressed the part! Can't have a corvette video without the shorts and newbalances!! Love the phone purse!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very cool stuff. Happy new year too!
Great teacher hopefully I can learn how to build and rebuild engines from this💯✅
Happy New Year. Good to see you back with a bang 🎉
been dying to see this puppy come back
I was wondering what happened with this project! Looking forward to seeing her rip!
Let’s go!!!! Hurry up haha.
Happy for ya man! I’m in the process of rebuilding my supra .
@0:33 I have to admire the corvette outfit. Straight gangsta 💯
I'll say in thing, you have the corvette owner image down pat. 😂😂🤣🤣
ls7 and ls9 connecting rods are forged titanium, just upgrade the rod bolts and wrist pins. you shouldve told them to keep the stock rods in it because theyre titanium. your loosing a little hp and gaining rotating mass with steel rods
Random recommended channel from youtube…..and here is a guy with the Vette dad fit on😂😂 im here to stay 🤣
Thank you for adding Turkish subtitles. I follow it fondly. Sela from Turkey
There Uuuuuu Go ! Now your going to spend another 5 for transmission to handle that power .
If Dalt ever actually gets the Fd running… he doesn’t stand a chance!
I would trade my E46 M3 for a C5 corvette in a heartbeat 🏁🏁
That shouldn’t be hard if you are in the US, those M3s fetch about the same as a c5 z06
back to superchargers!
For all the new upgrades should have definitely got you a nice set of Billet valve covers
That stradman reference 🤣
Those new balances are fresh hahaha
Great job been waiting on this for a min love the corvette content!!
boyd coddington jr 😂😭
There was a similar spec flood ZR1 in Punta Gorda a month or so ago. You grab any of the Florida flood vettes?
haha balancing that big clutch! I'm a class 8 truck engine mechanic. that's tiny compare to a double disc easy pedal truck clutch heh
Spin that 2650! they’re dogs unless you throw a small pulley on them. Don’t be the guy with the 2650 making 800wheel 😂
Great content and very entertaining. You should be on Motortrand TV.
Love these builds. My dream car is a C5
Should have used blue loctite on those flywheel bolts.. they do back out.
Beautiful parts
When you see the new balances just know.....your about to see something great
This go be me when I get a new engine for my g 🔥
The New Balance shoes 😂😂
Fresh asf
Those stock wheels looked so good; No need to change them.
My dream corvette 🔥🤘🏽
The Gucci mane tattoo though 😂
BRR
Dope shirt.
RPM Motorsports has great combos for these
Wait you have a iPhone 8? Fancy, I’m still rocking the 6S plus.
I could use some used ls9 pistons and rods 😃 and a sponsor or 2 🤣
I know a guy that wears shirts like that.... Mr. Coddington
Hey @scraplife garage what trailer are you using to tow the Porsche?
thank you for the Portuguese subtitles
Don't get a Big head guys the ending of the episode was actually 😂
New subscriber 🎉
cheers from chicago
Hey buddy I know where a (from looks of it ) an ALL STOCK Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 c6 is sitting and I believe is the same charcoal grey looking color, I believe the owner may have passed away and the zr1 looks a little dusty from sitting but seems to be getting neglected and I have no idea who owns it now or anything but I bet you could get it cheap for zr1 prices atleast ,it's located in triadelphia WV along route 40
sweet video, I an not even vette fan.
C'mon man! Jorts and new balances, that a'int right...
LS9 Pistons ,, hmmm I got the ls9 cam, and pulley
My poor 2005 LSA 4x4 Colorodo with ls9 upgrade.
Woaw, slow down.. lol
I’m going to have to come work for you to afford. Got room for a Texan with a big tool box?
Did u mount that throttle body correctly?
They didn't use any particularly expensive parts for bearings and rings tho.
Radium is the only fuel system I will use from here on out. "Expensive" but worth it!!!!!!!
Abandoned my ass , Nobody abandon’s a ZR1 😂
Maryland ❤

Dalt does indeed have an FD project that will make its way back on camera at some point.
nice garag
Respect where it's due, she gonna eat.
I like your shirt!
So where you going to sell the stock LS9 pistons and rods?
Soooo those pistons 👀
Rad shirt
pistons and rods :)
You totally over exaggerated the New Balances. I never ever seen anyone wear brand new ones. : )
do you think univeral technical institute would be a good entry level school to get into cars?
The only time a man says a massive hole is great.
What's goin on with the RS
I need your corvette shirt...I can't find one
Confused 47k for that is way over wholesale.. 35k is mmr
Coral Gables 🌴🇺🇸 💘 my C 6 's . Suggest some Key's 🌴 time for you. Till then DEFINITELY shorts no bueno ! Seen better on a 🐔 Hehe 🏄
Don’t high mark in a snowmobile. Jeez.
Bro I got 3 project cars about 80% done. I just get burnt-out and the car don't do it for me anymore
Isn’t this like one of the most rare colors?
Nice
my guy opened up a electric tb by hand............
can i have some used ls9 pistons
Nice touch with the sex offender 7’s 👟👟 😂
1000 hp on the stock transmission?
The way he snugs up bolts stresses my out.
شي رائع وجميل انا من عشاق هذه السياره الجميله
Funny how u make fun of belt clips when i just picked up a otter box for my iphone and wearing a belt clip lol its only nice when your phone wont fit into your pocket like a iphone witg a defender case on it its like a brick in your pocket
can i have some used ls9 pistons PLEASE
At least you found the time to find *the* brightest blue brake calipers, if you personally painted (or maimed) them that co,lour, you have problems, buddy.
can I have the Vette Hawaiian shirt?
Idk what's cheap to you but that one car is over my annual salary
bro this video can go to 2160p 4K
Not nitrous ports, Meth ports
Bet your kicking yourself in the balls for selling the IO zr1. I tried so hard getting into an inferno grand sport or Z06 but has to settle for cyber grey. Night race is nice too
Yes. Yes I am 😢
Hello I'll like to have the pistons I'll pay for shipping
Dammm it's 2023 who's still uses phone pouch 😂😂😂😂
You know how I know you don’t drive a vette!?
@@scraplifegaragehmm because I don't use a phone pouch? I actually do own 18 zo6. But my dream car is a zr1 and lfa
@@jimt5683 wait, they didn't give you the standard issuer phone pouch at the dealer?
@@scraplifegarage I don't if your joking but no haha. But keep the good content going 👍👍💪💪
