Please address all inquiries to member Juan here: http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/p...=newpm&u=38229 '05 Corvette Forged 427 - Very Fast and priced to sell! Information contained below. Quote: 2005 C6 CORVETTE 427ci 600HP+ FAST CLEAN PRICE: $27,000 2005 C6 Corvette Z51 Package (slotted rotors, transmission cooler, thicker sway bars) Machine Silver Color 6 speed manual transmission Black C6 Split Spoke Wheels Firestone Run-flat tires (front have plenty of life left, the rears are nearing their end) 92,000 Miles (all in California - no salt no snow) MOTOR - The heart of it all: Forged 427ci motor LS3 Block (416) CNC'ed L92 heads, (360cfm intake and 280 cfm exhaust) Patriot gold duel springs stainless valves titanium retainers Scat 4.100 forged crank Scat rods ARP bolts Diamond forged pistons ARP head studs L76 manifold 40lb injectors Comp lifters Hardend pushrods Comp cam 232/234/595/598/112LSA MSD wires 160 stat Motor built and speed density tuned by Charlie Williams @RPM Motors Installed at A&A Corvette Dyno - 523rwhp/489rwtq Other modifications: Kooks headers 1 3/4'' B&B Bullet CAT back exhaust Accelerator Intake Elite Engineering oil catch can Balanced LS7 clutch Direct fit large capacity radiator New water pump (installed August 1 at Lindsay Cadillac) I recently drove this car from Los Angeles, CA to Alexandria, VA - car performed flawlessly and I got on average 28 MPG. The forged motor has 40,000 miles on it and was built by one of the most well known Corvette engine builders in the country (Charlie @ RPM Motorsports CA). The car has never been abused or raced. The car did have a door skin replaced from an accident that occurred in a parking lot (I have a copy of the carfax report). VA Emissions - car has all the proper components to meet VA emissions and is good for the next year. The reason for sale: After purchasing the car I was offered a tremendous employment opportunity. I could keep the car, but it just doesn't make practical sense given my new office location in DC. Sitting in traffic in the city bumper to bumper is no fun and I need something a bit more practical for city driving. I look forward to answering your questions, regardless of how trivial you may think they are. Any chance to talk cars is warmly welcomed! I have all documented receipts from the previous owner since the car rolled off the assembly line - even down to EVERY single oil change. All was hand documented. There is one small problem I've yet to work out: The passenger window, when warm out side, doesn't like to go down unless you tap the inside of the door. It could be the track is ever so slightly off alignment or the switch could have a small short. I doubt this is a significant issue and could be resolved fairly quickly, I just haven't had the time to pull the door apart. Other than that issue the car is PERFECT! In the end someone is going to get this car at a great price and with a motor that will last 300,000 miles! PRICE: $27,000 * I encourage you to shop around for other cars of this year and mileage that are stock. You can not and will not find this much car for this little bit of money ANYWHERE. this is price just a few thousand over TRADE IN value. juan.barnett at gmail .com Happy Motoring,

Any feedback at all guys? I'm open to suggestions/offers.

Clean trade in is $22,000 and clean retail is $26,000. Keep in mind that is stock.

The motor in this car alone was a $14,000 build.

I like everything except the miles on the car. That is a sweet engine build though.

Not much of a video, but its a start. I've got a pretty weak rinky-dink camera too. Cut me some slack!

How about a trade and some cash? That way you can have a fun car AND THEN get a responsible car! I have a 538rwhp pump gas fully built '92 Mustang

Thanks for the offer, but looking for an outright sale.

[NOVAgearhead]

Up to the top!

CR? And is the motor built for boost?

I still am sitting here in amazement that this much car goes for the same money as modified C5's!

[Yatzee]

A regular C6 is plenty fast, this must be a riot!

I'm writing this from BB on the train so apologize for being short.

CR is 11:1 - too high for boost. The heads were milled. If I were to boost it I would stick with the L92/L76 heads and just trade these port and polished set for stock ones - toss on a thicker head gasket and you are money. You'd probably want to toss in some 60lb injectors too

7-8 psi w a TT setup - Easily over 700/700 combo.

[germeezy1]

No problem, I post from my BB all the time!

Wow this is a beast of a car for not much money, GLWS ...

You guys are right on the money - this thing is a BEAST!

I'm in talks with someone about the possibility of a new-new job that will get me back to what I was used to making - if that happens, this thing will get a blower and I'll pick up a new CTS-V for my daily driver.
