Don’t sell the C6 Zr1 it’s the best corvette ever made of all time it’s unique, cool, and fun to drive. In my opinion it should be a lifer and it’s my favorite car you have and the most fun content too
You’re speaking the language of a good man. Zr1 - The absolute end all be all of the corvette, I love the zr1, c6 are so good looking. I don’t think there’s any chance I will ever be able to afford a zr1, but I hope to have the ability to at least own a c6 z06. It would suffice.
Hey Lee here's a good one for you, friction/grip isn't surface area related, this is relevant to your assumptions around tyre contact patch and supercharger pulley contact patch. A wider tyre doesn't give you more grip it is the compound that gives you the extra grip, the tyre is wider so it doesn't wear out being a softer compound. If you want to lessen supercharger belt slip you need to look at softer compounds rather than worrying about contact area. Great videos, keep it up 👍
Wow, building a 1100HP Corvette ZR1 is an incredible feat! The dedication and craftsmanship that went into this project are truly impressive. It must be exhilarating to experience the power and performance of such a high-performance machine. Kudos to you for pushing the boundaries and creating something extraordinary. Can't wait to see more of your automotive adventures!
Love the Corvette! Absolutely loved watching the build to finally see it on the track! Wouldnt mind seeing a couple more videos on the track with it before you sell it and start something else! Either way I'll be right here waiting and looking forward to whatever you build next man! 😎🏁
38 seconds into the video and I yelled "I know that garage!". I bought a bunch of stuff from you guys to fix my c5 z06 a few years back. Y'all had a Blue Viper sitting out front back then. Great people. This zr1 is bitchin, dude.
Your biggest fan from O H ten & I’ve been in LOVE with your ZR-1 from the get go ! but after the “ over 1100 report card “ pushed it Over the TOP 4 me! If I was you I would keep it FOREVER ( look how hard it is to find & get a good one ) but other side of coin I understand about selling & diff builds, I wish I had these kinds of problems 😂😂
HELLO THERE LIKE WHAT YOUR DOING TO THESE TOYS, I HAVE A 350Z WHAT IT COST TO SWITCH ENGINE'S LIKE THAT FROM FRONT TO BACK.. I WAS THINKING A CHEVY 350?
I say keep the ZR1 at least long enough to enjoy the results of your work , sell it next spring when the corvette market is stronger. I really would like to see how fast it is.
Stumbled onto your channel last week and have beinge Probably 12 hours and thats no lie 😅 I have long boring work days ! I have a 03 C5 and she is my baby can't wait to buy some parts . Keep up the great work 👍
Keep the zr1! It’s my favorite build to watch updates on! There is already very little zr1 content out there so if you stop making zr1 content then there really isn’t anything left.
you guys are so knowledgeable!!!! I have run into some of the problems you have corrected your self! and I love you asistant because you keep the great! humor in the shop as you guys really love what you do and work great together with laughter as well as you make everything right! thanks for you site!
Loved the series, Lee - but I vote it is time to move on. I'd love to see you guys rebuild an S Class AMG, either S63 with the 6.2L M156 engine (add a supercharger!) or the S65 with the V12 twin turbo motor. Awesome content, favorite car channel on YT hands down.
We drag race our Zr1s and these kind of things happen. Do your research and you will enjoy some 8 second passes for sure. I helped Jeff test that intake and it came out great. Enjoy the car and race it!
Would you guys happen to have a front fender flare which is attached kind of to the front spoiler for a 2011 Corvette C6 grand sport? I’m in need of one I broke it black plastic.
If you ever have the window problem usually if you close the door while holding the window switch up, it will start to work again. Happens all of the time with mine.
Thanks for the video. I feel your pain. You really have to love them as there is always something coming apart. Happy to look after the ZR1 in Australia if your happy to send it down under....
Hey guys! Seems like its always belt issues with these PD blowers eh? I have a Kong 2650 on my LSX 388 cu. in my (wait for it lol) C5 and alot of belt issues. Car made over 850whp @ 18 psi after which belt started slipping. Currently working on the custom belt drive over the winter...
Follow your heart, if it's not a lifer, focus on your other projects or get something new, do what feels good and we'll follow you in any direction you choose!
DW from the Western Shore in AA County. You all just came up in my feed and boy what a 'meal'...hungry for more! I've got some stock C4's; 91 ZR-1 and convertible L98. I just subscribed and will be looking for more of these badass Bowtie diets! 😎
Love this channel!!! I’ve been watching this build for a while. I think I missed the part where you got the hood window glued back in. I needed to fix mine and for some reason no one where I live knows that to use to get it to stick. I’ve tried 3M windshield adhesive and it doesn’t hold up on carbon fiber. If you have any advice on that I would greatly appreciate it.
This is my literal dream car. My favorite color code of the zr1. Keep her safe and happy. Js If you need to give it to me, I will gladly take her. Lmao the zr1 is the baddest c6 / vette ever
As for your question at the end. it would be cool to see it back on the track at least once to get numbers before you sell it on... But content wise and youtube views yada yada.. you know how it goes.. its always next bigger and greater thing.

Aaaaaaammmmmmmeeeeeeennnnnnn, just put some Turbines onto it , 2 b perfect !!! ! !!! 🙂

Agreeable
I hope you keep this, this is truly the last of an era Vette.
*Probably the best all around Corvette ever built*
Keep the ZR1 content coming! By FAR the best part of the channel IMO!
Love the ZR1 content! Keep it around and hit up the drag strip in the spring.
Keep the Zr1 more content
This! At least get us some good launches and time slips
love all the content but Corvettes are my favorite.
More ZR1 content for sure! Love this car
Always been a big muscle car guy but not a corvette guy. That said, your ZR1 looks and sounds amazing. Plus that color!
Keep the Zr1!!

Also love the ZR1 but if it’s just another car for you, sell it. You guys always do awesome projects and I’m sure it would go to something special.

Streetspeed 717 did the same thing with his 1000 hp LMR modified 2011 ZR 1 when he did a run, the belt broke and cut up his coolant hose too.
All these blower cars have the same issue, the belt.
@@ssoffshore5111green belt fixes that
Love the Corvette! Absolutely loved watching the build to finally see it on the track!

That ZR1 would be the best Giveaway Car Ever! You’d make a ton and bring a lot of attention to your channel

It would still look sick af on the trailer!
You've done a great job on your Z R 1 👍
That nsx is super dope in back ground I hope 🤞 that’s new project next yr
It's amazing how you keep your cool during every build. Hats off

I love the smell of catch can smoke in the morning😅😅
Don’t listen to the negative comments, ZR1 will always be king and I’ll rewatch all zr1 videos all day
Keep it!!!!! Let’s see you get the launches down and some good track numbers.
We drag race our Zr1s and these kind of things happen. Do your research and you will enjoy some 8 second passes for sure. I helped Jeff test that intake and it came out great. Enjoy the car and race it!
New build. Great content guys. Keep up the great videos.
Knowing you, you’ll get another. Sell it and keep building! I agree all the fun is in the building !
i would say that with a cool rare car like a c6 zr1 you build it to enjoy it
can you make some aluminum piece or something to shield the line from future belt snaps?
The last generation of great looking Corvettes!
More ZR1 Content and keep it dont sell it. Screw what everyone else is doing on UA-cam
Would you guys happen to have a front fender flare which is attached kind of to the front spoiler for a 2011 Corvette C6 grand sport? I’m in need of one I broke it black plastic.
That zr1 sounds amazing I really want a corvette there so nice and sound so damn good
Thank you for adding Turkish subtitles. We follow it fondly as a country
C6 ZR1 is the best Vette made imo! Keep the content coming!! Don’t sell it!!
keep it going c6 will never get old!!
*I ♡ ZR1 the way you built it, it's perfect in the Supersonic Blue Metallic, definitely 1 of my dream cars*
If you ever have the window problem usually if you close the door while holding the window switch up, it will start to work again. Happens all of the time with mine.
Sometimes you can gain some belt size by taking the idler off and putting it around the belt, then bolting it in with the tension
Thanks for the video. I feel your pain. You really have to love them as there is always something coming apart. Happy to look after the ZR1 in Australia if your happy to send it down under....
I've followed this one from the beginning. It's what hooked me on Scrap Life Garage. Race it, don't sell it
Keep going with the ZR1
Hey guys! Seems like its always belt issues with these PD blowers eh? I have a Kong 2650 on my LSX 388 cu. in my (wait for it lol) C5 and alot of belt issues. Car made over 850whp @ 18 psi after which belt started slipping. Currently working on the custom belt drive over the winter...
Love the ZR1. I have one sitting at 800whp on stock blower. Fun to see the detail on the next level of build.
must be fun as hell!! they pull!
I’d keep the Zr1 that’s a lifer for me
Great episode, I'm here to watch whatever you put out 😮. Its all been good so far 👏👏
More ZR1 content!
these vetts specifically are fast as hell. got to ride in one not long ago pushing 800+whp and its insane. could only imagine 1,000 plus
God dang Chevy America!😍😍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲💪💪💪💪 Yes plz more more ZR1!! U need to take her to the road course which is what Corvettes are built for!!
Take it to Florida for more ZR1 content
You should run your ZR1 against SS717's ZR1 out at the track. What could possibly go wrong?
Love the content on this beast btw.
We need some Roll racing in the zr1🏁
C6 ZR1 is the king of the Corvettes. If you guys dont want it anymore there's someone out there that does
Follow your heart, if it's not a lifer, focus on your other projects or get something new, do what feels good and we'll follow you in any direction you choose!

I would love to see it taken to the track or strip for a few videos, then maybe sell it and start another cool build. But have some fun with it first!
Beautiful Vette 👊🏻
The intake you put on, can I get a link for it/ anywhere I could find it
When drag racing you WANT squat in the back on the hit for better traction. So If anything add more hight in the rear
More Porsche content 🙏🏼
It looks bad ass man, the ride height is perfect and WOW, those ride height adjustment bolt pads look like they were holding up a truck!
Sell it and finish the Demon!! Stay blessed
This is the first video I’ve seen from you guys. Awesome video, great information! You gained a follower.
I'd like to see more racing content love the zr1
Awesome series. Pack it up sell it and let’s get cracking on a new build
if any car the zr1 is a lifer. They will only go up in value , rare and desired. If anything its going to hold its value. Its a special car.
your camera is outstanding, the quality of picture is so good compared to other youtubers
Love this channel!!! I’ve been watching this build for a while. I think I missed the part where you got the hood window glued back in. I needed to fix mine and for some reason no one where I live knows that to use to get it to stick.
I’ve tried 3M windshield adhesive and it doesn’t hold up on carbon fiber. If you have any advice on that I would greatly appreciate it.
Absolutely love this spec. Gorgeous color... That Dyno shop really needs a proper fan setup.
17:45 exhaust leak?
keep it. you made me want a zr1 more then any other youtuber to date.
Man they look great on the car 🔥
More ZR1 content please!!!😎
I’m just like you with the preference of building. When I’m done it’s like now what? But I sold a build I wish I kept so think hard about it
Is that rear wheel power add 20 percent
This is my literal dream car. My favorite color code of the zr1. Keep her safe and happy. Js If you need to give it to me, I will gladly take her. Lmao the zr1 is the baddest c6 / vette ever
11:53
How did you do that!?
What air intake and blue filter is that?
I love that vette you should keep it bro!
Not sure what much else you could do with the ZR1. Might be time to move on. Thanks Brothers for sharing! Take care!
I’m gonna guess that the belt you had bought was kinda old and couldn’t handle it.
What made you choose that cold air intake instead of a HALLTECH?
Hey who milled your calipers? I need this done too.
Heck yeah brother yes love mopar and ford I’ll like those Corvettes love to see those demon videos
hey Lee...nice video mate, great work..sell it, put the money into another build
Those markings where the bead goes on the wheel is called knurling
Rims are perfect yo,I would love to see you go threw the harbor tunnel with full beans of that beast!!!
What idler pulley is on the drivers side?
11:40 I had no idea you could do that to a green belt ?!!!!!
As for your question at the end. it would be cool to see it back on the track at least once to get numbers before you sell it on... But content wise and youtube views yada yada.. you know how it goes.. its always next bigger and greater thing.
Don't let the stance guys get to ya. That's a muscle car my g. Need that little bit of RAKE!!!!
Keep the ZR1 🔥🔥 very hard for any car to be on that same league.
Love to see you guys break into a new market, Ferrari, Lambo, McLaren maybe??
By far the best color on the c6
Threw the leaf springs away and put in coilovers instead, did that 20 years ago on a C5 Z06 the car will be 100% better.
Super lucky with that belt.
