I've only been following the channel for a few months and what stands out most is y'all don't shit talk other shops or YT channels and only name names when you have something positive to say. Love that attitude!
Exactly
@I will die on my feet , before i live on my knees I have no idea, I don't own a Corvette and have little to no interest in GM products, I just enjoy the content and the personalities on the channel. I don't follow many discussion forums since most are nothing more than big ego pissing contests.
For real ..i get sick of shitty haters everywhere..these guys are pretty cool
"we warm it up....and I f****** floor it" LMFAO
When my 2006 Crown Vic POLICE car popped the motor from a faulty Mass Air Flow Sensor, FORD replaced the long block with a 2007 4.6. When my car was returned to me, I was told drive it today like you will any other day. I worked 5p-3a so after calls slowed down and after 1am I got out on the straights smoothest hiway and floored it. After about 4 or 5 runs It topped out at 137mph. When I was issued an Expedition several co workers argued over my car cause it wiped em all. The Expedition topped out at 105 due to the factory speed rating of the tires set in the computer.
It's either gonna go or blow
Nice tidy an propr work is hard to find these days, RPM takes pride in there work without a doubt never mind the haters and key board warriors. I've watched every episode and season and they know there business. I'm a licensed industrial boiler/ combustion technician and take pride in what I touch everyday. Hope to one day be able to have RPM set up my future ride.
Man I really can't wait to see what Fran puts into his ZR1.
Michael Bacon , same! And hopefully some Mexico footage to go along with it..
Always said Eric does some of the most immaculate work on vehicles... and yes i'm a full time mechanic so I do appreciate his work
I genuinely wanted to hear and see Fran work on that converter, I love the technical shit and yea Eric, people that don't know won't appreciate the behind the scenes trick work😉, have a good one guys👍
“We warm it up and then I fu*kin floor it”😂😂😂😂
I love the way y'all hide everything... when your done the cars almost look stock... great work
The ZR1 is one nasty car without the big chopping cam. Very nice job by Fran and the boy's
😁👍
Thanks to Fran for explaining the additional timing and what not to do. Hopefully this help someone else in the future.
That zr1 is a nasty beast... basically 900 wheel. Nice little daily driver. Kudos to Fran for the awesome tuning! I love how you guys go into detail about what your doing. Got nothing to hide!
Appreciate the effort Fran. Also in the car you are calm because you are doing what you love doing the most in my opinion.
I ducking love that Red ZR1!
What the duck you say?!?!
Dreams are made from this ZR1.
I agree with Fran, too many want beefy sounding cams but could care less on the power it actually makes. Posers 😃
I have to admit, I'd take less power for some extreme chop. I can listen to an LS chopping at idle all day and never get tired of it
Episode starts with Fran swearing... someone turned off engine codes :)
Definitely have been meaning to call these guys to do a couple things on my zr1
My car also doesnt have the carbon splitter on at the moment looks weird without it
I ducking love that red ZR1 too, but looks weird with its missing front lip. But I guess maybe it’s off for transport reasons.
Awesome channel. I'm currently in the market for a C6-ZR1 and find your content very informative. Plus, I finally found the fender plastic I've been searching for forever...(in your store). Bought it last weekend. Thanks.
Fran is bringing KP along the right way”She has to have her NHRA license before she goes that fast”.
If I ever get a vette I'm so taking it to you guys
This video is comedic gold lmfao!! So many moments had me weak 🤣🤣🤣
I love the sounds of the zr1 corvette thats y i wnt one
Damn those c6’s have an old school ass gauge cluster that thing is a classic
Uh what
Mr. TAMW the gauge/instrument cluster looks old as fuck and out dated it’s the same one they have been using for 10 years!!! Chevy is lost in the sauce making such an out dated pos in a ZR1!! Can you read that now?
Getting pissed off at timing tables, I love it lmao
Steve , the editing was way well done. Content is getting better and better
DMS all day!!! Love Matt stuff... glad he lives near me! Where I take my SS!
Im not a big Vett guy but im starting to dig this channel
I just came across your channel because I've been researching super chargers. You're only 40 minutes away from me! Did you guys participate in this year's Hot Rod magazines Drag Week? The convoy drove right by your shop on their way back from Attco on their way to Maryland. Subscribed...
That black Z28 in the back looks so good 👌🏾
@ 29:08 “ I mean whoa Steve” 😂😂
that cleetus plug was sick
The way Eric look at u 🤣🤣. That needs to be a gif
"i want to tickle the taint, you know a little video foreplay" I feel violated XD
I agree on the timing with Fran, very smart guy.
It was a rare option for the stitching matching the body color
RPM does great work and tuning
24:17 best part of the video. LMAO.
I've been doing some thinking and I think Kyle from 1320 is bring his Corvette to RPM garage!! 😏😎
Like the saying, The difference between Men and Boys is the PRICE of their TOYS. The Red ZL1 did real good, but it has cost him $$$$$. Mostly the 1st shop that screwed his car, then paying y'all to fix it right.
The outcome was awesome.
Dude I want Fran to take apart the converter again and trans and explain it but this time with audio lol I like learning stuff I’ve never seen or understood before.
Fran should go around the country and show/teach how to properly tune these bad ass cars!
If Jay Leno or Seinfeld show up, I’m streaking. But Seinfeld is not a corvette guy so I doubt it would be him. Seinfeld once said, “Corvettes are like the F word”. At first people think that he meant their cool. But, it’s the opposite. He doesn’t use curse words in his stand up. - _ -
He can do a voice over on the convertor video.
If I recall, you could do red, blue, or yellow custom stitching in the last few years of special order ZR1s. 🤔
I'm pretty sure Steve was right about the Ethanol content table. There was a multiplier of 1.00 for 61%+ E content.
Edit: You explained
Warm and let it go!!!!! Same here shade tree works the same if your good
Nice Job! Fran needs to fix his ZR1 asap!
Rick Hendrick?
Fran makes me laugh ever freaking time
What aftermarket taillights are those on the red ZR1? Morimoto?
Yes!
Fran's ZR1 must be high mileage from all the trips to Mexico and back. 🤔😂😂
Nice job guys that motor is great!
My H/C/I C6Z is running 27* of timing in it along with all of the similar setup C6 Z06 cars that have come out of the same shop. None of us have had any issues and have put many HARD miles on our cars. I'm not claiming to be an expert by any means but there has to be more to the 27* of timing jokes lol. Plenty of cars are running that number just fine and making very good reliable power. If there's more to it then I'd surely love to know, I'm always down to learn a thing or two.
You must have a really terrible cylinder head...
@@RaceProvenMotorsports I've got Brodix BR7 heads on the car. Non ported and non milled.
I ducking love this
I like watching the vids , because i get ideas on how to neatly hide and tuck Things on my obs build😂👌
To turn voice to text back on enable the google search app. It has somehow been deactivated. Google powers voice to text. Same thing happened to me.
Fran is the man..👌
3:08 he was scratching his nuts lol
That's red C6 ZR1 is nasty. Fran will be raising the compression on his. As soon as he puts aside the money. Steve what's the name of the theme song for the intro to the red ZR1 on the dyno?

Kyles ZR1 and Frans ZR1 from RPM are probably my two favorite cars ever.

Kyle should've just sent his ZR1 to RPM originally.
Couldn't agree more with some comments over on 1320s page
I love the c6 zr1s
Next hoodie should say RPM break in procedure WE WARM IT UP AND DUCKING FLOOR IT
What kind of Engine does Fran have in his Racecar?????
Cauae he's taking it up to 9,000 RPM so was really curious.
Frans racecar has a LSX with a F1A94 procharger
There are 1,051,200 minutes in 2 calendar years.
"thing is gonna be spicy"
My dad had a 90 C4 ZR1 then when they came out with the 92 model that jumped from 375 to 405 he had to have that traded the 90 in on one now that he is way older he prefers the base models says he doesn't need 700 HP lmfao
Eric, Tell Fran that Kong started making Carbon fiber again a few months ago, due to customer demand. Now Fran, I should have said This is the internet and they do make the Kong in Carbon fiber again. lol
We know about the carbon we said he doesn’t make the 3D printed anymore
@@RaceProvenMotorsports Dumb internet! lol Need to pay more attention. I hope you win in your class at the World cup, I'm rooting for you!! I hope you're going to bring your camera so we can come along. Good Luck Fran!
ZR1 s' are the best... I dare someone to say something
I almost pissed my pants!! Warm it up and fn floor it!
Do a voice over on the trans video that Fran did...
I see, I click.
Is that gas ported pistons i see?
Been a minute since the car wash girl got some work in lol
If it can't take it. It can't stay. Lol
We warn it up
Then I fucking floor it
^^this should def be on a T shirt 😭😭
Which video shows Fran working on the converter. Some of us would like to listen and learn
the recent World Cup videos
KYLE owner of 1320 video.
His zr1.
1,051,898.4 mins in two years
What type of watch is that he's wearing. Freaking awesome. ✌🏾💯
Maggie needs to make a 2650 for the c6 zr1
He walks fat. Lol love videos keep it up
"Supercharger boost controller" 😂
🤔 i seen a procharged car that was pullied to the max and they had a wastegate on the pipe that was controlled by boostcontroller with co2.
Hey Fran what are your thoughts on adding a wastegate to a centri blower setup.
@@mrnonamenobody6910 I dont know exactly what that would be. ; but centrifugal builds boost with rpm. Pulleys, timing and fuel really is all that would give you more horsepower.
@@JBC1154
I know but was told that the reasoning behind using the wastegate was for boost by gear boost control etc....so that even tho it was pullied for 30lbs of boost( just using this as a number I don't know what max is for the setup)...the car would only see 10lbs in 1st...15lbs in 2nd...etc..so in a way in would act like a turbo car.
@@mrnonamenobody6910 boost by gear would almost be redundant for a supercharger because they cant over boost. But maybe if you just spin because of wheel speed when boost builds. But honestly never heard of boost controller or boost by gear
Streetspeed717 ZR1 is coming to RPM
ZR1s everywhere 😁
Next hoodie “It’s either going to work or it’s not”
What machine shop did the bottom end for that ZR1?
What compression is it?
I love it my guys rpm keep up the work and love video 💯💯💯💯💯💯👍
31,536,000 minutes is in 2 years
You should race kyle from 1320. C6ZR1 vs C6ZR1
Do I need LASIK or do I see wheel wobble 23:03, 23:11
Do people DIY educate themselves to tune? Seems complicated enough that formal classroom learning is warranted ... there are so many intricacies, and, “you don’t know what you don’t know”.
So 28-29 degrees of timing is to high for N/A LS engines?
Yes
@@RaceProvenMotorsports I got a lot to learn. I have mine crank on 15° idle at 16-18, and WOT 28-29° Not to mention my turbo cars run 12-17° at 20 pounds of boost. Is that different numbers if tunning with Holley?
routing and making everything nice and tidey is a major part of time used during a modification. Cant stand when a car looks like someone just kind of "puked" everything under the hood,like a 3yr old did it
Badass.......so many things.
1,051,200 minutes in 2 years. I only know that because of the broadway musical rent which has a son 525,600 in a year. lol
Fran, any plans to get a c8?
21:00 Hit the like button if this music reminded you of Blackstone Intelligence Network.
Lol f**kin floor it....🤣😂🤣😂😊🤣😂
