It takes a brave person to attempt a dig this deep into the guts of both generations. I bet there will be some others giving it a go now that this maniac showed it’s possible. Far fing out man!🤟🏻🏁
Yep I’m probably gonna do it myself. It’s amazing how a lot of that stuff just actually bolt in with some minor modifications I always knew the drivetrain would fit with cutting the tube down and some other modifications, but to see someone actually do it. Now I’m excited to see the finish product and perhaps take on this project later on this year.
I initially thought this too. Then I realized GM cuts costs on their cost cutting measures, so it doesn't surprise me they made the exact same car from 1997-2019. And if you read All Corvettes Are Red, you will see why the C4 lingered on as long as it did.
Amazing they left those bolt patterns the same. C5 with an LT…thats awesome! Per RPM, a TR6070 swap into a c5 requires shortening the TT and linkage 1.75”. Love this kind of swap. Keep us posted!
This is cool. I wanted to swap my c5 interior for C6 and wondered if it would fit. Looking at this it Def should. I would upgrade all the speakers instead of putting in the stock ones if it was me. Great job so far! Can't wait to see the final product
I'm glad you are documenting it. I'm in the Facebook group you started posting it on. You are moving through this a LOT faster than I thought. Please keep us updated.
Balls the size of a ZR1! Hahaha badass man! Here us C5 owners can’t even fix our bad grounds(me) and you said frick it, I’ll just make mine a C7! Subscribed and along for the ride!
Just made me want my c5 even more please drop more videos and be consistent this is truly amazing 💪🏽💪🏽 if you ever need a fpv drone pilot for a video let me know
dude I was literally just thinking yesterday "I wonder if a C7 interior would bolt into a C5?"; never did i consider swapping the ENTIRE rest of the c7 but this is so damn cool, subbed. 🤙🏻
This is just insane, cant wait to see how everything turns out, i might do the same down the road cuz C7 are really expensive and also i like the body lines of the c5 more. Can't wait to see more man, keep it up.
As the owner of an immaculate '04 C5 Z06, I completely approve of this! lol What an insane amount of interchangeability. I knew the C5/C6 were highly interchangeable but the C5 to C7, who'da thought it? Subbed and awaiting further updates.
Subbed for sure! Although i redid all my c5 interior, now i wish i knee this would fit. Makes the car look so much more modern. Although my corbeau seats i love.
@@TheWolfMatt so when I picked the car up from co part i noticed it had longtubes on it and once I got it fired up I noticed the Cam but other than that it seems to be stock
@@Gunrcowan You may want to pop off the timing cover to see which cam is actually in there. You'll need that info for tuning when it gets to that point. Great job so far bud, amazing work at getting all that swapped out.
@@TheWolfMatt 90% Chance I’m gonna end up pulling the motor completely apart and going through everything and changing the cam and fixing the heads since some LT1s tend to have LS7 syndrome Might also send the 7 speed off to have the Z06 gear set put in since the gears are a lot tighter
@@Gunrcowan Both great ideas. Most don't know about the old LS7 valving issue and even fewer don't realize that it found its way into the LT1 and LT4. You going to keep the OEM pop up headlights or swap them for the C5R headlamps? I think it'd give it a much meaner and more updated look than original.
Support this man at all costs

Amazing job, didn’t expect to see even a 10th of all this in the first video. Can’t wait to see more!
same here the video was perfect
@@billpar Yeah I was thinking, this is going to go SLOW if at all. Then I watched till the end and was shocked how far they got.

this is amazing. Can't wait for followups.
Bros making this look stupidly easy!
Big thumbs up to you! Thanks for making this video. Posting on Corvette forums and getting after this.
Major project but it's a great project. Can't believe how it's coming together for you. 😎👍 Keep the vids coming and I'll definitely be watching.
That’s awesome!
Good luck to you sir!
Absolutely wild. Someone has to try this with a C6
I was in shock seeing how easy they made it to swap all that over
@@Boshjall it’s honestly crazy it’s pretty badass

Sweet! I have been thinking of this swap.
Subscribed and notifications turned on. Good luck!
Can’t wait to see it done 🔥

Interesting project. I subscribed.
Could you share some pictures of the mounts you made for the electronic steering rack?
Good video
That’s pretty wild but awesome. I came from the C5 Facebook page
Oh shit! Your channel about to blow up from this!. Ive been searching for someone who is doing this type of build. Sub
This is awesome. Good luck.
Sick swap
excited to see where this goes
Wow I’m impressed
This is gonna be a badass biuld I'm thinking this has never been done b4
this is awesome
Saw this on tik tok then randomly pops up on my CZcams 🔥
If I had a friend like you...
906th subscriber :D
BAD ASS. WOW.
Had to subscribe
Amazing video 👍
Bro this dude just cooked 👍👍
This is gonna be an awesome ass car.
@@michaelstigall1436 thanks man I appreciate it
black metallic !
Interested in the Steering Rack!!!!!
Looking good Gunner. THis is wild. Seriously, how much days or hours do you have into this at the time of this video?
@@PNW_Car_Mods just 1 month of work with a couple 4 day weekends
@@Gunrcowan Looking forward to the next video!
👏👏👏👏👏
That C5 is going to be absolutely bonkers once it's all finished up. What all was done to the C7 LT1 before you dropped it into the C5?

@@TheWolfMatt I’m going to try and retain the pop ups but use a sleepy eye design where they won’t look so bug eyed
I'm looking at my c5 like u getting a bbl😂
The tr6060 is better in every way to the 6070
Bro thats tufff
How is this gonna be more economical than replacing and upgrading the bad parts? How much does a wrecked C7 manual go for?
@@erikrummel6277 I got this one for $7,400
Really cool project and I wanna watch for sure but you need to stop clunking that camera around please
@@xX4wdriverXx I plan on getting an actual mic
Your dad has to be a gear head
Brilliant!! I like the C5 and 6 looks over the 7 especially the back end. C7 looks like a fisher price from the back.
F8 green
@@lanekjeldergaard1556 not a bad color option at all
Why is it necessary to shorten the torque tube? What would interfere
@@boychef4862 the TR6070
Is longer than both the TR6060 and the T56 the difference is in the transmission
does it read the miles or can you reset it
It will read the miles the C7 had on it (38,000) my C5 had about 54,000 on it
Great skill, but why????
I wanted to challenge myself as a builder
U mean putting a c5 front end and vin on a c7
@@kevinlevesque3930 damn near lol 😂😂😂
@@Gunrcowan C5 = Lighter, shorter wheelbase, better.
Too cool!
