Easily one of the loudest cars in recent memory 😂 Look out for the 2024 Mustang GT next week... although I'm not sure it'll leave the same impact.
Best way to troll a C8 is to tell it the truth. It's not a real Corvette.
@@josephmatuszak3855 C8 = Poser 458
The C7 was the last real Vette but as far as purity goes, the C6 Z06 was by far the best of the breed.
@@TheWolfMattAnd the C7 Z06/ZR1 are the fastest vettes mod for mod you can buy lmao. I wonder how the C8 Z06 pairs with the C6Z06 mod for mod, N/A vs N/A. My C6Z06 on my old heads/Cams E85 setup made 650+ WHP, weighed 3140 lbs full weight without me in it. The new C8 Z06 apparently weighs 3650 lbs but it has a faster shifting trans compared the C6.
@@TheWolfMattThe problem is the C7s however is the trans, 5th gear just slows the entire car down and there’s not as much support as the 6L80/6L90 trans.
@@aimxdy8680 Didn't the C7's come with either a M7 or 8L90 trans? Only the ZL1's got the 10L90 (18 or 19 and up) which was far superior to the 8L90.
I still like the row of the gears done by myself opposed to some computer deciding on where it wants to put the power in each gear.
Okay the algorithm is messed up if a channel with 300k+ subs posts a 7.2L LS7 video and gets 8k views. This is so badass.
maybe because homie has 7.2L… i barely clicked on the video and clicked out when he said zed as an american. its a 7.0 and car guys know that barely means anything, because CID is the true size of the engine. also zed? lol nothing wrong with that but comes off as trying a little much
@@Gardo_11You’re babbling a whole bunch of nothing. Also he’s Canadian and they say “zed” in Canada.
@@Thechildishmandingo. Car is made & produced in America, and it’s pronounced Z06, he’s saying it wrong.
@@Gardo_11 I don’t care about how he pronounced “Z06” when all I’d be able to hear is the loud ass cam and exhaust.
I whole-heartedly agree!
The ls7 has to be one of the nastiest sounding American motors
Add a cam, performance air intake, msd manifold, exhaust system and it'll wake up an entire neighborhood.
@@Stuffandfangsand cams, without those you can’t get the lovely “chopping” at idle
I love the cross shopping comparison. Puts the cars in perspective
It's more and more relevant now than ever. So many people are comfortable buying cars sight unseen, really expands the pool of options
Ditching the circular tail lights was the worst decision GM has ever made
Not really
@@user-pq5wh6cy5s yes really the rear end on the c7 and c8 is disgusting
I would say the worst was putting the engine in the rear, u might as well not even call it a Corvette anymore 😣
@@1xBossup🎯
I like the c7 rear better honestly
I switched from MK4 single turbo supra to C6 Z06 and it was a very good decision. You can't beat N/A reaction.
very good decision indeed!
The LS7 will drop a valve and gay men will visit you soon.
They're so light at 3100lbs 6-700hp will have you beating a lot of very fast cars
In roll racing maybe.😂
@@Leonidae60-130 on draggy they're faster than mostly anything.
@@mmholling87 Like I said..
Yeah ok🙄@@Leonidae
@@Leonidae that applies to all races bro… u must be living under a rock and not see all these 500 hp Hondas whooping anybody’s azz 😭😂
What a build! This guy gets it, no bs, just a ripper!!
Nice Z and cool mods. I like that Graham kept it N/A. Keeps the character of the LS7, he just evolved it. And that sound, I love it!
I'm also a proud owner of a C6 Z06 Wil Cooksey 427 Limited Edition. So I know what's like to drive one of these. Seven years of ownership and it still never gets old.😁
I'll never ever sell it.
I hear ya Sonny. Me too. C6Z for life :-)
"There's just not enough road." My guy has a point. What a car, can't imagine having a mile to wind one out 😁. Great review dude! Loved it!
C6 was the peak of Corvette. No other generation comes even close imo.
I’d argue C7 is close if you only care about performance wise, the LT4 motor can handle more power than any LS9/LS7/LS3. LT4s have made 1300+ WHP on stock bottom end and now run 6.9 second 1/4 miles on a OEM block, I believe sleeved. You need an LSX to do such thing lmao.
@aimxdy8680 good luck keeping your engine clean with 1300whp on a stock LT4. Must have to top off coolant every pass. Lol. You do know the block castings are no different in strength between any of the LS and LT series. All sleeves were cast iron. A 1300whp street vette of any L series engine should have ductile iron sleeves a billet crank and billet girdle for longevity at that power level.
C7 is 200kg heavier which is very much
@@DziadekMroz6666 Also no other Corvette has the naturally aspirated potential of a C6 Z06. Hell, there are even videos of naturally aspirated C6 Z06 beating the Tesla Plaid in acceleration from a roll.
@aimxdy8680 with the C6Z, it's about being a drivers car, not about max horsepower. In some areas the C7 is an improvement, but there is a reason that C6's are still setting lap records today (C7's not so much)
The Z06 and the 14/15 Z28 are my dream cars, nothing like that classic Chevy chop, in 7 liters too 👌🏽
I *love* The C6 Z06, its the car that made me a Corvette fan. Not sure I could live with the exhaust though, they sound pretty great standard or close to it for me
Ford guy here, but the LS7 is one of my favorite v8 engines.. Besides the 4.6L 2v..lol
Nothing better than loud exhaust, bud. A car can't breathe until you open the exhaust..
@@dannythompson1948 loud exhausts are great when everyone is onboard with the idea, which is not the real world. Plus there's much more to exhausts than just make it as free flowing as possible.
@P71ScrewHead same here have a 2v 4.6 but that LS7 sounds like a beast
@@SilentMovements305 Heck yeah man.. Only ls i like is the 7..
I've got an 03 Z06 with 590 RWHP. Since I have stock wheels/tires I cannot do digs but rolls on the freeway are fun. Nothing better than having my old Vette spank new muscle cars.
Love the yellow
I drove a 2006 same color back in 2006, and that 505 hp was a beast. I can only imagine another 200. The drum beat of that cam is music to the ears. Plus, the exhaust note is killer with that 6spd manual.
C6 and C7 are hands down the best vettes ever made in regard to aesthetics, sounds, performance and handling. Cannot even fathom how people get excited over the C8. 😂
C7 angles ruin it. New GM management and designers. It looks okay now but it's not timeless.
C6 and C2 are the best for me. C2 L88 was the peak 60s American car outside of the unobtainable GT40 and the C6 is carried by Zs.
I’ve got a 09 ZR1 and a C8, completely different experience and I thoroughly enjoy driving both! Also had a C7 ZO6 regretfully sold…😢
Cannot fathom?
@@GTOHawg Yarr mang, like, literally
That exhaust note is nasty as hell. Just beautiful
Honestly.... thats like the PERFECT Corvette exhaust note.
gotta love the explosive sound of a full throttle big bore LS.
C6 greetings from germany! Loved the Review and built!
As a previous C5Z, C6Z ,now C7Zo6 owner w upgrades,all manual, who'd luv but cant afford the dealership hikes for a C8Z,
Enjoy your ride,sounds amazing,have fun!!
but
There's always someone faster out there lol🏎️
Stay safe!!
Which one has been your favorite
Sweet ride. I’m guessing the engine build is worth what a ‘05 C6 goes for.😂 The sound is 🔥
It’s a USD $27,000 build including all parts and labor in the NY area. Other places you will save about $2,500 in labor
FYI, full head cam intake exhaust is 10-12k in parts.
Heads 3-5k
Headers $2500
Ported MSD and TB $25-2700
Cam and supporting mods like trunnion -1k
-----‐------------------------------
Other misc stuff if you do it like oil pump, timing chain, catch can - $700
Add new ls7 lifters or caddy race $500
Clutch $1500-2k
----------------------
Then labor if you're not doing it yourself 3-5k depending on Clutch.
You will have 580-620 wheel depending on dyno, cam specs, heads.
@@carado1984I did mine for 10k
Install LG coilovers and dial them in. I measured the ride height and adjusted the shocks 3/8" lower in the front and the stock ride height in the rear. It took three outings to get the damping and rebound correct for the street. I installed a functioning challenge hood, which reduced fluid temperature and helped eliminate front-end lift. ACS side skirts not only look good but deflect debris from the front tires. ZR-1 rear spoiler. BB cat back exhaust. The valve issue was resolved by West Coast Racing Heads and a K-Tech ZR1 dual disk clutch if I were to supercharge.
Having owned Corvettes from my first 1968 Convertable 427 4-speed in 1969; to definitely my last Corvette, a 2008 Z06, currently with 11k on the clock.
The newer models have more power, and they need it, as the C-8 weighs almost as much as my deceased Pappies four-door lead sled.
I never bonded with the looks of the C-7, and the C-8 looks like a Chinese Lambo; I'm not sure who designed the rear as it looks like an afterthought.
PS If I were to purchase a new vehicle at my age (70's) it would be the Bronco Raptor, not a new Corvette...
Love that clip in after the Viper stuff of you going to hyperspace. Crazy!
I have a c5 and i swear this just sounds like it’s big brother with them both being manual that makes me so happy🥺
Sounds sick, very nice build.
Puppy is barking loud,sweet car!
Good job Graham! Ypu deserve it I'll keep my rear plate shined up for ya! Haha
Had a slightly modded C-6 Z51 6spd and the Doug Rippie Bilsteins really made a huge difference in how the car handled on mountain roads in CO and on track if you don't quite have the $ to go coilovers. Also can highly recommend the MGW shifter.
The sound of all sounds on this thing!
What a sound!
Vipers are sweet but prices are wild right now and parts, especially body and interior parts are crazy expensive. C6Zo6 is a beast.
People keep saying C6Z is a great performance bargain not realizing how expensive that engine is when it breaks.
Most people can afford who buy it
It's still a performance bargain and ls7s don't just break out of nowhere. If you buy that car you know what you're doing.
This modded C6Z is more reliable than stock.
@z-ra this. I'd do heads cam on one from the start. From there you don't gotta worry about it if it's maintained.
Look into AFM issues on C7. Now you're talking $. New heads on LS7 and Bob's your uncle :-)
That's how they should sound from the factory. 👍That sound is what made me Love Old Muscle cars since I was a kid.🥰
Amazing. Solid super American build
Great Vid KUDOS to the emphasis on engine sound,You jus made my idea complete of a super car for the "low" tickets do not care wat ppl say soooo imma gonna build one like this same EVERYTHING!
Great video on a beautiful C6 Z06. That thing is a total beast of a car. Honestly can't wait till I find the right one for me to go out and get.
The right one is always worth the wait
@@RoadsUntraveled Indeed. I'm just torn between color schemes from either the carbon metallic grey or velocity yellow. Has to be 08-12 (13 has too many electrical nannies).
0:00 uph-uph uph-uph uph-uph uph-uph... omg i can't anymore... jizzed
Sounds awesome!
Souds like mine! Gotta love that Gm sound over others.
The LS 7 motor was probably the best V-8 muscle car engine Chevy ever made. He's right, it's the one motor that sounds so freaking good just as an N/A that you almost don't need to do anything with it. It's pretty bad@$$ just the way it is...and the sound is legendary.
One of the best. I have a C6Z with heads/cam and everything else, plus a 991.2 GT3 with a 6 speed. NA screamers. Both catless and loud.
Love the z06. Watched them at le mans win their class. Hi from uk
Man that's almost exactly like my old Vette. I had 12 reliable, grin-inducing years with that car. Sadly after the top-end build and big cam just like this i became dependent on my tuner who decided to leave town. Nothing but trouble after that and I got tired of constant niggles and dodging the smog guys every couple years so I sold her. I sure miss that car though..:)
C6 = My Fav Generation of Corvette
I wasn't a huge Corvette fan but I'm a huge car head and I had a yellow c5 Vette and a Corvettible sting ray toy model car and those things
were beautiful props to Chevy!😅🔥
C5 and C6 definitely under rated, hopefully you come across a C5! One of the first things that came across my mind as well in the last 2 years was the bargain of 2000's era sports classics all around.
If you own a stock C6 Z06, seriously look into having the heads done. No crate LS7's being built by GM.
Right now, I am trolling in the C4 man. Definitely dream of a C6 no doubt.
C6 is one of the best Corvettes ever built. Totally Awesome!💯💯💯🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
I've got an LS2 Z51 built to 550hp, and that is an amazing amount of fun.
My 2007 Z06 LS7 is loud but not that loud. Sounds sweet
Been my dream car for awhile now. I currently have a 2015 Cadillac ATS premium performance RWD with the 3.6 and up dor sale to buy a C6 Z06! I prefer black but that yellow is a close second! Lol. Car in video is perfect
A stroker c6Z putting down 850whp all motor sounds like alot of fun
Which recaro seats? Which model/part number?
Thank you for skipping the whole new balance/jorts boomer thing. Great review! Sounds amazing and looks like such a blast to drive.
New dream car unlocked
Sure the driver of the C8 rolling right alongside this car at a street light will NEVER hear the cam lope. The perfect sleeper!
Yellow is the best color. What you mean you don't like yellow
Looking to get me a c5 in a year or 2. One of these would be great though
That. Sound. 🤤
The engine sound is perfect. I've tried many exhaust combinations on my c6z. Can you share what setup he has after the kooks headers? Those look like corsa extreme mufflers but curious aboit cats and X or H pipe. Tell me and i'll buy it all tomorrow!
Got scat rods and Mahle pistons in my 2110cc vw bug. 😝
im daily driving a c6 i just picked up, thompson motorsports 427 stroker and its manual, incredibly fun and i get way better MPG than my fbo v2 sedan did lol now all i need is a set of new balance grass stained shoes and jorts
Nothing beats the sound of an American V8.
I have a 2008 jet stream blue love the car head done Katech Lot of up grades
It's just laughing so menacingly at idle. Fuckn fantastic
JIANGGAI Car Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Fit For Chevy Corvette C6 2006-2011 Z06 ZR1 Ergonomic Hand Grip Perfoated Leather. I ordered this wheel from Amazon and it's a definite driver mod that I'm over the moon about. It makes my C6 Z feel more under my control whether driving 10mph or a lot more. Nice ride!!
Thought ive seen this on racing greeds dyno. Nice
In my humble opinion, The C6 ZR1, C6 ZO6 and C7 ZR1 are the best three Corvettes in the modern era. In that order. That pushrod LS7 427 motor and the LS9/LT5 6.2L supercharged V8 with a cross-plane crankshaft. Exhilarating low-end torque, unbelievable power, and lightning quick acceleration are just some of the amazing feats in these cars. Ford has absolutely nothing on these beasts.
Based on the sound alone. Gets me thumbs up….finally a rowdy. Nasty sound you can hear on my crappy speakers, in person? Good lord. ………..ty. Algorithms
I have a 2011 Z06 with stock LS7 (heads rebuilt) and Maggie Heartbeat blower. Smooth TQ curve. 500 plus wheel TQ from 2500 RPM and equal peak HP and TQ. Idles like stock, stump pulling TQ from off idle like stock cause... is stock. Talk about easy to drive.
Yellow C6 Z06 is 🔥
My C6 Z06 have the same Corsa Extreme Z06 exhaust and it is loud!
Luv it 4 daily driving but the2019 zr1 for investing and prestige ❤❤❤❤
God that sound 🤤
Best corvette body style imo.
12:32 was just perfect
The sound!
This is my favorite corvette.
Nice sled, 600 WHP, the engine and suspension have been tweaked just s touch, well done
My base has those same wheels are those z06 wheels tho?
The C6 Z06 is the best corvette the best ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the price is incredible bargain for what you are getting!
I agree. The c7 isn't nearly as good looking

@@gordocarbo small run of early LS7s and a very low percentage of those let loose. I’ve owned two ‘06 models and neither of them let loose.
@@gordocarbo that is with any car
Great car even stock.
440 all motor FTW!
11:47 I was going to get an M5 but realized they need new main caps after 120k miles. Nothing beats built over bought. I have seen C3 Vettes come back in modern style however sometimes get tired of the same ol same ol factory cars still trying to wow us. 11:47.
We need a starting sound, we need acceleration sound, and redline sound.
Quick shift sound would be great notification sound for mobile devices. :D
Liked and comment for the algos. Great vid!
Soon as he said "bilschtein"... i was done🤣
It's absolutely a great video for someone like myself who has the CTS V and wants a corvette with a manual, which is my only disappointment with the 2018 CTS V models.
Disappointed at my1st ride in a V...the tire/road noise was as bad as a Honda. NIce looking cars though
@gordocarbo What year was the V and what type of tired because all season tires are cery noisy, I find the summer tires by Michilan sport cup 2 summer tires are rather quiet. Mines had some bs Potenza tires on it when I bought it. I got rid of those after a month
Sabelts are such a win
How much did he put into it already with the cam etc ?
What a Beast
Subscribing bc of the intro
Sweet car
How do you like the DRM bilstein shocks? I heard they are a little too stiff for street but are really good for track. I am considering a set for my vette. What is your overall opinion regarding the DRM's specifically?
If you have concerns about different environments, check out the Viking double adjustables.
Bro gave me the dose of america I needed this week.
I have a gen 5 LT1 and im going from 6.2L to 7.2L on my rebuild :)
