I can't wait to see Callaway's version of this! 1038rwhp. Granted its a regular c6 but it has a 427!!!

Ouch, man did that thing build power quick or what :crazy . Great vid surf

I think the worlds fastest C6 belongs to Lingenfelter right now

thats not very impressive to say the least out of a big bore/stroked LSx motor on SLICKS. even the most radical setups you would think of old school setups LSx Tuners now can tune them so they are very streetable shifting at 6800 rpm's or less and make that kind of power in a 346. 11.5:1 compression ratio on pump gas.

Callaway aren't gods to performance but damn give us something that will impress us! don't give us the run of the mill big motor more HP theory. TT that biatch and let'er Rip! my friends mild mannered 434 in his C5 vert ran very similar numbers so why pay for only a 414 when you could get the big motor more hp with street manners that idles like a stock 346 that can do the same thing at the same costs?

...there are currently NO known C6's faster

Mic, I totally disagree withyou on many accounts here, as it is indeed impressive to have a C6 that fast today - not next week, next month, or even next year - we are talking about NOW :crazy

Do you know of any other C6's running as fast, or even close??
I saw one run on slicks, an et close, but not quite - they had a load of NOS in the car too... There was also another C6 in the high, high, high 10's however, I think they had a load of something else propeling that car, as there has to be more to their "list" of mods :ugh

As far as a TT Callaway C6, I think they are waiting for a car to put the engine into - they had one up and running in their development program more than a few months ago :eek

it was also noted that this car (Carlisle Callaway C6) won not only the drags that day, but also the autocross - the trifecta didn't materialize, as the triple crown would have had to come in the form of the car show and the C 3 6 isn't a waxer

Enjoy

...not saying it won't be quick, but -

without a time slip, dyno numbers are just a nice bragging point - ...just ask the (Toyota) Supra (forums) community :ugh

I have to disagree as well. I dont' know who built your buddies 434, but Im going to say it would be hard pressed to last as long w/o breaking as the Callaway motor. Yea there are faster times out there....by cars that almost lose their power brakes at idle b/c the damn cam is so big that vacuum is lost. That is not a street car. Something with a smooth idle at TRUE idle speed impresses me more than the radical cam idle at 1300rpm C5s we see alot of the time.

Remember this car is knocking down times faster than an Enzo with the street manners of a stock C6.

Chris i'm not knocking the car one bit. all i'm implying is i would expect more from Callaway that is all. BTW another friend of mine has a low low 11 second high 10 second stock 6 liter bottom end A4 C6 with just heads cam and is a daily driver from cartek. you'll never see his dyno sheets or see it at a track running times since he street races this car alot. believe me NA it's a quick mofo and very impressive.

for all pratical purposes it's not that hard to build a streetable 500 rwhp C6. it's still a LSx based motor. it's all in the tune and not necissarily the parts per say. the 434 in question was built by East Coast Supercharging and was very midly mannered. if your talking #'s put a cam in a C6 Z06 and with only 13 more cubes you'd see mid 10 second time slips very easily and it would run just as smooth as the callaway with a good tuner tuning it i'm sure. with cnc'ed heads that flow 360+ from the factory at .600" lift all you would need is a cam and maybe headers along with slicks.

These times were just to get some baseline runs. I haven't driven a car like this at the track in YEARS!
Sit down, get yourself a drink, and enjoy the sights and sounds of a 434CID LS6 running on pump gas moving down the track. The last run is an aborted N20 run, unfortunately YOURS TRULY missed 4th fear. Never did get a complete run with the N20 :sadsmiley02:
Enjoy! :headbang:

Those track runs were not the best either. The track was like an ice skating rink in the morning so all the morning runs were garbage. Very few people had traction.

When I finally started to get some decent runs, the 60' times where only high 1.6's and I pegged the rev limiter once on each run

. I think the car had a serious 10.5 in it if I ever got a "perfect" run. Imagine if this was their killer 447 engine?

On that one N20 run, I hit it in the top of second and my 1/8 mph went from 101 to 108! That was going to be one hell of a run if I didn't miss 4th.

Josh do you know much about LSx motors? You can't go with big cams in these motors with out serious internal work due to valve to piston clearance. the way they make HP isn't valve lift it's duration. with that beign said you can cut valve reliefs in the piston for additional clearance but since we are talking about 100 more cfm flow on the same cid it's only a bigger cam compared to a L98/LT1 motor due to less cfm being moved thru the motor. nothing new here. if the stock motor per cid for SB1 to SB2 is putting more air in and out then a bigger cam will not affect it like a SB1 motor. lets say you run 240/240 duration and .580"/.580" lift on a 112 lsa on a 350 SB1 and the same cam on a 346 LS1 you'd get a chop low vacuum SB1 motor and the LS1 would just be loving that cam and making incredible HP still holding some street manners let alone running the same cam in a 414 cid LSx motor it would be very midley mannered.

i still wanna see one of you guys build a banging long block 383/406 combo with a set of 23* race heads and see what your callaways would pull down. i bet it would pull 600 to the wheels easy. add road race coil overs and brembo brakes on a Z51 car and that Enzo don't look very impressive now does it?

Not saying others can't or don't make a decent package however, please understand that there is currently NO OTHER Naturally Aspirated C6 that is quicker (and I have yet to hear of a forced induction car presenting a timeslip as well).
The car (Carlisle Callaway C6) is totally streetable and will pass emissions - that was one of the goals and Lance as I understand, got tags for the car a few weeks ago :cool
Plenty of quasi-street cars out there that would kill every mosquito around from its fumes and idle like a chopper, no thanks - I'll pass...
On one day at the track, there was a car from Cartek and another from Vette Doc's, also an LPE based car too - although they were all C5's, there were clearly built and tuined, some had strokers and more...

At the end of the day, they all went home after seeing the same view...
