Hey Corvette fans, Can you believe that the beloved ZR-1 is back!
That's right 620 fire breathing Horsepower and stump pulling 600 lb/ft of torque. Wow! If that is not Corvette Excitement I don't think I know what is.
The New for 09 Corvette ZR-1 will accelerate from 0-60 in around 3.5 seconds and should do the quarter mile in about 11 seconds flat. How's that for numbers!
We all know that the "regular" Corvette has become the Bogey for the rest of the sports car world to compare themselves against. From quality and durability to value and Exhilaration, there is no beating the Corvette.
The Z06 ups the ante to another level that embarrasses many exotics like Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche at a price that screams "Bang for your buck"
So where does this ZR-1 fit in? Well, my friends this new ZR-1 will take on the extreme exotics of the world and beat them at their own game. The ceramic brakes are similar to what you would see on the $1 million plus Bugatti Veryon!
We have to thank GM Management for allowing such a car to exist from the Corvette Lead Engineer, Tom Wallace, right up to Rick Wagoner, the CEO of GM.
So what about the details of that Go Power:
The LS9 engine, interestingly enough, is based more on the "base" LS3 engine rather than the LS7, Z06 Engine. 76% of the parts are interchangeable.
The all-new blower is provided by Eaton and is the sixth in its series of Roots-type superchargers. This Twin Vortices Series rides between the cylinder banks, making max boost of 10.5 psi, and Chevy claims an increase in efficiency and noise reduction over past superchargers. An air-to-liquid intercooler sits on top of the supercharger. By lowering the engine inside the car, engineers were able to avoid the telltale hood bulge required for most superchargers. As a result, hood height only increases an inch, although there is little space between the outside of the hood and the engine. The LS9 uses a forged steel crank and pistons and has a lower 9.1:1 compression ratio compared with the 10.7:1 ratio of the LS3. The connecting rods are titanium, like the LS7's. The LS3 and the LS9 have identical valve diameters, but the blown engine gets titanium intake and sodium-filled steel exhaust valves. This ZR-1 will be capable of nailing 60mph in first gear! It will come with only a 6 speed manual Tremec unit with very close ratios.
This car will also have Fat tires to assist with handling and acceleration times. The ZR1 gets 285/30-19s up front and 335/25-20s at the rear.
This car will proudly display weight reducing carbon fiber components, although the ZR-1 is expected to weigh in about 150 pounds heavier. No big deal, when one takes into consideration the additional performance that has been engineered in. Take for example the fact that GM says the ZR1 will be first to offer clear-coat carbon-fiber exterior panels designed to last the life of the car. The chemical additive in the clear-coat costs more than $60,000 a gallon, officials say.
So this "standard Corvette" will top 200 mph and will also top the $100,000 mark - still an unbelievable value by any stretch.
Have you placed your order yet? You better! Production starts in July and Chevrolet is planning on building only about 2000 a year. The first cars should be available for delivery around the September time frame.

What you Need to Know When Buying a Car
A car is an investment. Whatever your reason is for buying one, it is important that you get the car that suits you. Some would buy just for the sake of having one. Then suddenly you will realize you actually did not have the right one for you.
It is prudent to compare vehicles when planning what to buy. By doing this, you will know which is good, better, best, bad, worse or worst.
There are certain things to consider when comparing vehicles. One is the cargo volume or the so called luggage capacity. It is referred to as the volume in the trunk/area behind the seats. So when talking about maximum cargo volume, this refers to the volume when the rear seats are bent over, and when the storage bins are full in capacity. The cargo volume is moderately important to buyers since some would probably be filling their vehicles with pieces of luggage, bags of grocery items and other cargo every now and then.
As a car buyer, you need to know about power-to-weight ratio. From the term itself, it suggests some mathematical equations, but not really as difficult as those during your school years. The ration is derived from a vehicle's horsepower as related to its weight. Power-to-weight ratio is congenial when there is greater horsepower and lower weight. While looking for the right vehicle, keep in mind that the horsepower figure is just a part of the performance equation. If you are concerned with the performance of your car when accelerating, better consider the car’s power-to-weight ratio.
You definitely would want safety in you car, right? Electronic stability control or traction control spells it all. This system is composed of radars and detectors that inform the driver when a future crash can happen; the brake system is not functioning well; when the wheels are not properly align; and so on.
Nowadays, there are several vehicles in the market that have this electronic stability control/traction control. This is to ensure further comfort, excellent driving and safety while on the road.
The resale value should also be considered in comparing cars. This is referred to as your vehicle’s future value. This can be affected by several things such as the amount of mileage you have put on it or the number of times it experienced accidents.
The resale value is one of the factors because it is important that you pay the right amount for your car. If it had been in several accidents, it implies less cost. If it had never been in an accident, it might definitely cost high because its value is not yet much deteriorated.
For practical buyers, this is the most important thing to consider.
Another thing to keep in mind when comparing is the car’s turbocharger. It is a supercharger unit that is powered by an exhaust-fed turbine under acceleration. The turbine commands a pump to give more air into the cylinders when called upon. In effect, a better pick up is experienced. Turbo, which are manufactured during the “not so high technology era”, were infamous for fall between the time the accelerator was pressed and the time the boost was felt. Furthermore, the boost would spike suddenly without a straight response. On the other hand, turbo that are manufactured in the “very high technology era” generally perform better in both aspects.
A car expert knows that greater air supply through the engine is a must. In this matter, a supercharger gives a big help. Commonly called as “blower”, a supercharger is a compressor that pushes more air into the car’s engine than it would ordinarily capture. Generally speaking, this term technically applies to all types of compressors even turbochargers. However, it is also commonly referred to the mechanically driven units. And since they are always functioning, the turbo do not experience lags and peaks. And this is good news, right? So better compare analytically the vehicles’ supercharger.
Another thing to consider is the curb weight. It is the most appropriate way of measuring a vehicle’s weight. This is referred to as a car’s drag with all its standard equipment and fluids onboard such as gas, oil, coolant, etc., which cumulatively account for more pounds than what you usually know.
Finally, but certainly not the least priority in comparing cars, the vehicle identification number (VIN). It is a code of letters and numbers reveals the manufacturer and where it was made and when. It further goes along with other miscellaneous details. This is more important in used vehicles in order to investigate its reported history.
If you are looking for a BMW car, every single detail is written in the BMW manual.

blower motor question?
dont call me stupid im only an 18 year old grease monkey. and i still have alot to learn. im looking to put a 5.9 liter 360 small block into my dodge and i want to add as much horsepower as i can afford. im just curious, do i need to buy a full supercharger kit or cani just put on a blower motor?? i dont know much about superchargers.
thanx
i think i might be deeply mistaken... do blowers/blower motors have anything to do with superchargers??
ok well can i just buy a blower motor or do i need to buy the whole supercharger kit
ok first off the kit is coming with the gaskets, pulleys, and belts. i guess if you want to buy them seperately then go ahead. but probably cheaper to go with the kit. second off a blower is a supercharger. different terms. a turbocharger and a supercharger are different though.
