Experience the perfect blend of classic American muscle and modern performance with this Pro Touring ‘79 Corvette. This car has been meticulously upgraded to excel in drag racing, autocross, and road course events. Here’s what sets this Corvette apart:
**Engine & Performance: ** – **383 Stroker**: Built for exceptional power and reliability. Aluminum heads, roller valve train, 1.6 rockers, Clay Smith cam, 10-1 comp, forged pistons, I beam rods, Holley 750 DP, chrome water pump, Edelbrock Air Gap intake, …
– **B&M Turbo 350 with 2500 stall and stage 2 shift kit**: Ensures smooth and robust performance with solid shift points. (The car was a 4 speed car. The clutch has been tucked up and left in for easy conversion back to a 4 speed. Reason for the trans swap is I wear a prosthetic on my left leg, so, no clutch for me)
– **373 Rear End**: Optimized for acceleration and top speed.
– **MSD Digital 6 Plus**: Provides reliable and powerful ignition performance. 2 stage rev limit, 1 stage retard.
– **Nitrous System with Controller and touch screen**: Adjustable 50-300 shot for customizable power boosts. Leave bigger jets in and control how much you want, when and how you want it. Nitrous system and MSD are not currently hooked up but are installed. I didn’t plan to hook up nitrous until the car has been shaken down and proven solid. So, no nitrous has gone through the engine. Safety first.
**Modifications:**
– **KYB Gas adjust shocks**: Enhanced handling and stability for various racing disciplines. The car rides very well (solid but not too solid) while staying flat in the corners.
– **Wilwood manual brake conversion**: Superior stopping power to match the car’s performance.
– **Flow tech Headers, 3” custom stainless true duals with 6” round Magnaflow mufflers**: Improved airflow and an aggressive sound. Car sounds amazing with a beautiful chop.
– ** Borgeson Steering pump and all new steering linkage**
– ** New 255-60-15’s squared, also have a full set of Hoosier track tires 245-30-15 good for a season.

– ** The car has been completely rewired with relocated fuse box for easy access. Heater box, venting, A/C pump, rad, and all lines and hoses removed. Flip up headlights have been fixed closed, added driving lights installed in the grill. Absolutely all vacuum has been deleted.
**Interior & Exterior:**
– **Race-Inspired Interior**:
– Features fully custom hand made aluminum door panels, dash cluster, center cluster, center consol (I’ve left raw aluminum for now but in the future was planning on wrapping everything in black with removable door lever, pull handle, window control plate, shifter plate and ignition panel pieces pollished and mounted on top of the black material), Kirkey race seats (still has shoulder belt as i didnt get to harness bar and straps), all new gauges, GPS speedo, AFR gauge, toggle ignition, push button start, fan override, line lock, nitrous system, and back up camera all on toggles. Custom interior and some mechanical work done by MetalMorphasis Fabrication in Kamloops **Additional Features:**
