The car looks good. What is the suspension setup?

I'll defer to the Chevy High Performance article from awhile back:

That car is absolutely gorgeous, and of course I'm partial to the wheel selection. But I have to ask... Is LS Fest not limited to just LS engines? Unless he's changed it, the pictures on the Forgeline site show an SBC in there I believe...

Danny switched to an LS motor right before Columbus goodguys.Man I love this vette.The Forgeline wheel's really top it off.

Ah, that makes sense. I too love this car. That's my favorite body-style Vette, and if I built one, it would almost be a replica of this car. Would be a nice sister to TOW. :)

Yes, car was LS swapped in a week before the Columbus GG event and we have been sorting the car for further PT/GG events....it is coming around :)

Lingenfelter built a destroked LS7 at my request for this car , using some of my existing pieces, car lost a bit of weight and gained a fare amount of power and engine speed capability. Now I just have to make the rear of the car more bullet proof. Currently it is like a prize fighter with a glass jaw...It will be fixed before Indy GG.

That car sounded so friggin awesome. It had a distinct race car sound that revved very quick. Had a distinct sound like no other car at ls fest
