Engine Dress-Up - Stainless

The Corvette C6 is the result of six generations of innovation and craftsmanship. From 2005-2007 the C6 featured a 6 liter LS2 V8 engine that delivered 400 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 400 lb-ft torque at 4400 rpm. In 2008 a new LS3 V8 engine set out to deliver 430 hp and 424 lb-ft torque. Don't forget about the all powerful handmade LS7 and the factory Super Charged LS9 either! 

The Corvette's history dates back to the muscle cars of the late 1960's. The latest model, the Corvette C6, was introduced in 2005. At the time, the engine in the C6 was a six-liter LS2 V8, but this was upgraded to an LS3 V8 version in 2008. It now delivers 430 horsepower and 424 pound-foot torque. Also available are the hand built LS7 and factory super-charged LS9 engines. 

Whatever engine you have in your Corvette C6, a few modifications can make it something special. C6 Corvette engine parts range from replacement air filters than can increase horsepower and acceleration to long tube headers that boost torque and performance. Other modifications available include color-matched fuel rail covers and carbon fiber intake manifolds. You can choose the parts you want to make your Corvette a one-of-a-kind sportscar. 

Go beyond the most common customizations and choose C6 Corvette engine parts that improve even the smallest aspects of your engine's performance. These include Corvette oil catch cans, specially-designed engine mounts and high performance Corvette spark plugs. Improvements like these can also make your Corvette handle better and become a show piece wherever you take it. 

It is important to remember that modifications to your C6 engine can stress the original factory parts. Coolant and oil systems that weren't designed to run at such high horsepower can break down much faster than intended. If you replace C6 Corvette engine parts with those designed to boost performance and horsepower, it's a good idea to also replace these component parts. Not only will you increase performance, you may well extend the life of your Corvette. 

Modifying your Corvette is one of the most satisfying parts of owning one of these powerful machines. Better overall performance, smoother handling and an engine growl that will turn heads anywhere you go are the reasons many Corvette owners consider purchasing their car as only the first step toward owning a unique sports car that will always be noticed.
