98 corvette C5 6 speed with a supercharged LME408 stroker motor, kooks long tube headers with x pipe and borla stingers cat back exhaust, McLeod RXT Street Twin Disc Clutch, Tick Performance Remote Clutch SPEEDbleeder Line, Spec flywheel, MSD boost a pump, 42 pound injectors, Locking header bolts, two aftermarket gauges for fuel pressure and boost, and lowered on stock bolts. The car also has a roll cage and five point harnesses the car has not been raced when i bought the car with the stock motor the owner had the roll cage and harnesses in it. I put the motor in which is a $10,000 motor built to handle up to 1000rwhp and the supercharger that was a $7,000 setup. The car is in good condition with 750rwhp. It has only 54k on the car and only 1k with this new motor. The motor was sent out to LME and rebuilt about 1k miles ago and ran me $4,500 this motor is freshly built and the clutch was just put in 350 miles ago. Have receipts for everything. Also the car has brand new front tires on it and the rears have about 90% tread. Recently i put in a new wheel bearing. The car doesn’t have the tire pressure monitors in the wheels but i do have 5 of them that will go with the car when it sells.

Here are the details on the motor and supercharger;

LME 408 engine
408" Iron Balanced, blue printed and assembled short block.
Eagle 4.0" crankshaft
Lunati Pro Mod 6.125" I beam rods
Wiseco 4.030" custom forged pistons w lateral gas ports
ARP main studs
ET Performance 245cc CNC ported cylinder heads.
Ferrea 2.080" int. 1.600" exh. valves
Comp 977 dual valve springs
Titanium retainers
Cam Motion custom LS1 camshaft 238 249 114lsa
LS1/ LS2 Billet Main Caps
Cometic MLS head gaskets 4.085" x .051"
ARP 1/2 LS1 head studs
Roll master double roller timing set w/ torington bearing & nitrided gears.
GM LS7 hydraulic roller lifters
LS1 push Rods Comp cams
LS1 windage tray/ picup tube
Melling 10295 high pressure, coated oil pump/ ported

The Super charger is a D1SC that has a 3.7' pulley and is putting out right
around 12psi of boost.

There are a few cosmetic things with the car that could be fixed
1. The glass top has the normal c5 problem with the clear coming off a little bit.
2. The back bumper has some light scratches in it and a small crack.
3. Driver’s seat has some normal wear for a 98 put a picture up for you to see.

These are the only problems with the car. Mechanically it is great with no problems I took the car on a 14hr trip about 800 miles the car ran and worked perfect wouldn’t be scared to drive it across the country. On the trip I still got around 22-23 mpg with having 750rwhp that is defiantly a plus. Other than the few little things that I have mentioned the car is in really good shape. I’m sure there are some other things that I have forgot to mention that have been done to the car it is fully built i have seen the same motor from LME with a different blower setup that put down well over 1000rwhp. The car has great drivability and handles like it is on rails. The only reason I am selling the car is because I am looking into getting a diesel truck so i might entertain offers to trade for a newer 4 wheel drive diesel. Give me a call at 315-244-8956 with any questions or you can shoot me a PM on here and I will get back asap. Thank You

Asking $25,995
