Chevrolet planned to build one hundred Grand Sport Corvettes in 1963. Only five ever left the factory, and all five still survive in private hands today. That’s just the beginning of the story of the second-generation Corvette’s five model years, which moved from a one-year-only split rear window to a factory 427 so powerful Chevrolet wouldn’t put the real horsepower number on paper. Read on to find out how the Sting Ray earned its reputation.
A single 102mm turbo would already turn heads in most parking lots, but this Mustang runs two of them side by side, chasing horsepower numbers that put it firmly in Pro Mod territory rather than daily-driver territory. Getting there means a built short block, upgraded fueling, custom ECU tuning, and an intercooler sized to handle serious heat, since no factory Mustang was ever engineered around hardware like this. Read on to find out just how much power a combination like this can actually put down.
