2001 Corvette with 570 HP Lingenfelter LS2 Engine - $17,500

This is definitely not your stock C5! Although the 570 HP Lingenfelter LS2 engine sacrifices power to the Rossler 4L65E auto transmission, it’s still putting an impressive 455 HP and 436 foot-pounds of torque to the rear wheels (dyno tested 1/21/21). This link is to an online review from 2017: https://ls1tech.com/articles/dyno-lingenfelter-ls2-corvette-roars/ o For street/highway driving and autocross, it’s ridiculously fun to drive! o If drag racing is your thing, the original owner modified it for that purpose (DTE Stage 2 differential with hardened shaft, Vigilante 3200 torque converter, etc.), and it turned sub-11.8 quarters. o What it is definitely not intended for is sustained high speeds on track; I discovered after I bought it in 2018, during HPDE/PDX events with 15-20 minute sessions, that the 4L65E auto transmission starts complaining about overheating after about 13-15 minutes of serious thrashing. If you plan to race it on track, you’ll need to replace it with a manual. The engine was completely rebuilt, with racing parts, in July 2019, at 123,679 miles – right at 6,000 miles ago. The battery is brand new. I truly love this loud-and-proud, snarling beast of a car, but at 76 I’ve decided (with considerable input from my wife) that it’s time to pass it on to someone who’s a bit younger. It’s in great shape, as far as I know; with old cars it’s impossible to predict when a gremlin might pop up! I’ve invested a lot of money in it since I bought it in 2018, and I’m not going to give it away; if you’re looking for a bargain, there are plenty of inexpensive C5s available with the original 350HP LS1 engine.
