CORBRETTA is born!

[IsaacHayes]

daily driver. That's what I like to hear!! Headers and exhaust and maybe p&p are reliable. A set of Z06 heads/cam would be factory "relaible" as well. Not sure about SLP head/cam package, but it's supposed to make like 498hp with exhaust, and have a linear power curve. Not sure how stressfull that setup is on the valvetrain...

I say put some Walker Quiet Flows on it....  Whattya say about dual 3 inch mufflers that make no noise.....  

[zach82]

That would be funny, but I think it'll be even funnier to roll up to someone with a Beretta with a loud v8 loping idle  

[IsaacHayes]

yah, it will be a sleeper just because it will look like a beretta on top... You want to show off & hear the sweet V8 sound so loud exhaust or medium loud is a must!! mmmm v8 sound.

Hey electric cutouts are for when you want to let them know they've been had.....  That's after you bait them with no noise....

Here are a few shots of the IP wiring harness and the lift off of the frame rails.  And my father using an almost $30K tractor instead of a $200 engine hoist.

Pics of the frame that was lifted off, close-up of the engine and rolling gear, and finally be hauled back to an awaiting Beretta with a special escort.

Wow, I feel sorry for you having to sort through that wiring harness.    I hate wiring, and that just looks like a nightmare.

Btw, is that the factory spare? Cause if that is, that's just crazy  

[Norm 88GT]

I spent extra time labeling everything, especially loose pig-tails.  

No spare is offered for the C5.  My GTO spare bolted up.

Thats one destroyed bell housing.

How much to replace it?

[Norm 88GT]

Not sure on the bell housing cost.  With it broke I was concerned about the torque tube pulling out, that is why it was strapped together.  But it held solid for the truck ride.
