Clutches are one thing. Fact that the rest of the DCT holds up is wonderful.
A lot of R&D! Thanks Steve and all the team!
Fueltech 💪💪💪
As a tech this is so appreciated.
Most people have no clue how time consuming just getting your values and wiring correct.
Keep rambling cause viewers want the details 🤘🤘 LMR BEST IN THE FREAKING WORLD 💪
958 at the tires is anazing! Mid engine and driveable! Worth every $$!!
GM has not done any Performance Shop any favors with the ECM lock. Time for someone to send in a spy or get a girlfriend to make them talk. LOL Steven is not giving up and he show's that he wants to be the leader in the C8 modding platform. Thumbs up!
Yup. Callaway has been granted dealer rights to the ECM as an authorized Chevy Mfgr, so they also have been granted rights to tune with the ECM. Bet anything somehow, something there leaks out, and tuners begin to be able to really unlock C8’s.
😂
You Guy's are so dedicated and very good and best at your trade. Congratulations job well done. You are number one!
LMR knows that they are doing! 🤙🏼
LMR once again setting the bar high! Great job boys, the dedication to getting it dialed just right is impressive and I'm sure not easy, well done!
Got a C8 and gonna be in Houston in the next couple weeks can’t wait to see what you guys have done with this!
The best shop out and out of Texas. I'm coming to you guys real soon.
You guys are legends keep banging out these awesome jobs!!!
Not boring at all, awesome to see what you guys have to go through to make the C8 modable, you guys kick ass, awesome work👍
Dang Steve, you're killing it! Keep it up! Super excited to see this thing completed!
Love your intro. Such a great look at your business! Enjoyed all the excitement of being around a C8. Great vid.
I’m so happy to see the progress of the C8! 🔥🔥🔥 Looking forward to more R&D and possibly 1500 HP. Nice work gentlemen!
The car is an absolute beast ! Great job Steven and crew !
Nice work guys!
Great video! I love your passion, it really shows through.
Awesome
Huge congrats!
Didn't used to like lmr from there whole street outlaw debut but I'll tell you what man you guys make great content
Haha that’s TV for ya
Best is the business right Der. Get sum!!!
Watch out Emilia😉🔜This will be sitting next to your C8 and we will see who has the word record C8. It’s all in good fun .👍🏽
She does 99 percent of her own shit. TJ payin for shit
Hope to see this thing run an 8 soon!
Quickest c8 hands down😳😱🤯
This is getting exciting! Nothing like adding a deadline. Looking forward to the followup video!
Absolutely! It’s sooo close. It’ll be worth it.
@@LateModelRacecraft what fuel was used on these dyno pulls
Cannot wait to see you break 1500hp!~
TJ will love it!! He will love it even more if you figure out a way to get a cup holder back in there!!! lmao... surprised he went with that
I knew you guys could do it !!!
SUMBITCH 🤩🤩😎😎😎i love this!
I just want to see you get the record for the fastest C8 in the world and keep it for a long time
LFG!
Love how you use the factory wiring in your builds.
A roots blower would look nice under the glass, Ford GT style
Impossible in a C8
3:21 I think would be a great challenge between you guys Anderson and Amelia, everybody are getting very good on this deal
ETS already owns the C8 1/4 mile world record.
😂 not what he’s talking about!
@@LateModelRacecraft my bad. That being said, I find it funny that nobody wants to acknowledge that ETS is way ahead of everybody else in the C8 game.
When you find out why that is, do share here!!
@@LateModelRacecraft what exactly do you want me to share? They own the world record. First in the 9s. First to make 1000HP. First to trap 150 mph in the 1/4 mile.

That car is too nasty 🔥
we need that record
We couldn’t agree with you more!
Sounds awesome, way better than E’s.
Thanks Danny!
I hope that someone cracks the ECM soon! Even a mild camshaft would let the horse's run!!
I cant even beleive it...unbelievable work. I'm up in Canada and am considering driving or trailering mine there to get it installed once its all clear. Whats the time frame to get it installed and get it out all done ans ready to roll, roughly of course.
I'll likely juat email you all as well, great work Steven.
Beast
DAMN!!!!
I'm just waiting to see how they compete with the 1300hp R8s and lambos at TX2k
With a clutch that holds the power, it will epic! 😎💪
@@LateModelRacecraft Absolutely!
Texas shit 🔥
How does this compare to Emilia's C8 she is building? Super curious. Top notch content from LMR as always !!!
My takeaway from all of this....... Dan is the true champion lol
3 cheers for Dan!
💪💪💪
Mike has to get one of these before his z06 comes in 😬
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
😎
Support the RPM act!
Are you going for Emelia's record? I really hope so. I wonder what they did differently for it to hold 1200+
Emelia did most of her own work on her C8. Not the same .. TJ just paid for his ... 👎🏽
Shooting 100 with always having a drink in his
Nothing you guys do is boring 😁
Awesome............#warmeds
Are you going to put a forced air chiller box in it?
17:15 is the best part
My question is when Chevy comes out with the C8 Z06 and the C8 ZR1 who is going to make the transmission and the clutch capable of holding the extra power? If Chevy (or a third party) is going to make them, wouldn't they already have them R&D'd & ready to go at this time? Or will the Z06 and ZR1 not be as powerful as what you are building and therefore the transmission & clutch will not be an issue?
are you guys excited about the z06 and new engine platform? What do you guys think will be the timeline on those to modify them and get into the systems and add more power? Ill be getting one and you guys are local.
When the Z06 comes out do u think you will have to start over with the different motor?
If they want to achieve over 1000hp then probably so. I don’t believe the zo6 with be boosted but rather n/a
Very cool. Just do not play with Plaid.
Ask Nick to dm me his cycle. Bro jacked.
Fuel tech is really leaving you guys in the dust, you’re gonna have to go straight to billet blocks to whoop them back. The original engine and ECU is too much to deal with
$100K for the car, $100K for the upgrades. $200K into the corvette & he pulls up next to a Tesla S Plaid $125K with 1000 hp ,straight out the gate, & instant tq & he whips your ass guaranteed!!!!
Need to crack the ecu it’s time for someone to let it out of the back door 🚪
If the stock clutch is slipping and not happy at 700 horsepower how are you making 950?
I wanna see some draggy times
What fuel is the car on during dyno pulls and street runs?
Is there a time in the day when you don't have a drink in your hand?
when you guys going supercgarge my 21 1le
Give Justin a call!
Nice, you still have to beat ms. E.
ETS already beat y'all to the punch. Another TH-camr chasing a legit shop...
Who built da fab turbos
He’s already leOsand bounds further along than Emelia’s! She still can’t quite get hers to launch constantly nor nearly as fast as it seems compared to gay first pull with TJ’s?
I know your team will get this C8 in the 8's. Then eventually you can go after beating all those Vitamix powered ho hum EV's that need 3 and 4 motors to hang with 1 mild American V8.
Lol buddy this car will NEVER be that fast, I don’t care how much hp you put down. Just can’t keep up with that instant torque
Damn, 2 years ago Tesla was testing 1100 HP at Nurenberg Ring..... I own a old style Banks Twin Turbo Corvette that 30 years ago was making 750HP and the new Plaid makes my mid 10 second Corvette OBSOLETE.... Face it guys, TESLA is ALIEN TECHNOLOGY (LOL) and the future of automotive racing, and the industry in general.... Learn to embrace it, not hate it!....Suggest you and your team start taking COMPUTER AND ELECTRICAL MOTOR classes, in less than 10 years, our current cars will be in museums!....Bank on it!
@@Owen-r2j Really? Do you get out much and ever go to a drag strip? Their are tons of ICE cars out there and the fastest cars at the track are not EV. So, you are saying there are no ICE cars going mid 8's and faster? Really? ICE Tech is far from dead as explained in the YT video Engineering Explained. There is F1 technology coming to the streets that will be a complete game changer. It will debut first on the Mercedes AMG ONE Hypercar, then the aftermarket companies like Garrett are coming out for anyone with the talent to install that F1 Tech on a street car. It makes an ICE instant off idle torque and massive top end. There are already plenty of streetable 8 and 7 and even 6 second cars that are reliable. So, it takes 3 or 4 blender motors to hang with what 1 ICE can do? Companies like Porsche and others have awesome tech coming out for ICE. They will get that C8 in the 8's. Watch. Emelia is just a nano second away. Stock bottom end engine. These guys know their stuff. Instant torque does not always win the race.
@@royrauch9775 Nice setup you got. So much more potential in that setup. It is very mild by todays standards.
@@yipe222 unfortunately there is just NO WAY for a truly streetable twin turbo to match Teslas.......
th-cam.com/video/JBVqygvinzw/w-d-xo.html
ESPECIALLY WITH THE 1100 HP Plaid plus is due soon and the Tesla Roadster with the STAR WARS option doing 0-60 in 1.1 seconds or less, and all for $250k.....without the JET PACK option cost is $200K...... How many hemi's, Cobra's and ZL1"s have had to be replaced when pushed beyond their limits?
TJ claims it’s faster than Emilias but he’s het to prove it.
Must have missed it. What fuel are you guys using? E85?
We run pump on main tank, then alcohol in front tank for port injection
@@LateModelRacecraft Interesting. Great work! Car is AWESOME! Can't wait to see some track numbers.
Wow this awesome do u guys have a number or a email I have my c8 that's stock I would love to talk to u guys and get a estimate on how much this would run me just wow guys very good stuff 😌👌
Hey Baloya! Give us a call Monday. 713.466.9900. Ask for Justin!
BORING ! DAN IS BORING LOL ,, Steven U The MEN at LMR , ARE G O A T "S Of ALL TIME ANYTHING U TOUCH GUY"S TOUCH TURNS 2 GOLD ! ,,,,,,,,,,,Keep RIPPING , IT & SEND IT , BROTHER STEVEN , THE MAN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can Justin fit and drive a corvette? 🤔
😂
Yep, Justin can probly fit, but adding all that extra weight …. Ummm, ER, muscle…may be difficult to to tune around. Sorry Justin! 😎
Where's your wife's Escalade?
You will see her in an upcoming video…… but not with the 2021 Escalade……. 🤔
Bro is some of this the same as last video?
Nope!
@@LateModelRacecraft oh, I've already seen TJ's dyno results. I wonder if that portion was in his video.. hmm.
Cut the bullshit, get a Plaid!
Stock tranny?!
Stock trans with different clutches
