Duntov Turbo Corvette

Admittedly, it has been awhile since I'd heard of one of these cars still being around.  After all, when they came out, I was a mere 6 years old and my parents had just sold their '68 Corvette drop-top (327 4-speed w/tons of work done to it).  As such, I wasn't too interested in the "late model" sharks.  Guess ignorance hurt me there because I missed out on the really nerdy details of this little eBay gem.




Fast forward to today where quite possibly my favorite sound on the planet is the sound of a turbo'd V8.  Granted, this car is rolling with some pretty old tech but that is why the good old checkbook is for, right?  Some brief specs:



350 cu. in. L84, 8.2:1 compression ratio
4 barrel carb, Martin Turbocharger
7psi, 144+ mph top speed through an automatic

I think Zora would be proud to see this car in such pristine shape after all of these years.
