This custom 1969 Chevrolet Corvette is powered by a Nelson Racing Engines modified 502ci GM 8-cylinder engine. It is modified with a custom Nelson hydraulic roller camshaft, heads that have been port-matched to the intake and polished, a custom timing chain and gear set using a LS 58x crank sensor and a 4x cam sensor with remote mounted coil packs. It is also equipped with McJacks headers and an Allen stainless-steel side-exit exhaust with reproduction OEM side-pipe covers. A Vintage Air front runner is utilized for the engine accessories and a Holley HP ECM controls all engine functions. The firewall was filled and modified to accommodate the engine being set back 2 inches. The engine is backed by a Tremec TKO600 5-Speed manual transmission that is fitted with carbon-fiber synchronizers, a Quick Time steel bellhousing, McLeod RST twin-disc clutch and Tilton hydraulic throw-out bearing. This example rides on its original frame that has been seam-welded and refinished in Satin Black.
