Us zt-t
Well finally I will be able to visit family in the US at Christmas!
and more importantly to the club while I'm there I have the opportunity to Visit Shrader Performance inc in North Carolina which just happens to be a 30 min drive from my sons home for anyone that may not know they have "acquired" two ZT-T 260's one of which has already been fitted with a 5 litre Coyote engine plus all the other bits needed to make it go I've arranged to visit and been offered a tour round the place so I intend to ask lots of questions and take lots of photographs which hopefully I will post up here for you all to see, I believe (but I might be wrong) it's currently knocking out about 700 HP. |

Please keep us posted.
I have been following Schrader on Facebook and have been impressed by what I've seen. Their Coyote project is one reason I went for a V6 ZT-T as opposed to a 260. My reasoning was that I wouldn't be able to resist modding the V8 and would end up deeply in debt and sleeping in the car after my wife kicked me out!

They are on Facebook as Shrader Performance
Just today they posted an ad to sell a race trailer. They showed the teaser picture below. Apparently the ZT-T 700(-ish) isn't part of the deal. [IMG][/IMG]

Least with it being a tourer you'd have room to stretch out in the back.

Very nice. Video of it idling : https://www.facebook.com/shradertuni...3655148305790/
At the end maybe Rick changed the dial faces for the previous owner? |
