Literally a future classic

I know a guy with a fun one, and a totally stock for future collectors one

The 5.7 really comes alive with an OTR intake and a tune, my vz made 242 kw at the rears with rear exhaust and no cats and otr intake was alot of fun. If you look up the intake manifold numbers and you dont have the ls6 one ( came factory on the vy onwards? ) they are also a good cheap upgrade
